<br />REPORT FROM THE DIRECTOR OF THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
<br />Mr. Rollin Farrand, Director of the Department of Public Works, made his quarterly report to the
<br />Council. He talked about the annual report recently furnished the Council and filed with the City
<br />Clerk which had been prepared by the Department of Public Works. He felt his employees had done a
<br />great job, as well as other governmental employees. He indicated that organizational charts were
<br />included in the annual report which showed the 14 bureaus within the department. He indicated tha
<br />each bureau head had submitted a report on the respective bureau. He felt the problem of theft at
<br />the Municipal Services Facility had been taken care of, there had been some additional security
<br />measures taken, changes in the personnel system had been made, and the vandalism in the city's
<br />cemetery was reported. He stated that budget data was not included in detail although some dollar
<br />figures were given. He estimated that the city was saved a great deal of money because the
<br />department had not hired consultants for many projects but had done the work in- house. Council
<br />President Parent thanked Mr. Farrand for his presentation, and Councilman Taylor commended Mr.
<br />Farrand on the annual report, indicating that it was very substantial.
