Montpelier Replaces Failed Well Pump for $11,805
From the Montpelier Board of Public Works meeting on October 14, 2026
Montpelier replaced well pump No. 2 after it failed, at a reported cost of $11,805 to pull and replace the pump.
Brad Neff, reading the water-department report, said an executive decision had been made to replace it as soon as possible. The expense had already been undertaken rather than presented as a new proposal.
The report did not identify the contractor or city fund, and no separate ratification vote was taken. It did not establish a loss of residential water service or unsafe water.
