Board hears proposal to seek grant-funded sewer-district study; cost figures in transcript require clarification
Summary
A board member said a grant is available for a sewer‑extension feasibility study and suggested the town could cover 10% of the cost. The transcript records inconsistent numbers for total cost and the town share; the board asked staff to investigate grant details before any commitment.
A board member told the Town Board that Nicholas VanDell indicated a grant could fund a sewer-district study to identify areas of Hague most suitable for sewer extension, and suggested it may be timely to pursue such an analysis.
In the meeting the speaker stated the study would identify the best parts of town for sewer extension and said the town’s portion would be 10 percent, but the transcript contains inconsistent numeric values for the total cost and the town share; the board requested staff verify the grant amount and the town’s actual financial obligation before making any commitment. The speaker framed the study as a way to inform future variance decisions and long-term infrastructure planning.
