In a recent government meeting, the finance committee discussed a proposed transfer of $250,000 from capital stabilization and sewer stabilization funds to support sewer professional services and legal services. This funding is intended to facilitate the development of a Request for Proposal (RFP) related to an upcoming contract, as highlighted by Councilor Devine.

During the session, the council debated the necessity of the transfer, with some members expressing concerns. The motion to adopt the transfer was put to a vote, resulting in a tally of 8 votes in favor and 5 against. However, with only 13 council members present, the motion ultimately failed to pass.

The discussion underscores ongoing efforts to secure legal advice and prepare for future contractual obligations within the sewer services sector, reflecting the council's commitment to prudent financial management and operational readiness.
