Board reviews invoices and grant payments for Village of Coal water-meter project; invoice total requested $139,522.55
Summary
County staff presented grant-related invoices for the Village of Coal water-meter project, asking the board to approve $139,522.55 to cover Midwest Meter and engineering invoices; staff said the village is now in good compliance and the project will save residents money.
County staff asked the board to approve grant-funded invoice payments tied to the Village of Coal water-meter project. Staff said the village had earlier been noncompliant with audit requirements but had brought its records into compliance and that project work had proceeded.
The invoices presented included $116,007.56 from Midwest Meter for initial meter installations and $22,766.25 from PSC Engineering, for a total request of $139,522.55. Staff said Midwest Meter had completed the first round of installs and the engineering firm provided invoiced services tied to the grant project. The county’s grant portal records, staff said, show the village in good standing for federal and state requirements; the village’s current fiscal-year audit remains outstanding but staff characterized overall compliance as adequate to move these payments forward.
Commissioners expressed support for the village’s progress, and staff indicated the project will reduce residents’ costs and improve service monitoring. The board did not record a detailed roll-call vote in the transcript excerpt provided but staff signed relevant documents and indicated they would proceed with processing the invoices.
No additional conditions were recorded on the invoice payments in the meeting discussion.
