New Athens approves ammonia tester ($1,121) and multi-parameter meter ($4,540.05) for water testing
Summary
Superintendent Chris Remick told the board increased testing frequency requires new equipment. The board approved purchase of an ammonia tester for $1,121.00 and a multi-parameter meter for $4,540.05 by roll-call votes with all members present.
Chris Remick told trustees that ammonia testing frequency increased from monthly to twice weekly, requiring new instruments. He presented the cost for an ammonia tester at $1,121.00 and a multi‑parameter meter at $4,540.05; both purchases were approved by roll‑call vote.
Remick said he previously conducted ammonia testing monthly but now must test twice weekly. Trustees voted to proceed with the purchases; the minutes do not show budget source details, so staff will need to confirm funding and procurement steps prior to purchase.
