The village of St. Johnsville is second only to the city of Albany when it comes to having the best-tasting tap water in New York state, at least according to fairgoers.
The results were announced Tuesday at the State Fair in Syracuse, which hosted the championship round. Ten water systems that had won regional contests competed in an unscientific taste test for the top prize, with the state capital besting St. Johnsville by a vote of 46-34.
Officials will need to hammer out the details of what exactly they would like to see done for the village of Dolgeville’s inflow and infiltration remediation project, while considering what work needs to be done to help prevent flooding on homeowners’ properties.
James C. Smith, environmental project manager with the state Environmental Facilities Corporation, spoke with village board members about the financing involved with the sewer project at a special meeting on Monday.
