In the Spotlight Now!

Mercedes Rendall, who has worked for the City of Belding since the Fall of 2021, has recently been promoted to Operator-In-Charge in the city’s water division. In order to be in charge of a municipal water department, an employee must complete extensive training and pass a certification exam. After a number of years of studying and training, Mercedes recently passed the state required testing and is now a Certified Water Treatment Specialist. She now oversees the processing of the potable water that is delivered to residents and businesses in the city. Ms. Rendall is also currently studying for her water distribution certification which means that she will soon also oversee the water distribution system which includes water mains, service lines, hydrants, valves and the city’s water storage towers. Mercedes is a very dedicated and hard-working employee and the city and its residents are very fortunate to have her providing for their daily water needs. Congratulations Mercedes!!

Todd Frisbie, who has worked for the City of Belding for 26 years, was recently promoted to the position of Public Works Director. During his tenure with the city, Todd has worked in every area of the public works department including maintaining the city’s fleet of vehicles and construction equipment. Because of his extensive background with the city, Todd was a natural choice to now oversee the department. Since taking charge of public works services, Todd has reorganized the department and greatly improved productivity, accountability and the quality of work produced. Director Frisbie is currently surveying the city’s streets, parks, grounds, buildings, and utilities and is developing work plans to enhance the overall look of the city and to improve the safety of all city amenities. Todd frequently works long hours including nights and weekends, as it is his personal desire to see the public works department and the city be the best that they can be. Todd also has the ability to work with people in a respectful manner and this has resulted in a reduction in vandalism in the city’s parks as he works with local youth to better understand their needs. Thanks for all of your efforts Todd!!
