City of <br />Pequot <br />Lakes _ _ <br />AGENDA ITEM #9.4 <br />REPORT TO <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />Report Prepared by: Tim Houle, City Engineer <br />Date: February 3, 2014 <br />Sub_iect: Project Priority List (PPL) <br />Report: The PPL is a list put together by the MPCA for wastewater projects <br />around the State (the MN Dept. of Health has a similar PPL for water projects). <br />This PPL is looked at by most funding agencies when providing funding <br />assistance (low interest loans and grants). There is information and forms to fill <br />out. It costs us about $1,000 to submit. <br />We suggest the City get on the PPL with wastewater improvements related to the <br />proposed 4-lane Hwy 371 and the Facility Plan we are preparing. <br />While we will try and prepare this application on behalf of the City within our <br />Facility Plan efforts, our Facility Plan proposal was basically a 2004 proposal. <br />Thus, I hope the Council is okay with this additional scope and if we exceed our <br />original effort / dollars (Facility Plan was $33,600) by $1,000. <br />The deadline this year to submit an application to the PPL is on or before March <br />7. I know your next Council meeting is March 4, but that would be cutting it <br />extremely close to get approval that night and get this PPL application in by the <br />end of that week. Thus, that is why we are asking for approval at this February <br />City Council meeting. <br />Council Action Requested: Council motion authorizing the City Engineer to <br />submit a PPL application with wastewater improvements related to the proposed <br />4-lane Hwy 371 and the Facility Plan. <br />
