AI Summary

These pumps are installed on private property. The Select Board, which is the town's governing body, will decide how much money is provided, ensuring that each property owner receives the same amount. The payments will only be made after the town's wastewater superintendent has inspected and approved the installed low-pressure pump. This measure is intended to offset the costs for residents who will need these pumps to connect to the new sewer infrastructure.
