Water system staff updated the council on required testing and maintenance and described plans for a system flush once tests are completed.
Staff said Five County contractor Burl will assist with required testing and training; once testing is done, water flushing will be scheduled to fit the operator’s availability and the town will notify residents. Council members noted the leak-report count has fallen since a new operator began work and commended staff for progress.
Separately, council members discussed a deteriorating ditch and failing curb along the state highway. They agreed an engineering quote will be required to apply to UDOT for possible state funding (historically awarded as “cement money” for sidewalks). Staff will first contact the state to confirm whether UDOT will be interested and then, if so, request contractor quotes before pursuing an application.
