  • Thank you for your work on these two very successful funding requests. We literally got more money than we asked for on this award. When it comes to asking for money for a poor rural Village in a most sincere, professional, and technical way, I’ve never seen anyone more successful at it than you. For the rest of your days here on earth, when you drive through the Ville, you will know you had a tremendous impact on improving your stomping grounds. We can’t thank you enough for all your help over the past seven years, or so.

    Mr. Bruce Snell

    (Village Administrator - Fredericktown, 740-694-9010)

  • Thank you all for the work you have done and information you have provided to assist in getting this project ready for submission. I know time was short; however, I will be able to meet the grant submission deadline with a few hours to spare. I would not have been able to do so without your assistance.

    Captain Randy Carver

    (Mansfield Division of Police, )

  • Thanks for coordinating the work on the WLLI CCTV inspection. I spent some time onsite and thought the crew out there was great.

    Mr. Kevin Fitzgibbons

    (Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District, )

  • I have had the pleasure to serve as the Lorain County Engineer since 1989, and, over this time, I have not worked for a firm that care more about our projects than KEM. Their team of engineers, technicians, surveyors, and administrative staff takes communication to the next level, and I truly appreciate all the good work they've done for our county. That work has included everything from GIS mapping, stormwater management, water/wastewater and roadway design, to construction administration and inspection. The final product has consistently been high quality. Thank you, KEM team, you're a pleasure to work with!

    Mr. Ken Carney

    (Engineer - Lorain County, 440-329-5586)

  • Thank you so much for all that you have done for our project. I really appreciate how well you have worked with us. Just watching your correspondence with the EPA has given me so much respect for your professionalism and your efforts.

    Mr. Bob Vinsack

    (Mayor - Village of Hayesville, 419-651-7012)

  • This is our department’s first project of its kind, and I have been so grateful to have such a great team of experts around us to get us through! I certainly felt overwhelmed at times, and each of you took the time to be sure we were all on the same page. I appreciate everyone!

    Ms. Adrian Ackerman

    (Housing & Community Development - Mansfield, 419-755-9795)

  • I want to thank everyone for developing a set of plans that made this bid process as smooth as I have ever had on a project such as this. We didn’t have a single question from the bidders - pretty remarkable. Excellent work! Thank you!
