Rico board approves letters supporting FY2026 congressional request and Geothermal Coalition Phase 3 grant
Summary
The board approved a letter for a FY2026 congressionally directed spending request (with wording change about well water) and a letter supporting the Rico Geothermal Coalition Phase 3 grant; both motions passed 6-0.
The board approved two letters of support on March 19. Trustees voted 6‑0 to authorize the mayor to sign a letter supporting the town's FY2026 congressionally directed spending request, with language adjusted to omit a statement about whether support was conditional regarding well water. The motion passed on a roll‑call vote with all six trustees voting yes.
Separately the board approved a letter of support for the Rico Geothermal Coalition Phase 3 grant request. Teal Stetson‑Lee summarized the geothermal request and the board moved to approve the drafted letter ahead of the March deadline; that motion also passed unanimously, 6‑0.
Both letters will be signed and submitted per the board's direction; the FY2026 letter includes the mayor's signature with the agreed wording exception about well‑water conditions.
