Water Sector Commission's recommendations for $2.19 million in additional funding approved by JLCB
Summary
The JLCB approved three corrections/additional funding items from the Water Sector Commission totaling $2,194,066 for ongoing water projects that exceeded 5% of original grant awards.
The Joint Legislative Committee on the Budget approved the Water Sector Commission's recommendation to allocate an additional $2,194,066 in funding for three ongoing water projects after the commission met April 29.
Representative Zirane reported the commission approved "a total of $2,194,066 in additional water sector funding for 3 ongoing water projects," and moved to include all three items for a global vote. The items were described in a letter included in committee packets; Representative Zirane named the specific projects as Greenbrier Prairie Bass Water System, Point Chantilly Water System (referred to in the packet), and Southeast Waterworks District No. 2 and moved approval of the commission recommendations. Representative Raine moved the item on the committee floor and the motion carried with no opposition.
Because the supplemental amounts exceeded 5% of original grant awards, the commission required JLCB approval; the committee recorded no opposition to the approvals. Representative Zirane offered to answer questions and noted the funding corrections and additional allotments were documented in the meeting packet letters.
