Clermont Thanks Miller Pipeline for Main Street Beautification Efforts
Published September 2018
The Town of Clermont would like to recognize Miller Pipeline (8850 Crawfordsville Road) for their work the week of September 10 to help clean up Crawfordsville Road. Employees of the local pipeline company are painting the faded curbs along the roadway, and they have also gone above and beyond to arrange for--and pay for--a street sweeper to clean the road later in the week. The company has also been instrumental in communications with Citizens Energy about fixing up the stretch of Crawfordsville Road recently torn up for gas line repairs. Main Street Coordinator Nancy Baxter in particular thanks Miller Pipeline for their outstanding service for our community.
Residents are encouraged to let the company know they appreciate Miller Pipeline's help by sending a note of thanks to the company on social media, by mail, or e-mail (angela.briel@millerpipeline.com).
