Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
WINONA LAKE - Purchase and installation of flow meters to measure the sewage going to Warsaw was approved by the town council Tuesday.
Public works superintendent Pete O'Connell said the costs would be about $7,000 and he would be able to check for infiltration of storm water, if any, because the amount of flow would spike after rain. The town also will be able to know how much sewage is being treated by Warsaw's wastewater treatment plant.
Town coordinator Craig Allebach commented on several issues, saying plans for the Winona Greenway construction are being finalized and bids are being prepared for advertisement.
The Boys and Girls Club has been active in the Senior Center and the Feb. 3 senior luncheon "went well."
The board also:
• Made board appointments: Rolly Ortega, Jeff Carroll and Craig Allebach to the plan commission, where there also is one vacancy; Mike Grill to the Board of Zoning Appeals; Don Fluke to the housing authority, where there also is one vacancy; Al Disbro to the economic development commission, where there also is one vacancy; and Judy Mugg, Dennis Daniels, Judy Reneker, Al Disbro and Robert Piecuch to the redevelopment commission.
