Water and Sewer Board approves minutes, warrant and fund transfer
Summary
At its July 7 meeting the Glens Falls City Water and Sewer Board approved meeting minutes, the warrant and a transfer of funds to cover sludge disposal costs. All motions carried by voice vote.
Glens Falls City Water and Sewer Board approved the minutes from its June 2 regular meeting and the June special meeting, approved the warrant and voted to transfer funds to cover sludge disposal costs.
The approvals were taken by voice vote with the board answering “Aye.” The board also approved a motion to transfer money from reconstruction and other accounts into the sludge-disposal account to avoid a shortfall later this year.
Why it matters: the board said recent charges on the switchgear and generator work pushed project costs higher than anticipated and that the reconstruction fund and related accounts are lower than earlier projections. Transferring money to sludge-disposal will cover near-term costs while the board reviews longer-term reconstruction balances and funding sources.
Details of the votes: - Approval of the water and sewer minutes from June 2, 2025: motion moved and seconded; voice vote, approved. - Approval of the water and sewer minutes from the June special meeting: motion moved and seconded; voice vote, approved. - Approval of the warrant: motion moved and seconded; voice vote, approved. - Motion to transfer funds into the sludge-disposal account (to cover sludge disposal and related shortfalls): motion moved and seconded; voice vote, approved.
The board did not record a roll-call vote in the transcript. No individual vote tallies or named movers/seconders were captured in the record.
