Committee awards $21,000 TMDL implementation plan contract to Strand under 50/50 grant

The committee approved awarding the TMDL (total maximum daily load) implementation plan contract to Strand for the grant-funded scope of $21,000. Staff said the city had applied for a 50/50 urban nonpoint source grant to update its TMDL implementation plan and received two proposals with similar costs and scopes; staff recommended Strand based on regional experience and fewer follow-up questions needed.
