Webster Town Meeting Backs $810,000 in Projects

Town Meeting · Meeting of October 19, 2026

Webster Town Meeting approved $810,000 across five articles for fire station repairs, a town hall sign and sewer projects. Voters backed $150,000 for Fire Station 2 roof and fencing work (60-0), $60,000 for a new LED town hall sign (59-3), $300,000 for a wastewater disinfection system study (57-4), $150,000 for French River sewer interceptor design (58-3), and $150,000 in supplemental biosolids dewatering design funds (60-3). Water and Sewer Superintendent Tom Cutler said sludge disposal costs could exceed $1 million within two to three years, warning "that will impact rates." Finance Committee member Delgado's push to table the final vote over alleged "missing receipts" was resolved when Town Accountant Tim Bell explained the town had simply awaited state certification of $1 million in reimbursement.
