Pennsylvania-based Severn Trent Services, after several delayed votes, is expected to be Mayor Frank Melton’s recommendation to continue running the city’s wastewater system.
City Council members – for the sixth time in seven weeks – today are scheduled to vote on the contract.
“They (council members) are going to have to vote one way or another on this,” Melton said.
Melton has pulled all previous votes from the council’s agenda, leaving the city more than a month past its original deadline to pick one of three companies competing for the contract.
