Mayor: $750,000 grant approved for Covington wastewater treatment plant update
Summary
Mayor Crain announced at the Feb. 3 Covington council meeting that a $750,000 grant for a wastewater treatment plant update has been approved and should arrive next week; minutes give no timeline or vendor details for the project.
Mayor Crain told the Covington City Council on Feb. 3 that the city has been awarded a $750,000 grant intended for an update to the wastewater treatment plant and that the funds are expected to arrive the following week.
The minutes record the announcement but provide no further detail about project scope, matching requirements, procurement plans, a schedule or which department will manage the work.
The grant—if received—would supply significant funding for a capital upgrade to a municipal utility. The council did not record any formal motion or vote related to allocating or accepting the grant funds in the minutes; no contract awards or project timelines were entered into the record at this meeting.
Next steps: The minutes do not list a project manager, timeline, budget allocation, or required approvals for spending the grant. Council and staff will need to clarify whether the River Group garage design or other capital plans are related to the wastewater project; the minutes do not connect those items.
