City council workshop — Water and wastewater staff updated the council on the ongoing multiyear replacement of aging well control equipment and said Well 8 will be brought into the new system.
"What this is is it is, we have, for the last 5 years, been replacing all of our old well control equipment in the well buildings," a water/wastewater staff member said. The work cited includes replacing cross-line starters, fuses, wiring and related control components; Wells 3, 4, 6 and 7 were already completed and the item on the agenda covers Well 8.
