   The new Cambridge City Subdistrict main structure represents 9600 square feet of purposeful, intelligent design. It is a 15 acre campus and houses human resources, special equipment and various materials necessary to maintain the highways. It is located just north of U.S. 40 on St. Rd. 1.

The salt barn allows for recycling of liquids and brine making.

    Jerome Swim, Operations Manager
for the Cambridge City Subdistrict, Greenfield District, guided us on a tour of the facility at the December 1st open house. It is an amazing change from the former garage he worked from which was a WPA project built in the 1930s. The building will make operations much more efficient.

2010 Census Recruiting for Thousands of Short-Term Jobs

   CHICAGO - The U.S. Census Bureau’s Chicago Regional Census Center recently announced some very positive employment news: about 45,000 people are now being recruited across the State of Indiana to work as census takers for the 2010 Census between December 2009 and June 2010.
    Tests for these positions—which pay between $12.25 and $15 per hour— are taking place through January at locations throughout the state.
   "These jobs allow people to work in—and for— their neighborhoods," said Stanley D. Moore, Chicago Regional Director. "Even though most are part-time, temporary jobs lasting two to six weeks, working on this once-a-decade headcount allows census takers to be a part of history," he added.
