Trustee outlines proposed DPW fees for repeat freeze‑up responses
Summary
Trustee David Budin reported a DPW recommendation for new fees to respond to recurring freeze‑ups: $75 for a weekday first response, $100 for a weekend first response, and an additional $100 for repeat occurrences; the board will review the proposal next month.
Trustee David Budin told the board he met with Department of Public Works staff about frequent freeze‑ups and relayed a recommended fee schedule for emergency responses.
As recorded in the meeting, the proposed schedule is: "1st time weekday freeze is $75.00; weekend freeze is $100.00. 2nd time weekday freeze is $75.00; plus $100.00 fee for re-occurrence." Budin said the proposal will be reviewed and finalized at the next regular meeting. No final vote was taken at the Feb. 17 session.
