Sewer lift station backup generators

Troy

Summary

Four critical sewer lift stations will get permanent natural-gas backup generators so power outages don't leave the city running mobile generators back and forth — and risking sewage backups into neighborhoods. The cost came in at $740,807, roughly double the original estimate after design work finished.
