The Trenton Utility Committee met Tuesday evening, agreeing to make a recommendation to the city council for a purchase.
According to Trenton City Administrator/Utility Director Ron Urton, the only action taken at the meeting was to agree to recommend to the full council that a backhoe be ordered for the Underground Department since the cost of the equipment will increase April 1. It was also discussed that the Street Department is in the same situation. The recommendation will be on the agenda for the March 28 city council meeting.
Of note in his report, Urton said that the water crew is still in the process of replacing old meters for the AMI system but continues to have difficulty getting permission to access basements to replace the meters. Urton said final notices will be sent before more “drastic measures” are taken. The next regular meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, April 19.
