Regarding~

Cape Vincent's Old Water Tower

Many questions have been raised concerning the Old water tower.

Where did it go? Resale or scrap? Was its disposal part of the new water tower construction contract? Was it sold separately and if so, who got the money, village or town?

I have found a couple of answers to these questions.

The 35 year Old Cape water Tower was demolished and removed February 21 2008,
The Demolition of the old water tower was done by Pittsburg Tank & Tower Company. Elevated Division, Inc. Sebree, KY

At last, how hard was that? why couldn't the town have presented this info in response to Harry Landers repeated request.

Disgraceful that Mr. Landers never recieved a response to the question of the water tower. Thank you K....you listened and took the time to find out and answer the question, maybe you should be on the board.

K, was this bid and acceptance ever in any minutes of the board?
This is the reason we must continuing the videoing of all town meetings. The village should do this as well, lots of questions of past practices there.
