Supervisor Williams and members of the Board IN COD WF. TRUST CST. 1829 HIGHWAY 2v PARKS 4765 NYS Route 41 Cortland, New York 13045 Phone: 607-756.8241 Fax: 607-756-0512 u After the Town adopted the local Law giving the water department employees authority to inspect and ensure that all Private Hydrants in the Town (41 in total) are working properly. We need as the next step adopt a fee for this inspection that will take place on an annual basis. I have researched some local companies that preform this service. They charge on average of $100.00 to $150.00 per hydrant inspection. I would propose with the Boards permission that the Town charge a flat fee of $75.00 per hydrant inspection. This will ensure that we cover our employees time for making the appointments if needed, preforming the inspection, test completion paperwork and painting of each Hydrant bonnet that will color coordinate with all other Hydrants giving the Fire Department the volume of flow that each Hydrant.
