The land was the site of an Exxon Gas facility and is currently being remediated by owner the Davis Company. “We need this,” Hans Detweiler of Jupiter told the members. “Like all other utility projects, it has to connect to something and the grid is already strong at the location.” Approval helps them in their approval process with the state Dept. of Public Utilities and other agencies, but the mayor doesn’t seem to be in agreement with the project, at least not yet, as related by Van Campen, Councillor-at-Large Stephanie Smith and Ward 1 Councillor Wayne Matewsky. “We don’t know where the Administration stands,” Smith admitted. She thinks representatives for the City of Everett should be present during the permitting process Trimount/Jupiter is pursuing. “If the Mayor isn’t on board with this, we have to consider that,” Matewsky feels. “Can we invite someone from the Administration to speak on this?” Ward 4 Councillor Holly Garcia asked. “Let’s vote on what we want,” Ward 6 Councillor Peter Pietrantonio said before the unanimous vote of approval. “This is a technology Everett desperately needs. If the Administration doesn’t want it, that’s their call. They don’t tell us anything anyway.” ELIMINATION | SEE PAGE 7
