Director of Public Works White presented the staff report explaining the project was the first of a two (2) stage project.

The project included clean-up of contaminated soil, a new underground concrete storm drain pump storage well, four pumps, installation of new electrical equipment and an emergency generator. The project met specific cost targets, however a bit more money was spent on hazardous clean-up due to the fact that the site had once supported a Battery Recycling Facility.
