Council reviews alley/asphalt work, water-meter relocations and school meter installation
Summary
Officials reported that asphalt and gravel deliveries are complete, alley measurements revealed a misaligned meter, and staff discussed in-house relocation options; a motion to relocate the meter was made on the record.
Town staff reported that asphalt and the last gravel deliveries for alley repairs have arrived and crews are working to complete alley and drainage work. "Asphalt's been delivered. The last of the gravel has been delivered," Unidentified Speaker 1 reported.
Unidentified Speaker 2 said the board inspected alley widths and found alleys measure 20 feet; the water meter at one property appears to be located outside the alley boundary. "Our alleys are 20 foot," Unidentified Speaker 2 stated, and described measuring meters that appear misaligned with the town's pins. The group discussed options to relocate the meter and whether the work could be done in-house to save costs.
Unidentified Speaker 2 moved to relocate the meter to a standard location and to perform related cleanup; the motion language appears on the record, but the transcript does not include a recorded vote. Nearby, staff reported a two-inch water line and meter were installed at the local school and crews plan to dig up and plug the old meter in the next week.
Other public-works items recorded: ongoing lagoon work to add planks and a screen to reduce debris, repair or replacement of sprinkler heads, and budget items pending finalization in the monthly finance reports. The transcript records discussion and motions but does not include final vote tallies for decisions to relocate meters or to authorize specific in-house work.
