residents prior to installation of their Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV).
The contractor for the water and sewer project is anticipating the
water line change over in that area tomorrow.
Janet Prosser expressed concern with a letter of December 30,
2011 explaining the water would be shut off during the installation
of the vault and valves and that it would be turned back on if the
necessary signatures were received on the document. She requested
a continuation of water service during a period of time for further
discussion of the agreement and an extension to sign the agreement
up until January 31, 2012. RJ May and Rick Grandalen also expressed
concern with the late notice.
Councilman Dickson explained the purpose of the utility license is
to allow the Subdivision's equipment within the Town's right-of-way
and that the urgency is due to the construction installation schedule.
It was explained that the money previously paid by the subdivision
residents was to provide the funding necessary for the contractor to
purchase their equipment. The Town's Legal Counsel had advised
that an agreement should be in place if the equipment is to be installed
on town property.

discussions.
Council was reminded of the upcoming WAM Winter Workshop
