Inspections find lead on several city‑side service lines; village to prepare replacement plan
Summary
Contractor inspections of 105 service lines found lead on six of 49 inspected the previous day; the Village Administrator said the Village will be responsible for replacing the village‑side portions and must develop a replacement plan.
The Village Administrator told council that a contractor identified as 'Arcadias' in the minutes is inspecting water service lines across 105 properties. According to the minutes, six of the 49 lines inspected the previous day were found to have lead on the village (city) side of the connection.
The Village Administrator told council the Village will need to develop a replacement plan: the Village will be responsible for replacing or repairing the village‑side portion of any lead service lines, while residents will cover costs associated with their private side of the service line.
The minutes do not list the addresses affected, a timeline for replacement work, an estimated total cost, or whether state or federal funding will be sought to offset local costs. Council discussion recorded in the minutes did not resolve those details; staff were tasked with preparing a replacement plan.
The minutes refer to 'Arcadias' as the contractor conducting inspections; the transcript spelling is used here as recorded in the meeting minutes.
