Town Commissioners — 2024-02-28

This is the minutes and agenda for the Queenstown Commissioners meeting of February 28, 2024. Commissioners addressed multiple Public Works items: Del Rhodes Pump Station showed sand/gravel suggesting a nearby break and Commissioners will wait for Delmarva repair bills before approaching Comcast for reimbursement; TL Fence was awarded a $2,295 quote for a new 10' gate; porta‑potty location changes were approved and the town will switch providers if rates are comparable. Comcast will convert about 80 pedestals to flush‑mount vaults starting next week; Talkie has not provided adequate drawings and Rauch recommended options for how to proceed. Other actions/updates: safety benches to be installed soon; letters issued for vehicle/trash violations; Easter Egg Hunt set for March 23; Treasurer balances reported for General ($38,257.15), WS ($36,611.10) and ARPA ($642,330.92); several sets of minutes were approved; manager updates include a March 12 meeting with QAC Economic/Tourism and a cell tower balloon test scheduled March 9; infrastructure items noted—I&I project remains tabled, new water tower easements still needed, membrane clean/valve automation to begin in about two weeks, and Rauch and KCI submitted bids/estimates for the Lead Service Line Inventory (Rauch quote listed as 531,425 and KCI bid $30,317.63). The published record ends mid‑sentence in the discussion of Rauch’s field investigations.
