A discussion then took place about the water tank inspection. The quotes for this project were too high so the project is on hold until a new negotiation can be made.
There will be expenses to either clean, inspect and clean or replace all 6 tanks.
The committee then discussed and reviewed the update on the water main replacement project. This is the project that will replace the oldest water lines in the city.
The contract for the Engineering portion of the water main project was granted to Kentucky Engineering by city council.
