Council extends filtration authority timelines, approves supplemental amendment
Summary
Lock Haven City Council approved a supplemental amendment to the Central Clinton County Water Filtration Authority agreement and adopted a resolution extending the authority’s term to align with projected debt service.
Council voted to approve the fifth supplemental amendment to the Central Clinton County Water Filtration Authority agreement (originally adopted in 1993) and adopted a resolution to extend the authority’s longevity to 2075 to match projected debt service obligations.
City staff said the supplemental amendment updates the agreement’s dates to reflect debt service that will be incurred in connection with a closing expected around Sept. 18, 2025. The amendment was described as clarifying language that council previously approved; Frank Quincelli, solicitor for the authority, corrected draft language before it was forwarded to the authority.
Later in the meeting, council approved Resolution No. 2025‑26 to extend the filtration authority’s term another 50 years to July 1, 2075. Council discussion framed the extension as aligning the authority’s life with the period required to pay the relevant loan.
Both the supplemental amendment and the resolution passed on voice votes recorded in the meeting. Council members expressed that the changes were procedural and intended to accommodate upcoming financing and the authority’s debt service schedule.
No additional substantive policy changes to the filtration authority’s operations were described in the meeting packet or the council discussion; council indicated the amendment and term extension are steps tied to closing and financing schedules.
