Clifton orders two grinder pumps as Newton Falls sewer upgrade delays into next year
Summary
Board learned the Newton Falls Sewer District upgrade won't finish before Jan. 1 and approved buying two grinder pumps at about $3,000 each to keep systems operating; motion passed unanimously.
Town officials reported the Newton Falls Sewer District upgrade will not be completed before Jan. 1. To maintain service, the board approved purchasing two grinder pumps at an estimated cost of $3,000 apiece.
Brett Blackmer moved to order the pumps and William Griffin seconded the motion; the board voted unanimously in favor. Bookkeeper Nancy Russell was directed to place the order. The board did not provide a full upgrade schedule or final contract amounts for the larger upgrade during the meeting.
Officials framed the pump purchase as a stopgap measure while the larger upgrade proceeds; no further funding authorizations were made at the Sept. 10 meeting.
