Supervisors withhold hydrant-maintenance payment; demand proof of work
Summary
The board voted to withhold hydrant-maintenance payments until the municipal authority provides verifiable proof (inspection reports, photos or other documentation) that hydrants were tested and serviced as required under the agreement.
The board confirmed a prior decision to withhold payment to the municipal authority for hydrant maintenance and moved to require verifiable proof of work before remitting funds.
The motion, amended to direct Tim to request substantiating documentation, passed by voice vote. The board said it needed more than an email assertion and requested records, photographs or standardized test reports showing hydrants were inspected and serviced to industry standards before payment would be made.
No deadlines for receipt of the proof were codified on the record, but supervisors said they expected documentation in time to consider payment during upcoming year-end budget actions.
