Mary Alice Reporting – The City of Dover has approved paying the remaining cost of invoices related to the power plant.

Finance Chair Kevin Korns detailed the two ordnances to council and asked for suspension and passage.

The first emergency ordinance 23-22 would authorize the payment of the RCR Services Inc. invoice of $34,251 for work done.

“The other on is emergency ordinance 22-22. It’s an emergency ordinance authorizing the payment of the Sulzer invoices for the work at the Dover Power Plant for 2021 in the remaining amount of $199,348.86.”

This money, which was not properly approved by council by Dave Filippi, the former plant superintendent, relates to overages related to work done on the turbine to bring it back to proper specifications and freight costs for moving the unit back to the plant.
