Concord requests "shovel ready" project money

Approval of a resolution requesting Federal stimulus money for specified shovel ready water and wastewater projects.

City Council adopted a resolution to request State grant assistance for water and wastewater projects. In response to the anticipated national economic recovery funding, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) is accepting supplemental applications for projects that are or can be shovel ready within approximately 6 months of federal enactment of the bill. The Department has not yet described the final details of the procedures that will be followed, but it is clear that if a project is not on the State's priority list then it will not be eligible for any stimulus money.
