Council approves Gordon Street hookup and $140,000 vac trailer purchase for utilities
Summary
Council authorized city-paid inspection and hookup at the URA-owned Gordon Street school for 4E’s use (5–1) and approved buying a $140,000 vacuum trailer for the water/sewer department with GEMA covering half the cost.
The Washington City Council approved two infrastructure items on Nov. 12: inspection and a water/sewer hookup for the Gordon Street school building and purchase of a vacuum trailer for the water and sewer department.
Councilman Larry Hill moved, and Councilman Nathaniel Cullars seconded, a motion for the city to cover the inspection and the cost of a water and sewer hookup at the URA-owned Gordon Street school so that 4E can use the space. The motion passed on roll call: Fisher — Yes; Hill — Yes; Gunter — Yes; Cullars — Yes; Mahoney — No; Anderson — Yes (5–1).
Separately, the council approved purchase of a vac trailer for the water and sewer department at a total cost of $140,000. The transcript records that GEMA funds will pay half the cost and the city will provide the match; Councilman Newton Gunter made the motion and Councilman David Fisher Jr. seconded. The motion passed by recorded vote (vote recorded as unanimous in the minutes provided).
Councilmember David Fisher noted the city’s water meets state safe-drinking standards during the meeting’s department reports. The record does not include procurement contract numbers or delivery timelines for the vac trailer, nor does it specify the exact funding account that will provide the city’s match.
