Village of Industry board agrees to one-year trial of Gworks water‑billing system
Summary
Trustees agreed at a special Oct. 10 meeting to a one‑year trial of Gworks, which acquired UBMax, after the vendor raised its annual fee from $750 to $2,250; the board said a complete overhaul may be needed when new meters are installed.
The Village of Industry Board of Trustees agreed on Oct. 10 to a one‑year trial of the Gworks water‑billing and meter‑reading system after the vendor that acquired UBMax raised its annual fee. The board recorded that the system’s price "has increased from $750 to $2,250 annually" and decided to trial Gworks while the village evaluates options tied to an upcoming water‑meter replacement.
Superintendent Gorsuch expressed a preference for staying with the Gworks system because of technical assistance he receives from Tiffany with TEST in Bushnell, and trustees noted UBMax no longer exists following the acquisition. The minutes say the trial will last one year and that a full system overhaul could be required after new meters are installed depending on what the replacement meters and vendor can support. No public comments were recorded during the meeting.
