Jordan Clements, district manager for Otsego County Soil & Water Conservation District made a proposal to the Town Board to be pro-active for future flooding issues the Town will encounter. His proposal is an Inter-Municipal Agreement. Purpose of agreement-Develop a Countywide Stream Maintenance Program.
