Public works requests pontoon purchase to ease wastewater work; council to seek local options
Summary
Superintendent Shawn Durbin asked the council to consider buying a small pontoon boat to ease lifting heavy air pods at the wastewater plant; council agreed to contact local marinas for options.
Superintendent Shawn Durbin told the council the current method of lifting air pods at the wastewater treatment plant requires two city employees and places strain on their backs and arms. He recommended the city consider purchasing a small pontoon boat to adapt an easier lifting system.
After discussing the proposal, the council reached consensus to contact local marinas for pontoon options. The minutes record no motion to appropriate funds or to purchase at this meeting; further procurement steps were left to staff.
