3. NEW BUSINESS
A. The Board along with Attorney Douglas, Mr. Rafferty and Ms. Orth discussed various sections
of the draft Asset Purchase Agreement between the Greenville Sanitary Authority and Aqua
Pennsylvania Wastewater, Inc. Attorney Douglas asked for clarification on several sections
that were included and ones that were not included that are typical to the transfer of real estate.
There were also brief discussions regarding which vehicles would be transferred and which
ones would not, along with the Town subdividing and retaining a piece of property located
outside the fenced area of the Treatment Plant. This may require some additional right of way
access being drafted and incorporated. There were discussions regarding the current right of
way document availability along with where what the Town constitutes as the lateral. Mr.
Rafferty has asked that an Ordinance be passed changing the property owner’s lateral
responsibility from the connection at the main to the curb line. Mr. Rafferty also discussed the
Town passing an Ordinance addressing the Fats, Oils & Greases issues if there is not one
already adopted. Mr. Urey announced that he had made contact with ScottMadden, Inc. in
regard to conducting the required valuation study and report and to obtain a quote, but he had
not heard back from them yet. Discussions were held regarding who is responsible for payment
for the original valuation report that had been completed by KLH prior to Aqua presenting the
Board with an offer. That valuation was originally paid for by Aqua, but PAPUC requires that

this valuation be split between the buyer and the seller. There were discussions regarding how
that would be addressed so that both parties have paid their appropriate fees.
It was discussed what the next step would be in the process. The list of assets that will be
included and/or excluded from the transfer will need to be created and added as an exhibit. The
Asset Purchase Agreement will need to be updated with the changes and then adopted. The
subdivisions can be completed after the APA has been acted upon. The next meeting is
scheduled for January 26, 2023, and that should be a reasonable amount of time to have those
items ready. The ordinances addressing the lateral ownership change and the Fats, Oils and
Greases will need to be completed and adopted by February 2023.
