Tonya Ross, left, of the state Department of Motor Vehicles helps Jeraldine Williams take care of business on the first floor of City Hall last Friday as City Treasurer Nichole R. Armstead looks on. Ms. Ross is a member of the traveling team that operates the agency’s DMV Connect mobile unit that brings services to people rather than requiring them to go to a DMV customer service center. The mobile unit is scheduled to return to City Hall at 9th and Broad streets in Downtown from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. the first Friday of each month. Other DMV Connect staff are, from left, Brandon Gunnell, Thomas Luck and Irvin Mitchell.
