Commission approves deadline extensions and Church Point scope change
During its meeting, the Water Sector Commission approved multiple procedural requests: a one-month extension for Veil Platte to submit plans and specs, a three-month extension for Sunset to complete phase‑1 work and enable phase‑2 design, and a scope-change request from Church Point to use remaining grant funds to connect 40 homes on private wells.

Tracy Watts of the Division presented the three requests. Watts said Veil Platte needed an additional month due to weather delays and had previously received two five‑month extensions. Regarding Sunset, Watts said phase 1 needed to be further along before the phase 2 design could be completed and that phase 2 has a 12‑month construction timeframe; Sunset had received prior extensions of six months and five months and requested an additional three months to reach an October 31 deadline.

Representative Miller moved to approve the two extension requests and the motion passed without objection. For the Church Point request, Watts said this was not a request for additional money but a request to reallocate remaining grant funds to add 40 existing homes currently on private wells to the system. Representative Lacombe moved to approve the scope change and the motion passed without objection.

The commission recorded no abstentions or recorded votes for these procedural approvals; each motion was accepted on a voice vote with no objections. The meeting concluded after a call for public comment produced none and Senator Edmonds moved to adjourn; the motion passed.
