Northfield sewer board identifies three infrastructure priorities and tentatively sets FY27 budget items. Chair Karen Boudreau led the Board of Sewer Commissioners through sludge-hauling and indirect-cost discussions, setting a tentative $52,080 sludge line item and a 10 percent increase in healthcare indirect costs. Chief Operator Isaac Golding flagged concerns about potential PFAS disposal fees.
