Replacement Underway On Nearly $200K Sewage Lift Station Damaged In Wreck

August 29, 2011

A six figure insurance settlement is paying to replace a sewage lift station and electric generator that were totaled in a December 2010 wreck on Highway 29 in Century.

The Great Western Casualty Company settled with the town for $190,250.51. That’s “every penny” of the town’s cost for repairs, according to Mayor Freddie McCall. The new lift station and generator are being installed this week on Highway 29 at Jackson Street.

The truck driver, Freddie Pelzer, 67, of Douglasville, Georgia, was not injured in the crash. He was charged with careless driving by the Florida Highway Patrol.

    Freddy Pelzer never paid his traffic ticket. It went to collections.

    If you see Freddy, remind him of his outstanding ticket please.
