Sevier County water committee approves resolution to seek CDBG funds for waterline extension
Summary
The Sevier County Water Committee voted unanimously March 7 to approve Resolution 2024-03-XX, authorizing an application to the Community Development Block Grant program to fund a waterline extension estimated to affect roughly 45 homes; the application is due April 26, 2024.
The Sevier County Board of Commissioners Water Committee on March 7 voted unanimously to approve Resolution 2024-03-XX, authorizing an application to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program for waterline extension projects.
Director Brent Shults presented the resolution and explained the county’s intent to apply for CDBG funding. Evan Sanders, participating by Zoom, outlined the CDBG scoring process and the schedule: applications are due April 26, 2024, and selected projects are expected to be announced in late 2024. Director Shults and Robert Campbell told the committee there are "roughly 45 homes that would be impacted by the proposed project."
Commissioner Ronnie Whaley moved to accept the resolution and forward it to the Budget Committee; Commissioner Scott Catlett seconded. The motion passed unanimously. The committee did not record roll-call votes by name in the minutes beyond noting unanimous approval.
Next steps identified by the committee include preparing and submitting the CDBG application by the April 26 deadline and referral of the approved resolution to the Budget Committee for review of any fiscal or matching requirements. The committee did not adopt a funding commitment at the meeting; any county match or budget implications will be considered by the Budget Committee.
