Sherwood council reviews water/sewer operations; Mark Center Solar Project paid for bulk water
Summary
Councilors noted 19 shut-off notices, hydrant flushing with needed repairs, and that the Mark Center Solar Project paid $2,500 for 25 truckloads (4,000 gallons each) of bulk water; the village plans to apply for triannual lead and copper testing.
Council staff reported several water and sewer operational items at the Oct. 15 meeting, including shut-offs, hydrant maintenance, and sampling plans for lead and copper.
Billing staff delivered 19 shut-off notices; one account was shut off and later reconnected. The minutes say the Mark Center Solar Project paid the village $2,500 for 25 truckloads of bulk water, with each truckload listed as 4,000 gallons.
Public works reported hydrants were flushed and that some hydrants have issues that will need repair. The village is planning to apply to qualify for triannual (every three years) lead and copper monitoring — systems must meet sampling requirements in order to be reduced from annual to triannual monitoring, and then the village would need to reapply after each sampling year.
Two meter pits that had been removed during US 127 construction were reinstalled, the minutes state.
The minutes do not record timelines for hydrant repairs or the application date for triannual testing.
