Richmond Rescue won the prestigious Ambulance Service of the Year award from the State of Vermont Department of Health today. They have recently improved their organizational management resulting in a major turn-around with response time over past years and their in-service days are now approaching 1,000. Volunteer numbers and participation has increased significantly since 2012 and they have been successful in getting effective and stable financial agreements with towns in their service area. They have begun a Media Outreach program to raise public awareness of the role of EMS in the community and are on the cutting edge by being first in-State with adoption and implementation of new protocols. The Richmond area offers a wide variety of response environments from mountain trails to interstate, creating an interesting, challenging and attractive climate for younger members. Please join me in congratulating the squad for their accomplishments!
The Town of Richmond is happy to announce the launch of a new Municipal Website. The site boasts an intuitive navigation, mobile friendly design, and detailed government information. In addition to these features, information regarding departments, a meeting minutes section, and an area for the most requested items have been included to make it easy for site visitors to find information and contacts quickly. The website was made possible by the assistance of The Snelling Center for Government through the Vermont Digital Economy Project, an Economic Development Grant awarded to the Vermont Council on Rural Development
