the same time, they also want to lead the way when it comes to preserving the natural environment, which they recognize is a key component of what makes their community so appealing. “The township is always striving to lead, grow, and connect in all areas,” says Valerie Iancovich, communications specialist, “but we’re always going to prioritize the environment in everything we do.” “The environment is the foundation of our strategic plan,” she says. “We would have no demand for trails if we didn’t have a beautiful environment. We would have no demand for bridges if people didn’t love traveling through our forests and over our lakes and such. So the vision will always be and always has to prioritize the environment.” “We’re going to make sure our roads are high quality, we’re going to pursue innovative solutions, but we’re never going to compromise what makes this place so special,” Valerie concludes. “We have a climate action plan as a corporation and a climate action plan for our community, and those will inform how we move into the future.” SEPTEMBER 2025 Hawkins Ltd. is a marine construction company specializing in steel structure construction and installation such as docks, bridges, boathouse platforms and shoreline walkways.
