2 issues in water utilities with medium priority
Oak Street Pump Station improvements
The city was scheduled to authorize two I-Bank loan applications for pump station upgrades — bar screens, HVAC, grit removal, and odor control. Those systems protect the sewer network and keep odors down for nearby neighbors.
