Council discusses pulled‑forward low‑zone tank expansion and grant strategy
Summary
Staff said the low‑zone tank expansion (previously in Phase 2) was pulled forward and they are pursuing a grant; the cost has risen from earlier estimates and council asked about site elevation and grant viability before committing additional local funds.
Council members discussed that a low‑zone tank expansion — previously listed in Phase 2 — was pulled forward into nearer-term planning and that staff are pursuing grant funding to cover much of that cost. Staff presented an elevation band suitable for the tank near the Stake Center and said grant pursuit is underway.
"So the low zone tank expansion, Shane is working on, getting a grant for that one," a council member said while staff confirmed the location and that added storage is shown as a build‑out improvement. The earlier amount discussed in 2021 (~$1.4 million) had been updated on current slides to roughly $4.9 million.
Council members agreed a successful grant would change the city's funding calculus and asked staff to continue seeking outside funds while returning with contingency plans if the grant does not materialize.
