Water superintendent reports 69,000-gallon daily usage; plans meter replacements and source work with consultant
Summary
Water Superintendent Ronnie told the Stronghurst board he is working with Benton and Associates on the water source project, plans to move indoor meters to outside pits when weather warms, and reported daily water levels of about 69,000 gallons.
The Village of Stronghurst's water superintendent reported progress on a water-source project and described seasonally timed meter work at the Jan. 6 board meeting.
Ronnie said the department is "still working with Benton and Associates on the water source project." He told the board that when warmer weather arrives staff will replace some water meters that are currently inside buildings and will "dig a pit outside so they can be in the ground and not freeze during the winter months." Ronnie reported, "Water levels are staying around 69,000 gallons a day." The board did not record a motion tied to the report; the update was entered in the minutes for operational follow-up.
No capital cost estimates or dates were provided for the meter replacements or the water-source work; the entry in the minutes indicates the project is at the planning/engineering stage.
