million, without increasing taxes. (Tom is trying to get his power point on the subject). Political <br /> decision to sewer the entire town(why one part vs. another). They think they can do it through <br /> the tax base without much betterments. <br /> Tom thinks Mashpee has to think carefully about paying for sewering fairly. Many people <br /> cannot afford a-betterment; the health of the Bays benefit everyone. Spreading over the whole <br /> tax base seems like fairer way to go. <br /> Summerwood condos-have a failed septic system. DEP is allowing them to hold off on <br /> replacing until the facilities plan is complete; find out where they fit in the plan. <br /> Tom said he spoke to Nate Weeks about Geo Flow and he is concerned bout freezing, Don said <br /> id was developed and tested in Minnesota! Tom told him to include it in our plan. <br /> Tom would also like to take a serious look at vacuum sewers. <br /> Matt is concerned, would like to see a track record. <br /> Sewer Commission Budget <br /> Tom has developed a budget to be submitted: $120 for dues and$100 for travel re-imbursement <br /> for members. <br /> Capital Improvement Budget: Tom has been patting a"place holder"in for a few years for: <br /> -discharge pipe to New'Seabury $8.8 million <br /> -taking over private plants and on site management: cost unknown. <br /> Tom has reserved a room for the third Tuesday of every month for 2007. <br /> Earth Tech has submitted a proposal.to upgrade the high school treatment plan. Town asked for <br /> technical and cost proposals separate. Will review merits of technical before opening the cost. <br /> Don visited the high school plant. He found covers for the D-boxes in the fenced in area with no <br /> evidence of water stains. They moved all the rubbish out of that area. The surface area is very <br /> compacted, reason it is retaining water. <br /> Meeting adjourned at 8:55 p.m. <br /> Next scheduled meeting Dec. 19, 2006 <br /> Minutes submitted by Arden R.
