Resident seeks restoration after year-long gas disconnection; council takes no action
Summary
Frank Doucette told the council that a gas line was broken on 06/24/24 when someone mowing damaged it, leading to meter removal and service disconnection for an unpaid balance; the council took no action but said Catalino will be contacted to consider relocating the meter.
Resident Frank Doucette described a gas line break he said occurred on 06/24/24 after "someone mowing broke his gas line causing a leak," and said his service has been disconnected and the meter removed for about a year. The council recorded the issue and took no action to restore service during the June 23 meeting; minutes note that the disconnection is due in part to an unpaid balance and that staff will contact Catalino to see about relocating a meter.
The minutes do not record an estimated repair date, a cost estimate, or whether the city or the utility will bear relocation or repair costs. Council members did not vote to restore service at the meeting, and no timeline for follow-up was recorded in the minutes.
