Subject:
Passthrough Funding Agreement with Scott Watershed Management Organization for Grant Funding.
Policy/Action Requested:

Adopt Resolution R2022-013 approving agreement for passthrough funding for de-icing equipment capital purchase.

Recommendation:
Adopt Resolution R2022-013.
Discussion:

Scott Watershed Management Organization (Scott WMO) received grant funding through the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) Watershed Based Funding grant program for chloride reduction equipment. The City of Shakopee partnered with the Scott WMO and identified the brine maker equipment purchase to receive passthrough grant funding (see attached CIP sheet). The brine maker is equipment to help reduce over-application of salt on roadways and reduce chloride pollution.

Budget Impact:
The anti-icing brine maker was authorized for purchase by the council in the amount of $66,336 on October 19, 2021. The grant for the project is $9,462.13 for de-icing equipment capital purchase and requires a minimum ten percent (10%) match. This grant amount will be applied to the project funding and offset the funding amount from the Equipment Internal Service Fund.
