At its meeting this week, the Administrative Services Committee recommended turning a “lake” back into a “pond.” Tony Leotta, city engineer, and Mike Smith, DPW commissioner, requested the purchasing agent seek proposals to clean out the culvert, beneath the approach to East Seneca Street Bridge to correct the flooding problem. The existing 24-inch diameter culvert under the easterly approach to the East Seneca Street bridge is plugged and is creating a large “lake” on the property between Route 104 and East Seneca Street adjacent to the CSX Railroad, Leotta said.
Involved in the presentation were John FitzGibbons, varsity baseball player Brandon Schultzkie, varsity lacrosse member Alexa Healy, river’s end owner Bill Reilly and Buc Booster Club President Judy Dunsmoor.
