Baffle boxes are making waves in Titusville, with city officials praising their effectiveness despite their high costs. During the recent City Council meeting, a discussion highlighted the significant impact these structures have had on local water management. Council members expressed gratitude for the investment, noting that the benefits justify the expense.
Lorley Thompson, a resident and city clerk, shared her concerns about the limited vendor proposals for a recent project but ultimately endorsed the selected company after reviewing their qualifications and community feedback. She emphasized the importance of choosing the right partners for city projects.
Additionally, Thompson recognized Sandra Reller for her outstanding contributions to the community, particularly through the Save Our Indian River Lagoon program. Reller's efforts have secured substantial funding, including a major grant for the Gibson Street sanitary sewer hookup. Her work has brought in over $1.4 million in grants, making Titusville a leader in community funding initiatives.
The meeting underscored the city's commitment to improving infrastructure and environmental sustainability, with officials optimistic about future projects and continued community support.
