Summary

Township reported two days of pumping downstream due to interceptor problems; supervisors said a preliminary feasibility study for the Unity Township Municipal Authority Crabtree project returned favorable numbers and may be more cost‑effective than a MAWC option.

Board members reported that sewage was pumped from the township pumping station for two days because downstream interceptors in White Valley were overloaded; FTMSA handled the pumping and the township reported no problem with its own station or lines.

Supervisor Kerry Jobe updated the board on the Unity Township Municipal Authority Crabtree sewage project, saying the preliminary feasibility study produced “good numbers.” He noted that while Morris Knowles work may cause a modest increase in invoices, the project appears more cost‑effective than pursuing an option with MAWC and a final PowerPoint will be presented when numbers are complete. The board indicated the top of the service area will be labeled as number 6 and that running lines further did not materially increase per‑connection costs.
