Committee recommends emergency repair for Seymour biosolids tank, refers matter to utility board
Summary
Committee reviewed a city attorney memorandum concluding the biosolids tank work can be declared an emergency repair and voted to recommend the emergency repair be approved by the utility board; cost and schedule were not specified in the transcript.
The Joint Committee of the Whole reviewed a memorandum from the city attorney stating that replacement or repair of the city’s biosolids tank can be declared an emergency repair and therefore proceed under emergency-repair procedures.
Committee members recalled that the DPW director had previously outlined the need for replacement or repair at the Feb. 9 meeting. Utility Foreman Kominowski answered questions from the committee about the work. Alderperson Hurkman moved to recommend the emergency repair work to the utility board; Alderperson Schaumberg seconded and the motion carried (vote tally not specified in the transcript).
The transcript does not state the dollar cost, the contractor, or an expected timeline for the repair; those details will be determined at the utility board stage.
