Building & Grounds

Major Responsibilities

Public Buildings

Charged with the responsibility of keeping lights burning, HVAC systems operating, interiors painted, plumbing working & buildings cleaned.

Through a combination of in-house personnel & contract services, we strive to ensure proper maintenance of all town buildings for a safe & pleasant environment for both town employees to conduct business & visitors alike.

Grounds

Includes all aspects of landscaping (mowing, trimming, planting, herbicide application, fertilizing and irrigation, etc.) as needed for all town properties, which includes Town Hall, parks, ball fields, and cemeteries. It is our intention to keep all areas of Farmville aesthetically pleasing to both citizens and visitors alike.

Cemeteries

For purchase of grave sites see: Public Works 

The Town of Farmville owns and maintains three cemeteries that are open year round.

• Hollywood: off North Pitt Street
• Forest Hill: off North Contentnea Street
• Sunset: off 264 Alternate

All cemeteries are cared for in a manner that respects a family’s desire for dignity for the final resting place of their loved ones. To help ensure this we ask that all Christmas decorations be removed by the last Friday in January for maintenance purposes.
