Board authorizes EGLE $150,000 grant-match letter for Rugg Pond dam removal; MDNR $20,000 match noted
Summary
Administrator David Schaeffer presented MDNR and EGLE grant-match items for Rugg Pond Dam removal; the board authorized Chair Fisher to sign an EGLE $150,000 grant match letter and noted a $20,000 MDNR match previously approved.
Administrator David Schaeffer told the board the county has a $20,000 MDNR grant match for the Rugg Pond Dam removal project (G/L 101-746-962.100) and presented an EGLE $150,000 Grant Match Letter for board authorization. The board gave consensus authorization for Chair Kohn Fisher to sign the EGLE grant match letter; Schaeffer said more information on timing may be available by May.
Schaffer also noted discussion about the FAIR agreement and use of Civic Center space; the board indicated a preference to continue a five-year agreement as previously approved rather than a 99-year request and directed continued discussion with legal counsel and stakeholders.
