City accepts $120,000 Department of Ecology stormwater grant
Summary
Arlington City Council accepted a $120,000 municipal stormwater capacity grant from the Washington Department of Ecology—an increase from prior typical allocations of $25,000 per year or $50,000 over two years—to support implementation related to the city's NPDES stormwater permit.
The Arlington City Council voted to accept a $120,000 municipal stormwater capacity grant from the Washington State Department of Ecology to support activities required by the city's NPDES stormwater permit.
Jim Kelly told council the city typically receives $25,000 per year (or $50,000 over a two-year cycle) from the Department of Ecology for stormwater capacity work and that "this year, they raised it up from 50,000 to a 120,000." He requested authority to accept the grant and authorize the mayor to sign the agreement.
A councilmember moved to accept the grant; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. The transcript captures an "Aye" and records "None heard" in opposition but does not provide a roll-call tally.
Staff will execute the grant agreement and proceed with the stormwater activities covered by the award.
