Westville Council discusses water main to Westwood Correctional Facility, well and filtration expansion
Summary
The Westville Town Council heard an update that a water main now serves Westwood Correctional Facility and that staff are planning additional wells and filtration expansion; no formal action was taken.
The Westville Town Council discussed progress on the town’s water system, including a recently run main now serving the Westwood Correctional Facility and ongoing planning for additional wells and a larger filtration plant.
Council member (unnamed) said, "The main, has been run to Westwood corrections, correctional facility, and they are using it. We just put the remote reader in for it." The council member added that phase 2 and phase 3 plans include extra wells, expanding the filtration plant and running additional main lines, and that staff are continuing land-acquisition work tied to the well projects.
The update described operational details — the remote reader installation and the use of the main to supply boiler water at the correctional facility — and noted planning work rather than a final engineering or funding decision. Council members asked no further questions during the report and no vote or directive was recorded on the item.
Background: the council has previously discussed water-source work and land needs for wells. The current remarks focused on implementation steps (remote meter/reader installation and planning for additional wells and filtration capacity) and ongoing land-acquisition activity.
