Tim Carroll’s response to
Gabe Fisher. -jsq
Gabe,
I know you are frustrated and pissed. My hope was with the info
below all could see the city has not just been idly sitting by. What
has been so frustrating for us is that our biggest problem is
outside of the city limits.As discussed below, we are about 90% complete on the design for the
big force main project. Once completed it will eliminate the sewage
spills during high rain events in your neighborhood.
Just spoke with Larry Hanson and the WWTP is firing back up as we
speak. Soon you should start seeing the current spills end as the
system is brought fully back up and running.Something I might add we could not have done so quickly had we not
taken the steps we did these past several days.In regards to clean up —
I am working to get confirmation on
when, but yes- city crews will start cleaning up the spill areas in
your neighborhood and others.If there is more you need for us to do — just ask. I cannot
promise we can do all everyone would want, but we certainly can take
a look.Sincerely,
Councilman Tim Carroll
