Summary

City staff secured approval to hire Fulton and Mink Incorporated (proposal not to exceed $46,200) to update Marshall’s five‑year‑old stormwater model, run scenarios and identify priority project locations; the study does not commit the city to construction.

The Marshall City Council approved a proposal for a stormwater model update and scenario analysis from Fulton and Mink Incorporated, with a not-to-exceed cost of $46,200.

Jason Anderson, Director of Public Works and City Engineer, said city staff requested the proposal to update a stormwater model that is about five years old, incorporate changes from recent construction and run scenarios to test flood and drainage behavior after recent high-rain events. Anderson said the study will help identify cost‑benefit and prioritize projects but "commits us to no projects" and that findings will be brought back to the PAT committee and council for consideration.

Councilmember Craig moved approval and the council passed the motion. Several councilmembers confirmed the project had been reviewed informally by the PIT committee and that staff had circulated detailed information to committee members prior to the council meeting.

The study will begin subject to the approved not‑to‑exceed amount and is intended to provide a technical basis for possible future capital projects; no construction contracts were awarded at the meeting.
