December 17, 2007

 

SHELBYVILLE, KY.  Shelby County Judge-Executive Rob Rothenburger announced that nine employees from the Shelby County Road Department have received accreditation from the University of Kentucky’s Transportation Center for their completion of the Roads Scholar / Road Masters program.  Rothenburger stated, “The courses provide local and state government employees with the information and knowledge on how to effectively maintain local streets and roads through normal and inclement weather conditions.”

 

Road Department employees Lawrence Blackaby and John Melton completed the Road Masters Program.  Dave Allen, Leon Brunner, David Clemmons, Kerry Harp, Keith Long, Eddie Hughes, and Lynn Whisman all completed the Roads Scholars program.  The road crew members were recognized for their accomplishment during a luncheon held in their honor at Receptions Inc., in Erlanger on December 13, 2007.

 

Carl Henry, Shelby County Road Supervisor, stated that, “It’s great that the guys are willing to attend these classes to further their education.  It makes me feel good to see them graduate, knowing that it was them that wanted to better themselves.  I appreciate the knowledge that they are gaining, it not only helps them with their jobs, but it helps our entire program and the county.”
