Town accepts $48,500 wastewater planning grant to study sewer extension to Lake George shore
Summary
The board accepted a $48,500 planning grant awarded by Governor Kathy Hochul to study feasibility of extending sanitary sewer service along the Lake George shore; the town will contribute roughly $9,700 in in‑kind labor (force account).
The town voted to accept a wastewater infrastructure engineering planning grant awarded by Governor Kathy Hochul for $48,500 to study options and prioritize improvements for extending sanitary sewer service along sections of the Lake George shoreline. The chair said the grant-funded report will examine alternatives, prioritize improvements and aim to reduce nutrient loading to improve lake water quality.
Officials said the town's contribution would be mostly in-kind labor (about $9,700) as a force account rather than a large cash match. The board approved moving the grant acceptance forward; the transcript records the vote to accept the grant and staff described next steps for the feasibility study but did not record a firm implementation schedule or engineering scope beyond general study objectives.
