PAINTING PROJECTS
The Public Works Facilities Division managed multiple
painting projects in the first quarter of FY18. These
included painting the exterior of Town Hall, the exterior of
the Luther Green Center and the adjoining shed, as well
as the roof on the playground gazebo at Morrisville
Community Park.
JEREMIAH STREET
The Streets Division of Public Works oversaw
improvements to the sidewalk pavers along
Jeremiah Street this quarter.
The pavers were originally installed by a
designer using a sand settling method that
eventually caused some of the bricks to loosen
over time. The improvements to re-set the
pavers in cement will eliminate movement and
allow for safer travel for pedestrians and
bicyclists along the sidewalks.
VOLUNTEERS
Students from Thales Academy
in Apex spent a day working with
Parks and Grounds staff to add
and spread mulch at Town Hall
and the Parks and Recreation
Administration building.
Working with teachers and par-
ent volunteers, the students,
many of whom live in Morrisville,
planted mums, pansies and other
fall plants. Students also pruned
back both the Indian Creek and
Shiloh Greenways. The school
had groups of students working
in several communities across
the region as part of their Day of
Service.
The
Administrative
Division
of
Public
Works worked on the
Town’s surplus backlog
this quarter, creating a
more organized and
functional work space.
