The mayor will provide a written proposal to council for this program. Specialty Bakers Sewer Billing - The borough has possibly been overcharging the bakery since 1998, but the billing is now being reviewed. The bakery is not asking for a refund check, but just wants to resolve this issue and agree on a payback plan over a three-year period. The sewer committee recommends going back 12 quarters to resolve this and possible will ask the bakery to report its number of employees on a quarterly basis. Solicitor Mensel explained that the borough currently has no insurance protection, which is risky and unadvisable.
Spills are rare, but catastrophic when they occur.
Insurance premiums have come down quite a bit over the years. Solicitor Mensel will provide a final proposal next month and in the meantime, the sewer committee will meet with the solicitor.
