The village board approved the consent agenda, which included pay application No. 23 for the wastewater treatment plant improvements project in the amount of $3,018,880.42. The consent agenda was moved and carried by roll call.
During reports later in the meeting, project representatives and staff provided an update on the wastewater treatment plant improvements. Seth reported the sludge press — a major piece of equipment for the plant — was targeting delivery on Wednesday and that many pieces of equipment in the Sludge Press Building are scheduled for startup in November.
