DISCUSSION
In 1985, County Service Area #17 – Cottonwood Sewer (CSA #17) was constructed. In 2015, the County executed a Settlement Agreement in which we agreed to make certain improvements to CSA #17. Environmental and engineering studies have since commenced. On August 16, 2016 the Board approved a Funding Reimbursement Resolution for a $6,425,000 project. Such a project would be eligible for a $6,000,000 Clean Water State Revolving Fund grant. This is roughly the cost of the proposed treatment upgrades. Two separate projects would be eligible for a total of $8,000,000. The additional funds would be used to improve the collection system. The proposed actions would facilitate two separate projects, instead of just one as previously envisioned. |
