RUTLAND -- Crews have begun repaving work on several town streets, the town announced this week, while Town Hall and the Town Annex have also shifted to new hours of operation.
TOWN HALL
The town posted a News Flash notice this week saying paving crews have begun repaving work on a list of streets; the town's website did not specify which roads are affected, and residents are directed to the town's site for the full list and schedule. Separately, Town Hall and the Town Annex have moved to new hours of operation, according to a notice posted to the town's website; the town did not detail the new hours in the alert itself, and residents with business at Town Hall should check the posted notice or call 508-886-4100 before visiting.
