# Juneau Utility 09/21/2026

The Juneau Utility Commission meeting on September 21, 2026, approved the vouchers and checks (no total was stated) and approved a $64,200 proposal from Applied Technologies for design and bidding services for UV disinfection at the wastewater treatment plant. The commission also approved spending up to $4,200 on utility track mats, using funds from an unused 2026 budget item. A $41,000 shipment of wastewater chemicals was cited as the reason for higher-than-usual July expenses; this was an explanation of recorded costs, not a new purchasing vote.

The commission voted to move budgeted substation-expansion funds, including a recently received $500,000 WPPI loan, into the Local Government Investment Pool while the project is delayed: ATC’s materials schedule pushes its work to late 2027 and early 2028. Review of the proposed 2027 utility budget and capital items—including trailers, wastewater-plant repairs, sewer inspection, and confined-space rescue equipment—was deferred for further information and discussion; no approval of those items was recorded. Commissioners also discussed obtaining warranty documents and considering legal advice regarding wastewater digester mixers, but took no procurement action on that matter.
