Board debates porta‑potty needs and who will pay the rental bill
Summary
Organizers reported one city-supplied unit and a local rental quote of about $240 for an additional portable toilet; members asked the city about reimbursement and explored donations from a local vendor (Bucks) to cover delivery and pickup costs.
Committee member B reported pricing and practical needs for restroom facilities at the River Road celebration, saying a commercial rental would cost about $240 to deliver and pick up. "I need to have permission to make arrangements for 1 portable toilet, which will cost about $240 to have it on-site and have it delivered and picked up," Committee member B said.
Members clarified city equipment availability: one toilet may be available from city parks/open space but it was not certain the city would supply a second unit. Chair asked Committee member B to ask Cindy at the city about reimbursement options; Committee member B agreed to follow up. Committee member E volunteered to contact a local vendor (Bucks) to request a donation or a reduced fee; he reported the vendor might comp drop-off/pickup and leave the event organizers to pay the cleanout (about $100) if donated.
Board members debated capacity: with an expected turnout possibly in the low hundreds, several members said two toilets are likely insufficient and recommended pursuing donations or renting additional units if reimbursement does not cover them. The Chair and Committee member B agreed to determine city reimbursement status before making final rental arrangements.
