Mayor Keith Hobbs is comforted by an independent consultant's report that shows equipment at the Atlantic Avenue Water Pollution Plant didn't malfunction during the May 28th flood. Hobbs says he's always held the opinion that the plant was simply overwhelmed by the huge amount of rainfall that night. The Mayor says he's relieved to hear the plant didn't malfunction and that they are dedicated to helping those impacted by the flood. City staff will be back in January with an overall damage assessment of the plant and provide council with its options on how to proceed with the 1.4 million dollars in upgrades that are recommended.
