IDA reports $500,000 county funding for 500,000‑gallon Manheim water tank; design nearly complete
Summary
Herkimer County IDA reported a $500,000 county drawdown and additional grant prospects for a ground‑based 500,000‑gallon water tank at Manheim Business Park; design is about 90% complete and moving to the health department.
Herkimer County Industrial Development Agency staff reported the agency has secured a $500,000 county allocation toward construction of a ground‑based 500,000‑gallon water tank for the Manheim Business Park and that design work is roughly 90% complete.
Agency staff said the project will support the village, nearby town and expected growth in that part of the county. The speaker said the tank design will move to the health department for review and that the IDA has drawn down county funds while additional grant monies are expected to follow. The tank was described as a 500,000‑gallon ground‑based structure sited within Manheim Business Park.
Staff also described project steps: completion of design, permitting reviews (including the health department), and planned additional grant drawdowns to cover parts of the construction. No final construction contract award or vendor was named in the discussion.
Ending: Staff said the design and permitting work will continue and that grant drawdowns will be presented in future IDA financial reports.
