TIRED OF LOOKING AT THE SEWER ARTICLE? FINE, LET'S GIVE SOME OF YOU MALCONTENTS SOMETHING NEW TO LOOK AND TALK AND KNOCK ABOUT. HOW'S THAT?
LET'S SEE. WHAT SHALL WE FRIGGIN' TALK ABOUT? LET'S START WITH THINGS GOING ON NATIONALLY RIGHT NOW. THE CASEY ANTHONY/CAYLEE ANTHONY TRIAL GETTING UNDERWAY IS GETTING ON MY LAST NERVE. THE TROUBLE SEATING A JURY IS UNDERSTANDABLE WITH THE NATIONAL ATTENTION THIS CASE HAS RECEIVED. BUT, HEY, WE COULD SEAT A TRIAL A FEW COUNTIES AWAY FOR THE DAVID CAMM CASE (WHICH SHOULD BE REARING ITS UGLY HEAD SOON).
LOCALLY, AND ALL POLITICS ARE LOCAL, A LOT OF THINGS HEADED TOWARDS A SHOWDOWN. WE HAVE ELECTIONS, MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT WE THE TAXPAYERS ARE TO PAY FOR, AN EXTRAORDINARY AMOUNT OF MONEY BEING ASKED FOR BY DNA FOR THE FARMER'S MARKET, WE HAVE OVER A $3 MILLION (THREE MILLION) DOLLAR SHORTFALL TO CUT FROM THE BUDGET, CANDIDATES WILL BE LOOKING FOR A NEW FIRE CHIEF AND POLICE CHIEF, BENEDETTI'S TRIAL, ETC. HOW MUCH MORE CAN WE GO ON?
WE'LL SAY WHAT WE WANT TO SAY AND WHEN WE WANT TO SAY IT. WE WILL SAY WE BELIEVE SOMEONE DIDN'T WANT AND TOLD MAYOR ENGLAND HE COULD NOT RUN FOR MAYOR. WE BELIEVE THIS THE REASON WHY HE CHOKED UP WHEN HE ANNOUNCED HE WOULD NOT.
WE BELIEVE THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE GOING ON WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND. WHY DID SIPES NOT SUPPORT ENGLAND'S CANDIDATE IN STUMLER AND INSTEAD ENDORSE JEFF GAHAN? WE ARE SIMPLY WONDERING. WE ARE HAPPY, BUT WE ALL KNOW SIPES AND ENGLAND WERE THE BEST OF BUDDIES AT ONE TIME. GO SIPES.
WE DO KNOW THE SEWERS FAILED THE CITY DESIGNED 100 YEAR STORM PLAN AND WITH OUR MONEY WHEN THE CITY WAS TOLD THE PLAN WOULDN'T WORK. THERE WILL BE REPERCUSSIONS HERE, ALSO. THERE IS A SERIOUS QUESTION AS TO WHY THAT PARTICULAR PLAN WAS CHOSEN, AFTER THE BOARD AND THE PUBLIC HAD SEEN THE VOTE GO THE OTHER WAY AND THE EPA SAYING THEY COULD DO NOTHING UNTIL THE PLAN FAILED. TELL US.

THE SEWER PLAN (2001) FAILED
THE ISSUE IS THE SEWER PLAN SELECTED IN 2001 FAILED. WE DID NOT MEET THE REQUIRED CRITERIA OF A 100 YEAR STORM.
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE TWO ENGINEERS WHO RESIGNED FROM THE SEWER BOARD FOR THEIR HARD WORK IN TRYING TO SELECT THE CORRECT PLAN, AND LISTENING TO THE PUBLIC.
ONE OF THREE PLANS WAS SELECTED BY THE SEWER BOARD AND PUBLIC.
THERE WAS A CLOSED DOOR MEETING LATER AND THE PLAN SELECTED WAS CHANGED, BY ONE VOTE. THE PERSON ON THE SEWER BOARD WHO CHANGED THEIR VOTE WAS CHAS HUNTER. THIS IS THE POINT IN TIME WHEN OUR TWO ENGINEERS RESIGNED. FORMER MAYOR HUNTER WAS ASKED IN THE HALLWAY WHY HE CHANGED HIS VOTE. HE REPORTED HE NEEDED THE JOB.
WE WILL NOW WAIT AND SEE THE INFORMATION THE CITY (EMC) REPORTS TO IDEM AND THE EPA ABOUT OUR LAST STORM.
THIS BLOG HAS NO IDEA AS TO WHAT HAPPENED TO THE LAST ARTICLE WROTE, ALONG WITH THE DETAILS OR COMMENTS. BLOGGER CRASHED AND THE ARTICLE AND COMMENTS WERE LOST.
THANK YOU AGAIN BILL UTZ AND BOB LEDFORD!

THE LATEST (2001) SEWER PLAN FAILED, THAT'S ALL FOLKS
THE ISSUE IS THE LAST SEWER PLAN FAILED. OVER 40 MILLION DOLLARS SPENT AND THE PLAN DIDN'T WORK.
PLEASE REMEMBER THE HARD WORK PERFORMED BY THE TWO ENGINEERS WHO RESIGNED FROM THE SEWER BOARD BECAUSE OF THE VOTE DONE BEHIND CLOSED DOORS PICKING THIS PLAN.
THAT'S ALL.

NO MORE EMC?!?
BREAKING NEWS, HOT OFF THE PRESSES. ENGLAND HAS FIRED, LET GO, TERMINATED, GOTTEN RID OF EMC (THE COMPANY WHO WAS MANAGING OUR SEWER SYSTEMS).
THE CITIZENS SPENT A TON OF MONEY MAKING SURE THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY COULD HANDLE A 100 YEAR STORM. AFTER THE RAIN WE HAD, CITIZENS WONDERED IF THE SEWAGE PLANT WAS DOING WHAT IT WAS SUPPOSE TO DO AND I UNDERSTAND IT DIDN'T. RAW SEWAGE WAS RUNNING ACROSS ROADS IN NEW ALBANY, I.E., BY MAINLAND BANK ON CHARLESTOWN ROAD (AND VARIOUS OTHER PLACES). DID WE FAIL THE 100 YEAR STORM TEST?
WE ALSO ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE TWO EMERGENCY BACK UP GENERATORS IN CASE OF POWER FAILURES. WE HAVE BEEN WONDERING IF THOSE FAILED WITH THE PUBLISHED REPORTS OF GENERATORS FAILING IN THE EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENTS.
WASN'T THERE RECENTLY PUBLISHED REPORTS OF A NEW CONTRACT NEGOTIATED WITH EMC SAVINGS CITIZENS 1.7 MILLION?
WE ARE NOT HESITANT TO SAY WE DO NOT FEEL ENGLAND IS CAPABLE OF RUNNING OUR SEWERS (PAST EXPERIENCE AND HISTORY). WE ALSO DO NOT FEEL WILKERSON NOR BRINKWORTH, NOT WILKERSON'S SON IS CAPABLE OF RUNNING OUR SEWER PLANT AND OR PROJECTS.
DID EMC TAKE THE EQUIPMENT? ARE WE CAPABLE OF PREPARING THE MONTHLY REQUIRED SEWER REPORTS TO THE EPA WITH THE MINUSCULE DETAILS REQUIRED BY FEDERAL LAW?
ARE WE GOING TO BE SUED FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT?
THERE ARE ALWAYS MORE THINGS BEHIND THE SCENES THAN MEET THE EYES, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO SEWERS AND ENGLAND.
IF ANYONE COMES UP WITH MORE INFORMATION, WILL YOU PLEASE LET US KNOW?
THE AUDIT SHOULD HAVE COME OUT BEFORE THE ELECTION BUT CONVENIENTLY DID NOT, CONCERNING SEWER FINANCIALS.
NO ENGLAND, THERE ARE MORE THAN A FEW OF US WHO DO NOT BELIEVE YOU NOR WILKERSON NOR BRINKWORTH ARE CAPABLE OF MANAGING/RUNNING OUR SEWERS. WONDER WHY?
