There are many things I love about the highway and public works industry and the construction industry at large. Among those things, and perhaps the common, overriding theme that encapsulates everything is the good, old-fashioned work ethic found in our industry. First off, you can’t clear the roads of snow, repair a culvert, perform maintenance on equipment and landscape the community’s parks working from home in front of a computer and remotely logging onto a server. This industry had to deal with COVID-19 just like everybody else in every other industry but had to find ways to work around these challenges to physically be at work. I’m not knocking the work-at-home concept. It certainly can work for many industries, especially for jobs that require most of the time on a computer, phone, dealing with e-mails and so forth. There’s nothing inherently wrong with that as long as the work gets done at the same productivity level as physically being in the office. During the height of the pandemic, we heard a lot about the service sector, particularly the restaurant industry, and how they had to work in person, potentially exposing themselves to COVID. That was accurate, but I would have liked to have heard more about municipal services. Maybe I missed all those stories, but I don’t think I did. Respect is a big thing for me and there are essentially two ways to disrespect people: one, is to say something disrespectful to someone and the second way is to not acknowledge something that deserves respect. So, I just wanted to take a moment in this column to address the second point: thank you for always being there to do the vital work for your communities. Also, I want to thank all the businesses that have signed up and committed to exhibit their equipment and services at the N.Y.S. Highway and Public Works Expo. We are deeply grateful for your support. Booth sales so far have been incredible and even more are signing up every day. If you haven’t signed up to exhibit, yet, please contact Teddy McKeon Jr. for information about exhibiting at the Expo. You can reach him at tmckeonjr@cegltd.com and 800/523-2200. We are anticipating a highly successful Expo this October and if you are planning to attend, thank you; if you’re thinking about attending but haven’t made definitive plans, yet, please take a look at the spread on page 40 and 41. There, you’ll see all the exhibitors who have pledged to participate and where there’ll be located at the show. Hope to see you there. P

Highway Superintendent

Steve Hart

and the Town of Parishville Steve Hart is a man on the move. Whether struggling to keep the town’s budget in the black, providing the best services for the residents or running a part-time logging business, he’s always doing something. For the past five years, that something has been serving as the highway superintendent of the town of Parishville. “I’ve lived here my whole life,” he said. “I started working when I was seven years old at the

neighboring farms for $2 a day. I was feeding the cows, cleaning the barn and helping to cut the wood. I began selling it when I was 13.” Steve finally saved enough money cutting firewood. Before he graduated, he was able to pay his way through college. After college, Steve went into criminal justice. “I wanted to be a police officer but at that time, there weren’t any openings in the area. By the time I started getting job offers, my logging business was doing pretty well. I did that until I was 32.” Then the Jan. 9, 1998, ice storm hit. “All the roads were closed. I went to the highway superintendent and asked if he wanted help clearing the roads. He did, so I jumped right in. They left and I wanted to stay and keep clearing roads. Parttimers did that. continued on page 12

Jon Davis of the town of Parishville highway department operates the truck while a St. Lawrence County paver lays down asphalt. from page 9

“During that time, one of the regular highway employees retired. That’s when I started working for the town. I worked for the town for 20 years and then ran for the highway superintendent’s position in 2017. I started my four-year term in 2018. I was the deputy for four years prior. I knew everything about the job before I took over, so there weren’t any surprises.” What was the real story behind wanting to become highway superintendent? “When I was a kid, I spent a lot of my time hanging around town hall listening to politicians. Back then, I used to think someday it would be nice to run and be the highway superintendent. Not thinking that I would, but I did. “After working here for 20 years, I knew everything about the job. I 12

figured by running for highway superintendent, I’d make sure I got those things done. “So, I ran against the prior highway superintendent. He said he was going to retire. Before the elections, when it was coming time to file the petitions, he decided to run again. I’d already been telling people for two years that I was going to run. “It was close. No one thought I’d get any votes. I ended up beating him by about 64 votes. It’s a small town. There’s about 2,000 ‘important’ people. If 600 or 700 people vote it’s a lot.” In his “free” time, Steve still runs his logging business part-time. He also enjoys fishing, four wheeling and snowmobiling. Living in a rural area, the trails are “right outside my door,” he said. continued on page 16

All in a Day’s Work When it comes to facilities, Steve has a garage, eight truck bays and eight bays for the plow trucks. “It also has three work bays for maintenance, fixing and fabricating, a parts room, break room, my office and a welding room. It’s a fairly new garage that was built in 2010. The salt shed holds 400 tons of salt. We maintain the remaining section of State Route 72, which is 17 miles long. There’s also a new cold storage building with six overhead doors for storing equipment, tools and things we want to keep undercover but don’t need to be heated.” As superintendent, it’s his job to maintain the town’s 177.54 lane miles of road — 22 miles of which are gravel and 46 are paved. That

translates into five plowing routes that take about 3.5 to 4 hours to complete. Steve depends on his crew of seven full-time employees and one parttimer to serve the town’s 2,040 residents. His staff includes Jon Davis, Donald Phillips, Mike Swyers, John Wright, Justin Sochia, Jim Wolf, Brock Waite and John Waite, all of whom are machine equipment operators/mechanics. When it comes to his men, “I’d like to see my guys get some recognition. I’m the highway superintendent, but they’re the guys with the boots to the ground. They do a fantastic job. We work well as a team. If not for that comradery, we wouldn’t get nearly as many projects done in the short window we have.” continued on page 20

• 2014 Bobcat; and • 1993 Champion grader. The department is currently getting a new auto truck about every three years. “It used to be every two years, but with the cost of trucks now, we’re having to stretch it out a little more. As far as budgeting for new equipment, the town board supervisor put $75,000 a year into a separate account for buying equipment. Then, I do a five-year plan and try to use the money effectively. With that money, it takes three years in order to have enough to buy a new truck. Most of my money right now is going toward new trucks or keeping the fleet updated. A price tag for one truck is somewhere around $240,000. “When I first started working here, they were buying new trucks for around $120,000 and $130,000. All equipped to plow and ready to go. The price has gone up $100,000 in the time that I’ve been here.” continued on page 28

What’s Steve’s piece of dream equipment? “I’d like to get a new grader next year and an excavator three or four years after that.” Steve also shares services with other counties, so if he needs something they have, he can borrow it. “We work with six other towns back and forth. Most of the services are helping with paving, putting up their sand or if they need extra trucks. We’re more fortunate in that we have a bigger crew and enough trucks.” Projects On Horizon Steve has his eyes on several projects in the future. “The first one is White Hill Road. It’s rural and quite a ways away from town. It hasn’t seen a lot of paving maintenance because of a small

population out there. It still has to be filed. There’s about 14 miles up there. I’d like to start paving next year. It’s going to take several years to complete. The last year of my term, the one main road in town milled Potsdam Parish Road. I’d like to see it paved from end to end.” Lightning Round Now, five years into the job, what’s been Steve’s favorite/least favorite part of the job? “My favorite is knowing that you’re helping people and making it safe for them to travel. We’re actually doing a public service. My least favorite part? Always the winter.” Most frustrating? Wintertime. continued on page 34

“You barely get to touch on the roads and they’re starting to pair up and then it starts snowing again. You have to make the call of whether to keep the trucks out or send them home. You have to time all that in between the school buses.” Most challenging? “Being able to do all my own work on the computer. I can do it now.” Most difficult? “Trying to get everything done that needs to be done. It’s hard to get

five miles of road ready to pave every year along with doing the other work. You’re scrambling to get things done so you have your roads paved for the next year.” Most disappointing? “There really hasn’t been any big disappointment.

The town of Parishville highway department’s salt shed holds 400 tons of salt. from page 34

Most important part? “Making sure the roads are kept plowed so the school buses and the people can travel safely.” Most memorable job experience? “Five months into my first term we had a big rainstorm and one of our roads washed out. It took 167 loads of gravel and five culvert pipes to fix it. Two other towns — Hopkinton and Lawrence — came to help and it was fixed in two weeks.” 42

Most rewarding? “When a taxpayer tells you how good a job you’re doing.” Finally, your proudest moment? “When your men work all day and everything works like clockwork and you don’t have to micromanage. It feels good to know that they can all go out and do their jobs by themselves.” In the end, I asked Steve if the job was everything he’d hoped for. “It’s exactly what I thought it would be.” continued on page 46

About the Town of Parishville Parishville was once inhabited by the Mohawk Indian Tribe. New York State made a treaty with the Mohawk Indians on March 29, 1791, in which they surrendered title to their lands. As soon as possible, these lands were to be put up for sale according to an act of the legislature. The principle purchaser was Alexander Macomb. After selling several of the 10 towns, Macomb dropped out of sight,

but he turned over or sold the property still in his possession to William Constable who sold it to de Chaumont on July 24, 1804. He in turn sold it to David Parish on Dec. 2, 1810, and the town was named after Parish. Before a single settler had begun to build a house, careful plans for the town and industries had been made. A Mr. Crary had surveyed the region in 1809, which met with Parish’s approval. continued on page 48

There is a possibility that the Russell Turnpike had already been cut and that Hoard’s Road or path was connected with it. In 1810, Mr. Hoard, with workers recruited from Vermont, enlarged this path into a road wide enough to permit horses and wagons for hauling building materials. In the meantime, the town of Parishville had been surveyed and cut into lots. The first settler was Luke Brown. He and several others came from Springfield, Vt., to work on the above-mentioned road. Parish let him choose land for a farm. In March 1811, he brought his family to the farm (which is now owned by Gary and Jane Snell) located now on Route 72. They immediately tapped the nearest maple trees to begin sugaring since white sugar was very expensive. continued on page 66

ClearSpan Offers Pre-Engineered Durable Steel Building Solution

ClearSpan’s pre-engineered steel buildings are manufactured with ultimate durability and include blueprints that certify their strength against various snow and wind loads.

In any industry, circumstances can arise that require businesses to find a quick building solution. This can be a stressful situation, as operations often have to scramble and rapidly gauge their options to find the right structure. For an immediate answer, businesses frequently turn to pre-engineered structures over conventional buildings. While this can be a quick and convenient option, operations will also want to ensure they’re getting a high-quality building that can stand the test of time. That’s where ClearSpan comes in. ClearSpan’s pre-engineered steel buildings provide operations with a structure that’s not simply just a quick fix, but that also can be a reliable long-term solution, the company said. When businesses work with ClearSpan, they benefit from quick construction timelines and industry-leading warranties. Their building will provide a number of unique benefits, ensuring they get an immediate solution that’s easy to maintain and continues to meet the operation’s needs, well into the future, ClearSpan said. What Are Pre-Engineered Buildings? If a building has been pre-engineered, it means the structure has already gone through the design and engineering process. The building components are manufactured to create specific dimensions and provide optimal strength. Operations can then choose between different building sizes, according to their requirements. When businesses need a building immediately, these structures offer a convenient and reliable solution. ClearSpan’s pre-engineered steel buildings are manufactured with ultimate durability and include blueprints that certify their strength against various snow and wind loads. This allows them to withstand the harshest environments and meet just about any building codes, so every business is guaranteed a durable and long-lasting structure. Pre-engineered steel buildings utilize modular construction, so that they can be more adaptable. Although these structures are available in pre-determined sizes, modular construction allows them to be easily expanded upon in the future, if a business desires. 50

The ultimate goal of pre-engineered steel buildings is to provide a structural solution to nearly any industry. They are extremely adaptable and durable, and their design gives them the versatility to serve any operation’s purpose. From the military, to athletics, to the most demanding storage applications, ClearSpan’s pre-engineered steel buildings offer a superior, cost-effective solution. Why Should I Choose Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings? Pre-engineered steel buildings combine durability with convenience and are constructed from high-quality building material that allows them to satisfy most building codes. They have already been engineered, so the design process is essentially eliminated in these structures and the entire purchasing process is streamlined. Pre-engineered steel buildings can be shipped quickly and assembled in very little time, leading to more cost-effective construction. When operations obtain a pre-engineered structure, they have a choice between several foundation options. Helical anchors are one of the most notable because they make engineered steel buildings more convenient and adaptable. This foundation allows pre-engineered steel buildings to be considered 100 percent temporary, while still providing the strength and reliability of a traditional foundation. Helical anchors are drilled directly into the ground and require minimal excavation, which limits their impact on the surrounding environment, and allows for simpler installation or removal. How Operations Can Benefit From ClearSpan Pre-Engineered Structure By working with ClearSpan, businesses will get an immediate solution that can accommodate their needs, no matter what the building’s intended purpose may be. ClearSpan provides a number of metalcladded pre engineered building options. These are built with ultra sturdy I-beam frames, and they can be built to any size. ClearSpan also offers a continued on page 54

ClearSpan Provides Several Metal-Cladded Building Options from page 50

number of pre engineered structures that can be cladded with fabric. The fabric buildings feature a truss frame design that creates wideopen interiors with no support posts. This ensures operations get abundant space, without any obstructions to hinder potential work or production. The frame also creates naturally high clearances, allowing even the tallest vehicles or machinery to maneuver in and out of the pre-engineered steel buildings comfortably. The cladding is naturally translucent, so it allows sunlight to filter through and flood the structure’s interior. This produces lighting that’s easy on the eyes, and operations can save on utility costs because they don’t have to run artificial lighting throughout the day. The cover also is climate-sensitive, which allows the interior to be 10 degrees cooler in the summer and 10 degrees warmer in the winter. This helps pre-engineered steel buildings stay comfortable, even during

extreme summer temperatures, or cold winter days. While pre-engineered steel buildings come “as is”, ClearSpan offers a one-stop-shop for all the accessories a business may need to acquire. Whether it’s doors, lighting, HVAC equipment or any other steel building systems, they can be seamlessly integrated into pre-engineered steel buildings. If businesses want a structure that can be customized to meet all of their exact needs, ClearSpan’s extensive line of buildings can provide the answer they’re looking for. With ClearSpan, finding the right type of building doesn’t have to be a hassle for businesses. ClearSpan’s pre-engineered steel buildings are designed to meet a variety of applications across a number of industries, ensuring any operation can get their ideal structure, even when they face time constraints.

Milton CAT Opens New Facility in Tonawanda; 13th Total Location

Photo courtesy of Milton CAT

The Wheeler Street site is the former home of the Spaulding Fibre Company, which was a pillar of the Tonawanda community for more than 80 years.

Milton CAT, the Northeast’s Caterpillar (CAT) equipment dealer, has opened its 13th location, a 40,000-sq.-ft. purpose-built, Tonawanda, N.Y., facility. Every feature of the facility is in place to improve safety and efficiency so Milton CAT can support western New York equipment owners with machine sales, machine service, Cat parts, Cat work tools, hydraulic hose repair, and Trimble technology from SITECH Northeast, the manufacturer said. The location also offers generator rentals, Cat merchandise and has a two-acre machine operation and demonstration area. The Wheeler Street site is the former home of the Spaulding Fibre Company, which was a pillar of the Tonawanda community for more than 80 years.

“We are extremely excited to serve and support the Buffalo area with equipment, machine control technology and timely service from our new state-of-the-art and strategically located facility. We are proud to call this historic site our new home and we look forward to carrying on Spaulding’s legacy as an involved member of Tonawanda’s business community,” said Machine Sales Manager Jason Pierce. The facility’s 10,000-sq.-ft safety-oriented earthmoving machine service shop features heated floors to keep technicians comfortable and to dry equipment, three in-floor scissor lifts with 12,000 lb. capacity each for compact machines, four cranes from Simmers Crane Design & Services of Tonawanda, five oil reels that dispense triple-filtered oil, and all the tools and equipment required for a wide range of service tasks.

Any piece of equipment that goes into the shop first visits the wash bay to avoid contamination. It is washed with a 4,000-psi heated pressure washer. All wastewater is properly contained and decontaminated per EPA regulations. The filtered water is then re-used to wash future machines. 56

The demo area gives operators with all levels of experience the opportunity to test drive the latest in Caterpillar earth moving equipment.

The 10,000-sq.-ft. shop is specifically designed for technician’s safety and comfort. The 10-in.-thick concrete floor is heated, keeping technicians comfortable during brutal Buffalo winters. The shop has three in-floor scissor-lifts and four overhead cranes.

Milton CAT’s new 40,000-sq.-ft. facility serving the Buffalo, N.Y., market, is located at 400 Wheeler Street, Tonawanda, N.Y.

from page 56

The parts department features a fully stocked hydraulic hose repair center with most repairs being done in under 30 minutes and an automated vertical lift parts stocking system (VLM) that stores 22,000 different line items on revolving tracks that automatically come down when a part is sourced by the system. Ninety-six percent of parts orders can be fulfilled from Tonawanda’s inventory. If a part is not in stock, it will come on the nightly shuttle from Milton CAT headquarters in Milford, Mass., or CAT’s parts depot in York, Pa., and be available as soon as the next business day. Customers also can pick their parts up at one of several conveniently located drop boxes throughout western New York. The drop boxes are accessible 24

hours a day. Tonawanda is the first Milton CAT location with a SITECH Northeast presence. SITECH Northeast is an authorized, independent provider of Trimble site positioning, machine control technology, training, support and service. The facility’s demo area will be used for CAT machine and Trimble technology sales and training demonstrations. To celebrate the opening of the Tonawanda facility, Milton CAT hosted an open house that included tours, machine and technology demonstrations, capability information stations, red tag specials, Global Operator Challenge and refreshments.  P (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2022 Superintendent’s Profile except where noted .

The Milton CAT hose shop typically turns new hydraulic hoses in about 30 minutes. 60

Caterpillar machines for every application from landscaper to bridge builder and the experts to back up your purchase are available at Milton CAT’s new Buffalo, N.Y., facility.

Milton CAT’s New Tonawanda Facility Boasts 40,000 Sq. Ft. from page 60

The star of the new parts department are these new VLMs or vertical lift machines, which store parts on revolving tracks that automatically come down when a part is needed. Each of the five VLMs can store up to 22,000 different line items.

The bulk oil room supplies oil to all the service stations within the shop. All oil is triple filtered going into the tanks and once again when it leaves the tank. There are four tanks, each with a capacity of 7,000 gal.

Buffalo is the first Milton CAT location with a SITECH Northeast presence on site. SITECH Northeast is Milton CAT’s dealer of Trimble machine automation technology. The centerpiece of the showroom is a 1949 D2 tractor, which was owned by a farmer in Batavia, N.Y., who actually operated this tractor until he was 90 years old.

Customer parts pickup area where customers can self-serve picking up parts, using a kiosk for easy and fast in and out service. 64

Whether you are looking to restock on lubricants or grab some new Caterpillar apparel, the Milton CAT showroom has you covered.

The following March 30, 1812, the first white child was born and christened Luke Parish Brown. Parish gave the child 50 acres of land for his name. The township of Parishville was formed March 18, 1814. Parishville once had 14 mills located by the Gorge in the hamlet of Parishville and several others outside but still in the township. The Industrial Era lasted only about 35 years. The residents are proud of their Parishville Hopkinton Central School and the town hall, which is in good condition and houses the town offices. There also is a newly constructed Parishville highway department building on Rutman Road and the Kunoco Food Mart with gas pumps is located in the hamlet of Parishville. There are two fine restaurants, The Silver Café and The Timber Tavern. There are sand and gravel businesses and logging is still going on in the South Woods, town of Parishville.
