How do you make a sewage plant more appealing? Just ask City Councilman Nick Pascale (D-1) -- he apparently really knows all about this subject.
Pascale recently suggested that the City put a mural in front of the sewage treatment plant (otherwise known as the "John Picard Promises Memorial"). Pascale's interested in "making the plant look better".
WPC Commissioner Bill Norton responded (while apparently keeping a straight face) the the cost of maintaining such a mural might be prohibitive.
Maybe Norton is wrong...it's likely such a mural would be, um, "self-sustained" by our City's many local artists (supported by the many New Haven artists). Here's an a prediction, Nick:
It's also reassuring to hear that "low-flush toilets" will be installed at the plant. Talk about carrying coals to Newcastle....
In a more serious vein, lost in this discussion is the fact that our sewer use fees might go up as much as $100.00 for repairs needed at the plant. Hmmmm.......
Ya gotta admit, this town really needs to get it's, um, sewage together.
