Approved a Sewer Cleanout to be coordinated with the city?s use of its rotoblade cleaning of its trunk line. They will clean theirs after ours is cleaned. It helped us years ago to do this. An estimate came in at $175/hour by the two companies that the city recommends. Overall it would cost $1400-1750 (including a video inspection of the inside of the lines). Agreed to pay for this out of the roads and utilities reserve fund. The sewer would be cleaned out from the main lines. Approved. |
