I’m very pleased to announce that facilities now has a new staff member. Bill Picketts, who most of you already know as OPP’s daylight maintenance and utility worker, is now working half time in facilities to help with our building and furniture maintenance needs and event set ups.

While still covering most of his regular OPP duties, Bill will be helping to monitor and can directly respond to most items on the Help Desk, and will be available via email (wlp11) and phone (863-4266) as well. And as always you can speak with him directly if you see him out and about. This 1/2 time position is currently in a test phase, but I’m hopeful it will work into a permanent position for our department. — Len White
