Davis Clark the Director of our Public Works Department sent me this email a few weeks ago and I decided to run with it. I have changed the locations and the descriptions of the event so as to not embarrass anyone. Also the picture is not of the incident."Just a quick note about an accident that took place this morning. Someone noticed a streetlight had been hit on Main Street this morning and informed Public Works. I sent a couple guys out there to assess the damage and remove the broken pole. Apparently the driver hit two street signs and the street light and fled the scene leaving parts of his car scattered around.
The two public works employees Greg Poulsen and Ross Hosking decided to drive the area to see if there was a damaged vehicle nearby. Less than a block away was a vehicle with a flat tire and front end damage parked in a driveway. The Police Department were notified and the person admitted that they were at fault. That little extra effort by those two employees just saved the Village’s Insurance Co. almost $4,000.00. I thought you might like to know that."
Nice job!
