Last Thursday (May 31), GHI’s Board of Directors held a work session to discuss WSSC’s proposal to move forward with the replacement of exterior water supply pipes for masonry units provided GHI takes on the responsibility for maintenance and future replacement of these pipes after thirty years.
The meeting began in 5 Court Eastway as the Board and attending members reviewed a WSSC pipe replacement project completed in 2008-2009. After the site tour, the group re-convened in the GHI boardroom to continue the meeting.
The open portion of the meeting allowed attending members to ask questions, provide information, and offer perspective on the proposal. GHI General Manager Eldon Ralph provided an overview of the matter along with a chronology of events leading up to the current proposal. Board members also commented.
