Isanti accepts reimbursement grant to seal five wells in Disma area
Summary
Council confirmed acceptance of a reimbursement grant to seal five wells in the Disma area, with staff stating work will begin immediately to meet year-end weather and reimbursement deadlines.
During the consent-agenda discussion, staff told the council that the city had previously applied for and been awarded a reimbursement grant to seal five wells in the Disma area. Staff explained the award was discussed with council or committee last year, that transition of staff led to a delay in processing, and that current staff could not find a resolution documenting council acceptance during the past year — prompting presentation on the consent agenda to secure formal approval.
Staff said the grant is reimbursement-based, that quotes obtained by Finance Director Becker are below the grant value, and that wells would be sealed by the end of the year to meet weather and grant deadlines. Council approved the consent agenda and staff said work is scheduled to begin immediately once approvals were in place.
No specific dollar amounts for the grant were stated in the meeting transcript and staff said that the grant will reimburse 100% of eligible expenses as incurred.
The council approved the consent agenda, authorizing staff to proceed with procurement and project start-up to complete sealing before winter conditions restrict work.
