During the meeting, it was revealed that Eli Torres plans to resign from the Sewer Commission due to increased work responsibilities. This development necessitates the recruitment of a replacement to ensure the commission remains fully staffed and continues its operations efficiently.

In financial updates, the commission discussed the payment of a privilege fee by a property owner, which will positively impact the commission’s finances. This payment situation required the approval of several commission members and will now proceed to the treasurer’s office for final processing.

The commission also tackled the preparation of the annual report for fiscal 2024. The report, which provides a summary of the year’s activities and financial data, is due by February 17th. A commission member has volunteered to draft the report.

Staffing was another key topic, with progress reported on the search for an assistant to the business manager. Two candidates have been identified, with interviews scheduled in the coming weeks. This potential addition to the team is expected to enhance the commission’s operational capacity.

The meeting concluded with a reminder to residents about responsible waste disposal, emphasizing the importance of not flushing non-degradable items like flushable wipes, which can cause blockages in the sewer system.
