GENERAL DISCUSSION ITEM
Subject:
title
Motion to APPROVE payment of Groton Utilities invoice #0028441, dated July 31, 2025, in the amount of $4,539.68, for Ledyard Bike path support SVCS.
end
Background:
During the August 26, 2025, meeting Ms. Wadecki asked why the invoice was sent to the WPCA for payment. It was said that invoice should have been sent to Steve Masalin, Public Works Director. The Authority did not vote on payment of the invoice. Chairman Lynch signed the invoice for payment, and the invoice was submitted to Finance before it was known that the vote did not take place. When Ian Stammel, Assistant Finance Director, was asked if the invoice should still be submitted for payment without a vote, he said it should be submitted and the WPCA could be reimbursed if necessary. He asked for the vote to be placed back on the September agenda since the invoice is for hydrants, which is the responsibility of the WPCA.
