Resident requests reimbursement after reporting raw sewage and damage at property
Summary
Frances Gonzalez of 313 Grant Street asked the council for reimbursement for plumber costs and chemicals used since last July, alleging ongoing raw sewage in her backyard and property damage; Mayor DeVere requested plumbing documentation showing the location of damage for future consideration.
Frances Gonzalez (313 Grant Street) submitted a message to the Town website asking the council to reimburse her for the cost of a plumber who inspected her sewer line and for chemicals she has purchased since last July. The transcript records that she described "having a port-a-potty in front of her house for months, damage to her home and raw sewage in her backyard." Mayor DeVere told the council that Gonzalez would need to supply proof from the plumber identifying exactly where the damage to the sewer line is and bring that information to an upcoming meeting for the council to consider.
The council did not record any immediate reimbursement decision; Mayor DeVere framed next steps as a documentation requirement. No dollar amounts for the requested reimbursement were recorded in the transcript.
