Good Business
Teamwork makes the dream work! The Public Works and the Parks & Recreation departments collaborated to construct an ADA accessible ramp for the William Wall Memorial Park. A local couple requested the ramp for their son, who is wheelchair bound, so that he could access to the park. Public Works employees, Bill Schutter, Todd Lachenmayer, and Gary Collins expeditiously took the lead with the assistance of other Public Works staff and got the job done!
