Getting Involved


Last week Chris got a phone call from a Richmond City Council Member asking him to volunteer for the city Planning and Zoning Commission. His dad has served on the commission for a number of years and recommended Chris for the position because of his experience and knowledge! After talking with his dad and this council member Chris has decided to take on the task. They meet once a month at the city offices to review any and all construction matters within the city limits. He is kind of excited to be that involved with the community and to be able to always know what is going on around here as far as growth and expansion go. He has a two day seminar that he is supposed to go to in April and is trying to get Cartwrights to allow him to take the seminar for work (it'd cost two days of work or two vacation days). Cartwrights is trying to get more involved in civil engineering and subdivisions and that kind of thing, so he just about has his bossed convinced that this seminar can help their company. The city will pay for it, he just doesn't want to have to take vacation days for it. Anyway! We know he'll do great!
