North Logan advances water projects and City Center planning; new tank construction progressing, grant to connect reservoirs secured

Summary

City staff reported that construction on a new water tank is progressing (fourth wall section nearly complete) and that a state grant will fund a new water line to connect reservoirs for redundancy; City Center planning continues with a RAPZ grant application submitted and decisions expected in April.

City staff updated the North Logan City Council on water capital projects and City Center planning at the March 18 meeting.

Jordan Oldham reported that the new water tank construction is progressing and that the fourth wall section is expected to be near completion by the end of the month; the roof portion remains and is expected to take several months. Oldham said the city received a state grant for a new water line that will connect multiple reservoirs to improve redundancy, pressure and supply; additional pipeline work is expected to begin within weeks with the goal of having the system operational by mid-to-late summer.

Alan Luce provided an update on City Center planning, saying staff and design interns are collaborating to reduce costs, some work may be completed in-house given limited parks staffing, and a RAPZ grant application has been submitted with award decisions expected in April. The council discussed staffing constraints and potential timelines but did not approve new contracts or expenditures at the March 18 meeting.

Staff said more detailed schedules and grant award information will be provided as available.
