The form requested authorization for an additional $3,388.00 to clean the four water tanks that comprise the reservoirs for the Town water system. The original proposal for $4,999.00 was approved by Council May 6, 2013, and was valid for one year from the approval date. Excessive accumulation of sediment necessitated the increase in labor costs. Because the diving crew was already on site, immediate authorization was necessary to facilitate completion of the task and to serve the best interest of the Town. USED CAR LOT UPDATE No further progress to be reported at this time. COMMITTEE REPORTS Joyce Huber, Link Board Representative, informed Council that the Link Board will meet Tuesday, June 17th.
