New maintenance man for Princeton
20 February 2008 — There’s a new face driving the town truck.

Adam Stuckey, 22, began working with the town earlier this month. Like the town administrator and the town board, he represents what might be termed a youth movement in the town.
He is filling the lead maintenance position with the town, which has been vacant for some time. While there is a lot to be done, he is taking a long-term approach to getting started.
“I’m doing maintenance on all town vehicles. I’m taking an inventory of all supplies.”
Maintenance on the vehicles has been lacking. He noted that inspections had expired on several town vehicles.
While he is still getting organized, he expects to make an impact on town operations. “We’re going to get the town clean. We want to give back more to the town.”
The town board is expecting Mr. Stuckey to take on some of the routine maintenance on the water and sewer system that has been jobbed out to Envirolink in recent years. The town changed their contract with the sewer plant operator last year to allow town workers to do the work, but until Mr. Stuckey was hired, the town has been limited in what work they could take on.
Mr. Stuckey comes to the town after working for the past eight years with R.D. Braswell Construction, building waste-water pump stations. He worked with the company part-time for seven years, and went full-time last year after getting his associate’s degree in business administration from Johnston Community College.
The Rains Crossroads Road resident is a North Johnston graduate.
So far, he has nothing but good to say about working with the town. “They (town staff) are more than good people. They have been very helpful and very lenient with me. I look forward to working with them.”
He also says his contacts with the citizens have been very good.
“I hope to see the town grow and succeed. I want to see us become more town friendly.”
