Council authorized acceptance of a $1,000,000 U.S. EPA grant to reimburse costs for the WALKS water meter replacement Phase 1 project that was recently completed; staff said the award reimburses costs already incurred in Phase 1.
Council approved a resolution authorizing the city manager to accept a $1,000,000 grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to reimburse costs for the phase‑1 WALKS water meter replacement project, which the city completed recently.
Staff said the city had been aware of the opportunity and that the grant will reimburse expenditures already incurred for Phase 1. Tyler Huffman and Ken Arnold were present for questions; one resident who lives in the WALKS asked about property damage and reported some issues during the project, which staff said could be discussed separately after the meeting.
The resolution to accept the EPA grant was approved as part of a block vote.
