CEDAR KEY WATER AND SEWER DISTRICT EXPLAINS UPCOMING WORK2 December 2024
On December 2, 2024, the Cedar Key Water and Sewer District conducted a brief meeting at 5 pm, following an Open House at 4 pm at the City of Cedar Key City Hall, instead of the CKWSD offices due to the damage from Hurricane Helene. The five commissioners were in attendance: Chair Mike Borelli, Secretary / Treasurer Leslie Sturmer, and Commissioners Joe Hand, Steve Rosenthal, and Johnathan Ferguson.
The Open House setting displayed several approximately four-by-five foot posters explaining what lift stations were and how they functioned. Additionally, a four-by-seven-foot map display detailed each lift station functioning south of Bridge Number Four. Audience members easily located their homes and the closest lift stations.
Most interactive and informative were Superintendent Gabe Doty, General Manager John Rittenhouse, and , of course, James McCain himself. Every conceivable question was asked; audience members walked away more knowledgeable.
At the brief 5 pm meeting, General Manager Rittenhouse introduced Baskerville-Donavan, Inc.’s Engineer of Record for the project, Tyler Lee of Pensacola, Florida. He also introduced the construction management crew, Cody Sutterfield of Select Water and Adam Brang of C and B Civil Engineering.
General Manager John Rittenhouse reminded all those present that, though grants have been achieved, now is the time to again thank Governor DeSantis and Florida legislators Chuck Clemons and Keth Perry, as well as their soon-to-be-seated replacements.
The meeting adjourned at approximately 5:30 p.m..
