Committee discusses clogged pond outlet, considers camera or Roto-Rooter
Summary
Members said a clog may be blocking the pond outlet at the east end; options considered include using waders, a camera down the pipe, or hiring a Roto-Rooter, with John Squires having inspected the site.
Committee members reported concern about water flow at the pond's east end and said John Squires had inspected the site and believed a clog exists inside the outlet pipe beneath the street.
Members discussed inspection options: waiting until water levels drop, sloshing into shallow water to feel for debris, renting waders, using a bore-camera to look inside the pipe, or hiring a Roto‑Rooter or similar service to attempt clearing. "He said he's kind of done some investigating and he feels that we've got a clog down there," a committee member said while reporting John Squires' assessment.
The committee agreed to investigate further with volunteer assistance and to research camera options and rental equipment before scheduling any costly or risky work in the pipe.
