To the People of Buxton:
The Buxton Public Works Department consists of the Director, five full-time employees, a full-time
mechanic, a part-time Administrative Assistant, and two part-time seasonal employees who work during
the winter season.
The Public Works Department had a busy year helping with some special projects throughout the town.
Some of those projects included cleaning up town-owned property, re-siding one of the sand sheds, and
helping with Community Days.
I would like to thank the crew for another great year. The hard work and level of safety and skills they
show on every job is greatly appreciated. A special thank you to the two seasonal employees for helping
out with a very busy winter season. These positions are important to the department during the winter
months. I would like to acknowledge our part-time/on call plow driver, Andrew Townsend, for his long-
term dedication to the Town of Buxton. He has been a seasonal plow driver for Buxton Public Works for
over 30 years.
A special thanks to Larry Anderson for all he has done throughout the year, assisting our crew with road
maintenance as well as working to maintain Public Works vehicles and equipment. Additionally, Larry
maintains the vehicles and equipment for the Fire-Rescue Department and the Transfer Station.
The PublicWorks Department strives for a high standard in work ethic and public relations tomaintain the
respect of the Town’s people. I look forward to the coming year working closely with all town departments
and department heads. I believe working as a team we can accomplish anything.
