Notley Casts Deciding Vote on Water Works Engineer

Council President Notley cast the deciding vote after an 4 to 4 split on a measure to hire a resident engineer two junior assistants and two inspectors for a $25,000 water well at the Lake Erie pumping station. The vote followed opposition citing debt and non necessity with salaries set at 225 dollars monthly for the engineer five dollars daily for each junior assistant six dollars daily for one inspector and five for the other. The measure may not require all positions, as service director Faxon noted potential overstaffing while Nelson urged a time limit and questioned continuing retention of staff from completed projects.
