MONROE - City employees will no longer be the ones to maintain and repair municipal wells under an agreement made by the Board of Public Works on Monday. A contract between Utility Service Group, which has locations throughout the United States, and the city allows for a 10-year deal in which USG will oversee maintenance and repairs of all five municipal wells. The city budgeted $124,000 for well maintenance for 2016, and under the agreement, the total amount for all five wells will be $120,000 annually.
