Depew board authorizes WIFA grant application for Sewer Phase 10
Summary
Trustees authorized Municipal Solutions Inc. to prepare a WIFA grant application to the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation for the Village’s Sewer Phase 10 project and authorized the mayor to execute application documents immediately.
The Village Board of Trustees authorized on July 13 the preparation and submission of a WIFA grant application for the Sewer Phase 10 Improvement Project.
The resolution, moved and seconded and approved on roll call, authorizes Municipal Solutions Inc. to prepare the application for WIFA funds from the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation and gives the mayor authority to execute the application and any required supporting documents. Trustees noted affordability is a significant concern and cited an engineering report titled "Phase 10 sanitary sewer evaluation survey and corrective action plan" recommending the project to improve wastewater quality and protect public health.
The resolution takes effect immediately; trustees also approved an amendment to the Phase 10 contract with Municipal Solutions Inc. to facilitate design and project work. The board asked staff to advance the application and return with any required procurement or matching-fund details.
No specific grant amount or detailed budget was discussed during the meeting; the board emphasized resident affordability and compliance as priorities for project planning.
