ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Jette
| tried to look at the minutes of the committee meeting to learn more about this but they haven’t yet been
made available. Can the Mayor just explain what this is for?
Mayor Donchess
This is to repair and of course this was through the Board of Public Works, this is to repair a major piece
of equipment at the sewage treatment plant. The sewage treatment plant several years, 3, 4, 5 years
ago was in a major state of disrepair. The problems had not yet been revealed by the then
superintendent and Mayor Lozo with Alderman Deane and Segale, particularly the latter two, with Lisa
Fateaux, outlined a whole plan of improvements. As we have moved forward over the last 5 years the
facility has been upgraded very significantly and this is one of the last things that needs to be done.
