Staff says library well tests show elevated arsenic; filtration system under consideration
Summary
Staff told the board that library well test results showed arsenic concerns and that DPW has a quote for a filtration/water softener system; staff suggested using the library's capital reserve funds to pay for the system.
Staff reported that recent testing of the library well showed elevated arsenic and recommended installing a filtration/water softener system. A DPW representative (Mr. Bullock) secured at least one quote for a filtration system, and staff said they had discussed using the library's capital reserve funds to cover the cost.
The board had no immediate changes to the plan but noted the concern and asked staff to coordinate with the library and DPW on procurement and funding. No dollar amount for the quote was recorded in the transcript and no formal motion to fund the work was taken at the meeting.
