Utility Director Jon Hall said a clarifier gearbox had worn and become inoperable; council approved repairs that will require removal and machine-shop rebuilding to restore the treatment plant clarifiers.

City utility staff told the Lindale City Council that a gearbox on a wastewater treatment-plant clarifier has worn and become inoperable and needs to be rebuilt in a machine shop. Utility Director Jon Hall said the system must be removed and completely rebuilt to restore clarifier function, and the council approved repairs to return the equipment to service.

The minutes contain inconsistent references to the "Northside" and "Southside" wastewater plants in this item; the council approved repairs but the record should be clarified in subsequent minutes so contracting and work orders reference the correct facility. Bob Tardiff moved to approve the repairs and Sallie Black seconded; the minutes record unanimous approval.
