TREZEVANT — Trezevant’s Board of Aldermen held their second public hearing in as many months last Tuesday, March 12, regarding the town’s water and sewer system. This month, the board and several concerned citizens were introduced to companies interested in either buying the town’s water and sewer system or just managing it. Alderman Pam Joyner introduced the representatives that were present from various companies. They all made a short presentation introducing themselves and their companies and what they do and answered questions from the public and the board.
The first speaker was Mr. Evan Romo, division manager for Alliance Water Resources. Alliance offers services to municipal water, wastewater and public works systems, investor-owned utilities, not-for-profit utilities, and rural water and wastewater districts. They serve a number of communities in Missouri and Western Kentucky and two correctional facilities in Tennessee. Romo is based in Union City where they have a division office.
Drew Watson, business services specialist from Tennessee American Water was present. Watson and a colleague made a presentation to the board last fall during a meeting. Tennessee American Water is based out of Chattanooga and is interested in purchasing Trezevant’s water and sewer system.
Mr. Mike Miller, Mr. Justin Kersey, and Mr. Steve Lubertozzi were present representing Utilities Inc. who were also interested in purchasing the water and sewer system. They are based in East Tennessee.
