Denton historical society seeks $7,000 for museum water hookup; board takes no action
Summary
Charlene Hobelman of the Denton Community Historical Society asked the Village of Denton Board of Trustees for a $7,000 contribution to connect a museum building to the water main; trustees requested more plumbing options and took no funding action at the Nov. 4 meeting.
Charlene Hobelman, representing the Denton Community Historical Society, asked the Board of Trustees of the Village of Denton on Nov. 4 to consider a $7,000 contribution to pay for a water main hookup for the society’s museum on Lancaster Avenue. The board heard that maintenance staff and a plumber are exploring additional installation options.
The request was introduced during the meeting’s business agenda. The clerk and maintenance staff reported that Blackledge has been working with a plumber to identify alternatives to the proposed work. No vote or formal pledge of funds was taken at the meeting.
Board members did not adopt a motion to fund the hookup but directed staff to continue exploring options and to keep the item available for a future agenda. The historical society’s representative did not provide a timeline for the project during the meeting.
The board is scheduled to meet again in December, where follow-up items such as the town’s trail update will also be considered.
