This is the engineering survey done for the Central Weber Sewer Improvement District by engineers, Montgomery Watson Harza (MWH), dated October 17, 2005, which was presented to the Sewer board members at the last Sewer District meeting.
Mayor Godfrey and Councilman Safsten, who are on the board of the Sewer District, were both present at that meeting and received a copy of the Survey as board members.
I find it unconscionable of them to have not divulged this to you who are City Council members prior to your vote Tuesday evening on the Rec Center Project which you confirmed at tonight's League of Women Voters' candidates' meeting was not done.
My understanding is that you knew the Sewer District Survey was in process and that the RDA tax increment from BDO was to be used to pay for the Sewer District's upgrade.
Now the BDO tax increment has been pledged for the Rec Center Project.
The amount of the Sewer District upgrade may amount to $120,000,000 million . It must be done as the District was shut down for 12 hours recently because of overflow.
It comes across to me as a CPA that you have been deliberately misled by the failure of the administration to have given each Council member a copy of the survey before last night's vote on the Rec Center.
That begs the question, "What else has not been disclosed to you as Council members?"
Very truly yours,
Dorothy E. Littrell
