Aurelia council votes to advance new water tower and well; SRF application to be filed
Summary
The Aurelia City Council unanimously approved moving forward with a new water tower and a new well and directed ISG to submit a State Revolving Fund Intended Use Plan application on Sept. 2 to determine whether a requirement labeled "BABA" will apply.
Mayor Pro-Tem Roman Redig called a special session of the Aurelia City Council to order at 5:30 p.m. on Aug. 19, 2025, and the council voted unanimously to advance plans for a new water tower and a new well.
The council approved a motion by Council Member Fassler, seconded by Council Member Bruce, directing ISG to submit a State Revolving Fund Intended Use Plan (SRF IUP) application on Sept. 2, 2025, to determine whether a condition identified in the record as “BABA” will be required for the project. The motion passed on a 5-0 roll call vote with Council Members Nelson, Johnson, Redig, Bruce and Fassler voting “aye.”
The SRF IUP filing was presented to the council as the next procedural step to clarify funding requirements and any conditions tied to state or federal financing. The transcript records the council’s instruction to have ISG submit the SRF IUP on the specified date; the record does not define the acronym or term “BABA,” which was mentioned as a potential requirement.
Council members did not record an amendment to the motion; the approved action directs staff and the named firm, ISG, to pursue the SRF IUP process and continue with project planning. The meeting adjourned at 6:57 p.m.
Next steps noted in the record: ISG to file the SRF IUP on Sept. 2, 2025, after which the council can be expected to receive additional information about any required conditions and potential funding implications.
