MN Public Facilities Authority Clean Water Revolving Fund Application <br /> Tim Houle congratulated the City on being in the fundable range for the <br /> MN Public Facilities Authority Clean Water Revolving Fund Intended Use <br /> Plan in the amount of$1.35 million. This would be a low interest loan if <br /> the City needs it. Documents pertaining to this will be included in the <br /> WWTF row irrigation construction documents. <br /> Council Member Akerson questioned what the approximate interest rate <br /> could be on this loan. Tim Houle noted that it is usually about a point <br /> lower than if the City would bond for this project. <br /> 9.8.
