ANSONIA – A public hearing is scheduled for 6 p.m. April 30 at the Ansonia Senior Center (65 Main St., 2nd floor) on Aquarion’s $56 million offer to purchase the city’s wastewater collection and treatment system.
Aquarion placed the bid on April 3. It includes a $41 million cash payment to the city, as well as a promise to invest $15 million in capital improvements in their first five years of ownership.
The bid also includes a 10-year property tax exemption for Aquarion, as well as the establishment of a ‘rate stabilization fund’ using $7 million of current Water Pollution Control Authority (WPCA) assets.
Aquarion says the fund will help soften rate hikes.
Beginning in December of last year, he allegedly began sending vulgar messages to the victim and requesting lewd pictures and videos in exchange for money.
