City Engineer Rebuts Encroaching Critics
City Engineer Joseph T. Kasper defended the sewer plan at a Common Council hearing after Aldermen George Brown and George Scott accused the department of encroaching on residents without notice. Three Chopsey Hill residents protested the sale sewer layout through their properties, including Charles Kelly who argued the plan would run through his front yard where utilities and a pipeline exist. Kasper explained the usual notice practice is to inform property owners for the council hearing and that the department aims to help residents, not harm them.
