Summary
The South Shore Town Board approved warrants totaling $152,744.96 and authorized a $108,966.50 pay request to J&J Earthworks for the water project (payment pending inspection); the town’s Water Fund shows a negative balance while checks await loan/grant deposits.
The South Shore Town Board on Oct. 7 approved warrants totaling $152,744.96 and approved contractor payments tied to the town’s ongoing water project.
Finance Officer Michelle Zirbel presented fund balances showing a General Fund of $111,872.97 and a Water Fund balance of $(326,535.20), a negative figure that the minutes note includes checks issued but not mailed while the town awaits loan and grant deposits. Warrants included items across General, Water and Sewer funds such as legal fees, payroll, water testing and parts.
During new-business motions the board approved payment request #6 to J&J Earthworks in the amount of $108,966.50; that payment was approved “pending the inspection of installation of correct materials.” The board also approved pay request #10 to Helm’s Engineering for $4,074.00. All motions on warrants and the two pay requests carried by recorded motions and votes.
The approvals move forward a large phase of the water project while the town waits for external funding to clear; the board conditioned the J&J Earthworks draw on an inspection confirming correct materials. The board set its next regular meeting for Nov. 10, 2025.
