An audience member asked about a storage tank and staff reported temporarily high chlorine levels that will be addressed by dilution. Commissioners heard the new well is running well while the old well likely needs repair or replacement. The meeting adjourned after a motion by Doug Green.

During commission comments on June 11, an audience member asked about a tank on the far side of a nearby hill. Marcus (first name only in the minutes) told the commission chlorine levels in the tank were temporarily high and staff planned to drain and dilute the water to reduce chlorine concentrations.

Commissioners also received an update on the town's wells: staff reported the new well is functioning well, while the old well needs repair or replacement and the town will consider redoing the old well or installing a new well at the same location. The meeting concluded when Commissioner Doug Green moved to adjourn, seconded by Jim Jones; the minutes record 'Yes' votes for Doug Green, Robert Thayne, Don Ruhl, Cindy Gibbons and Jim Jones and note that the motion passed.
