Improved management and
accountability…
|
“The one thing I have tried to
instill is the need for better record keeping
for liability and budget issues. With
PubWorks when the mayor asks about the
cost of a resurfacing project, it is on his desk
in about 5 minutes. He loves it.”
Dave Schemansky, PE, Project Manager, City of
Green, Ohio
|
Being resourceful…
|
“I am an ex Arizona DOT
employee, and have a lot of contacts there, so I
get a number of things from them to stretch that
dollar: millings for road base and such. Another
thing we do is grease-ring tests to see how much
oil is really needed for chip-seal projects,
rather than just pulling a number based on past
performance. That can save a lot of oil.”
Rob Chesley, Highway Superintendent, Graham
County, Arizona

Recycling on a Grand Scale…
|
“One of the really exciting
developments will be to connect our two bike
path systems over the Roaring Fork River using
salvage from the old Maroon Creek bridge that
CDOT is replacing this summer. We are hoping to
get it done by the end of this season, and are
paying for it in part by CDOT grant that my
predecessor secured.”
John Wenzel, Public Works Director, Town of
Basalt

Versatility…
|
“We have water, recycling,
landfill, sewer, and caring for the equipment of
the Weed District. We use the PubWorks
Fleet module to figure out how [much] to bill
[the District and other County departments].”
JoAnn Callahan, Administrative Assistant,
Gunnison County Public Works
We’d like to sincerely thank Dave, Rob, John and
JoAnn for taking the time to share their
experiences with us.
