Pine Mountain seeks shovel-ready plan to pursue water and sewer grant
Summary
Mayor Mullins asked the council to place on the May agenda a request for Precision Planning to prepare a shovel-ready plan so the town can apply for a grant to replace water and sewer lines near Eatz and the grocery store, First Peoples Bank, and Askew Park.
Mayor Mullins asked the Pine Mountain council to request Precision Planning prepare a shovel-ready plan so the town can apply for a grant to replace water and sewer lines.
A shovel-ready plan is necessary, the mayor said, to make the town’s infrastructure projects eligible for grant funding. The council discussed targeting replacements for lines near Eatz and the grocery store, near First Peoples Bank and near Askew Park. Mayor Mullins asked that the item be placed on the May council agenda so staff or a consultant can begin preparing the application and engineering work.
The plan would document project scope and site details required by many grant programs; no funding source was named beyond the general intent to apply for a grant. No formal contract award or vote occurred at the work session; the mayor requested that Precision Planning be engaged to prepare the plan and the grant application for council consideration in May.
Next steps: the council will consider the formal scope and possible contract with Precision Planning at its May meeting, and any grant application would be subject to approval by the full council.
