PAINTED HYDRANT

December 3, 2008 by Barb Travis, Kyle Road Neighborhood Association 0 min read

Some people paint the town and others paint fire hydrants. And that is exactly what Vivian and Robert Rietdorf of 5325 Kyle Road have done in the Kyle Road Neighborhood Association.

Mr. Rietdorf, a Kyle Road Street Representative and his lovely wife, in this very hot weather, volunteered their time and energy to clear each hydrant area of weeds and gave 40 hydrants a coat of shiney yellow paint.

Thanks to both of you for your efforts to secure permission to paint, secure paint provided by the City, and your continued dedication to our neighborhood residents.
