The Dupont Town Board on July 9 recorded a change in the town’s sewage rate to $25.00, effective July 1, 2024, and reviewed current account balances for both town and sewage funds.

Under Old Business the board agreed to follow up on work needed for the Trailer Park sewage main but did not set a completion date in the minutes.
