Watertown Mayor Jeffrey Smith tipped his hand this week when discussing his method of reaching consensus on the City Council. He called council members last month to ask what they thought of a proposal to give $445,000 to Hospice of Jefferson County in Watertown, according to a story published Tuesday by the Watertown Daily Times. The organization is expanding its Gotham Street facility by four beds (a $2.37 million project), and it wants to use this money to enhance its ventilation system. This would reduce the likelihood of spreading the novel coronavirus through the building and infecting patients. The money would come from the Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Fund, part of the more than $22 million the city received through the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 passed by Congress earlier this year. The proposal offered by Hospice of Jefferson County is an example of what federal legislators had in mind when they approved this funding.
