ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Siegel
Just to clarify for the public record the reason that this expenditure is being put forth is because in looking at
additional work that was done in the piping surrounding boilers were like Swiss cheese and they need to be
replaced. It helps to be the liaison to the Board of Public Works on this committee.
Alderman Caron
Is this the last of the boilers that have to be repaired or is this still the continuation? | know that we have had a
lot of structural problems there so | am just wondering.
Alderman Siegel
| believe that this is the last of the issues. There is heat on in the facilities so we don’t have the same issues
that we had last year. It is my understanding that this should be it for that. There may be other things that
come up that we see in DPW but | believe this is all for that.
MOTION CARRIED
