Summary

Commissioner Shane Rogers asked City Administrator Kim Rogers about moving a sewer line up Highway 321 to serve 26 new Turner Homes customers; Kim said the current contractor could not do the job and staff will seek other contractor contact information and meet with TASS.

Commissioner Shane Rogers asked at the May 7 Friendsville Utility Board meeting whether contractor Nitzschke could move a sewer line up Highway 321 to extend service to new Turner Homes construction. City Administrator Kim Rogers said Nitzschke "couldn't do that job" and that "Chris would get with Bob Colvin to get contact information for someone who could." The board discussed arranging a meeting with Mark Clinton of TASS to explore options.

Kim also told the board there are 26 new sewer customers associated with Turner Homes construction. She said those customers are not Friendsville Water customers, which the city said prevents it from monitoring their water usage. No formal motion or vote was taken on a specific contractor or timeline; the board directed staff to collect contact information and pursue follow-up meetings.
