Committee received a staff update on the town wastewater project: about 35 of 374 properties are connected (~9%), roughly 90 applications submitted.

A staff representative updated the committee on the wastewater management program’s phasing and connections, stating that 35 of 374 properties are connected (about 9%) and roughly 90 connection applications have been submitted. The speaker said Phase 3 contractor Robert B. Auer was issued a notice to proceed and that residents in Phase 3 should expect notification and stub-location plans in the coming weeks.

Committee members pressed for clarity on the mapping for upgradient properties—particularly around Uncle Harvey’s Pond—and asked staff to report back on whether those homes are in earlier or later phases. The staff representative said design for later phases is underway, public information meetings are planned by the end of the summer, and construction is likely to begin in September or October with work continuing through 2028.
