Lewiston council notes water inspection, garbage contract increase and IT migration to Caselle Online
Summary
Council members reported a successful state water inspection, a 4% increase in garbage contract costs, plans to open the Master Fee Schedule, and a move to Caselle Online for city financial and payment processing systems.
At the June 16 meeting, Lewiston officials reported routine operational updates including a State inspection of the water system, changes to contracted garbage costs, and a planned migration of city financial systems to Caselle Online.
Councilmember Trexler told the council that a recent State inspection of the city water system went well. Mayor F. Bodily reported that garbage expenses will increase by about 4% under the current contract; the minutes do not include contract details or dollar amounts. The city intends to open the Master Fee Schedule next month to consider any necessary fee adjustments tied to contract-driven cost changes.
Mayor F. Bodily also said the city will move to Caselle Online to avoid buying a new server, allow unlimited departmental logins for budget tracking, and transition payment processing away from the prior partner (Caselle and Xpress Bill Pay are no longer partners). The office expects to gain online forms and expanded payment capabilities after the switch.
No formal action on these operational items was recorded during the meeting; the updates were provided as informational reports and routine Councilmember reports.
