Town workers identify leaking valve near McCluskey's; plan repairs
Summary
Officials reported a leaking valve near McCluskey's and outlined temporary fixes (stainless bolts, wrapping) and a plan to inspect and replace corroded parts; crews will return next week to investigate and coordinate equipment access.
A board member told the meeting that crews found a leaking valve near McCluskey's that required digging through asphalt to access the cover; the valve appeared new but bolts were corroded and the soil is highly alkaline. Staff proposed using stainless steel fasteners, wrapping the valve to keep dirt away, and scheduling a truck to inspect whether it is suitable for repair without major excavation.
Staff said they will try to coordinate a backhoe or tactical truck to access the valve for a proper repair and recommended blue-stake location checks before digging. The board agreed to plan the repair next week and have staff report back on parts and schedule.
