Manager Report: The status on the feasibility study for possibly purchasing the former City of Springboro water plant on Dayton Oxford Road.  Mr. Terry Morris contacted Mr. Townsend on where we stood with our study.  If we have abandoned the concept they would like to sale the salvable parts and demolish it.  Spoke with Dr. John Eastman, of LJB who asked ( 1 ) Is our interest in acquiring the plant so that we can produce water cheaper? Or ( 2 ). Or control our own destiny?  Suggestion from Dr. Eastman is that we build our own plant in a better location and/or work with Springboro on an inter connection  and/or check other potential water suppliers as a negotiating tactic for cheaper rates. Mr. Townsend not convinced that finishing the feasibility study to acquire the plant would be prudent. John & Shelby have reservations that the final analysis would support acquiring the plant versus acquiring land and building our own facility.  Rather to focus on building elements of our system that would set up for an independent system later on.

 

Committee Report: Mayor Ellender announced that the Finance Committee did meet to review  the 2nd quarter  and everything is fine, Income Tax Funds are still up.
