Council approves targeted brownfield assessment application for former power plant
Summary
As part of the consent calendar, the council authorized submission of a Section 128(A) Targeted Brownfield Assessment application to evaluate environmental conditions at the former power plant property; City Manager Cox described it as an environmental assessment of the building.
The Alliance City Council approved Resolution No. 26-42 authorizing the City Manager to sign and submit a Section 128(A) Targeted Brownfield Assessment application for the former power plant property. The action was adopted on the consent calendar without a separate roll-call on the resolution itself; the consent motion was made by Councilman Hitchcock and seconded by Vice Mayor Mashburn and carried unanimously among members present.
When Councilman Turman requested additional information about the application, City Manager Cox explained the request is "just an environmental assessment of the old power plant building." The assessment is intended to evaluate potential contamination and determine whether further investigation or remediation is warranted before future redevelopment or sale of the property.
The resolution authorizes the City Manager to submit the application and supporting materials on behalf of the City. The council did not set a timeline in the meeting minutes; staff will proceed with the application process under the authority granted in the resolution.
