PFAS drinking water settlements

Stormwater trash discharge at Ohio Avenue ditch
A 36-inch pipe is dumping trash into the Peghorn canal; the city estimates a compliant trash sock would cost $100,000+ to install with $5,000-15,000 a year in maintenance. Council directed staff to meet on-site with FDOT and to engage the city's lobbyists.
