The Morris City Council approved numerous recommendations regarding water and sewer business at Monday's regular meeting.

A bid opening will be held at 10 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 4, in the council chambers for the SCADA, radio telemetry, project for the central sewage treatment plant and lift stations. The SCADA system is an electronic communications system to alert the sewer department of problems through radios.

It has a system now, said Mayor Richard Kopczick, but the alert system is done through AT&T hard line circuits, which are expensive. Through the radios, the electronic calls alerting a problem are done through radio waves.
