After 42 years, Claude Philippon has stepped down as trustee for the Brunswick & Topsham Water District. Claude’s service spanned 5 decades that saw significant growth and change. Through the work of the Board and four Superintendents Claude helped the District navigate four significant treatment plant overhauls, along with companion or replacement wells at all of the District sources. When he started the District’s total revenues were just over a million dollars with 70 miles of mains. Today the District revenues stand at just over six million dollars and 120 miles of mains, with increasing complex treatment processes at the District’s three stations. He served as President of the Board nine times. The District and community greatly appreciate Claude’s years of service.
