Board extends sewer moratorium and seeks engineering help, grant funding
The Town of Web extended its moratorium on new Old Forge sewer-district connections and authorized a solicitation for engineering firms to support planned wastewater improvements; the board said the superintendent recommended the extension while pursuing grant funding and an RFQ was released with an August 29 deadline.
The full story
The Town of Web board voted to extend a moratorium on new connections to the Old Forge sewer district, reading a resolution that cites Town Code sections 382‑3 and 382‑17 and the superintendent's recommendation that additional connections and deferred repairs could cause groundwater or public-nuisance risks. The extension allows the moratorium to continue for additional six-month periods and reiterates variance procedures for applicants.
