Town utilities staff reported that a newly run water main is now serving the Westville Correctional Facility and that a remote meter reader has been installed to monitor supply to the facility. Officials said planning is underway for phase 2 and phase 3 work that would add extra wells, expand the town’s filtration plant and extend additional main piping.

"The main has been run to the Westville Correctional facility, and they are using it. We just put the remote reader in for it," a utilities representative said during the council meeting. The representative added that planning is continuing for extra wells north of the current well field and for the filtration-plant expansion, and that the town has been working on related land acquisition.

Council members asked no substantive follow-up questions during the report. The utilities update was presented as an informational briefing; no formal action was taken. Town staff did not provide cost figures or specific timelines for phases 2 and 3 at the meeting.
