Clemson School Sets Timetable On Sewer Reconstruction
Middletown officials and the school board haggled over off site sewer and drainage costs tied to the Clemson Park elementary site. Public Works Commissioner Abt said the sewer problem must be fixed within five years, with the board aiming for a faster timetable of within three years. The dispute centered on who pays for off-site improvements as the district plans to buy the 27.5 acre Clemson site for 100000, while city residents seek lower taxes. The two bodies pledged closer cooperation, but no agreement emerged on spreading off-site costs across district taxpayers or charging the Clemson estate.
