HomeMy WebLinkAboutReport of the Engineer 1980VILLAGE OF CAYUGA HEIGHTS Report of Engineer January 1981 SNOW REMOVAL The extremely cold weather and frequent snow falls have made it necessary to use more than the usual amount of salt and sand on the Village roads. The entire $h500 budgeted for snow removal supplies has been spent, almost entirely for salt. A different type of salt has been found to be available at a much lower cost. It is found to be acceptable for ice removal, and we are now using it. SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT A report has been received from Finger Lakes Diving Center on the inspec- tion of the outfall pipes that are in Cayuga Lake. In general, the pipes are in excellent condition. There is some indication of minor seepage from the 16 -in. plastic outfall pipe approximately 15 feet from the outfall chamber where we have installed a repair sleeve. SICK LEAVE POLICY The Public Works Committee has met and drafted a Statement of Policy on sick leave. Further work on this statement and meeting with the Nblic Works force is scheduled before presentation to the Board.
