To the Editor:

The last week has brought incredible challenges to our Village. Our Village staff and volunteers have worked long and hard hours to help residents and should be appreciated for all they have done.

I’d like to publicly recognize the excellent work that our Village’s Department of Public Works and our police and first-responders, especially our Volunteer Fire Department and EMS. The Village’s professional staff also deserves our thanks for their timely and informative updates regarding the status of recovery efforts.

We are fortunate to have such a team dedicated keeping our Village clean and safe, especially during and after the recent winter storms. Many thanks to all who assisted in a professional, conscientious way.

Sincerely,

Brian Pugh
