Funding Source: Staff is recommending that the city apply for $113,097.00 in Grant money to install chimney seals on 119 manholes. Per the Grant requirement, the city's match would 50% or $56,548.00. The city's match would come from Enterprise Fund 9602 (sewer utility). MCES I/I Grant -reimbursements cannot be calculated/distributed prior to March 2023. Because MCES uses an end grant agreement, they won't calculate (or know) final reimbursement amounts until the end of the program. As with previous I/I grant programs, MCES expects to have more eligible costs than available funds, and thus they will use a weighted average distribution for their Part 2 funding calculation. Because of this process, they won't be able to calculate final reimbursements until they have everyone's paperwork at the end of the program. By using an end grant agreement MCES can ensure that all funds are dispersed. One additional thing to note is that the end grant program offers more flexibility than the construction grant program. With the end grant program communities have the flexibility to complete more or less work than they initially listed in their application.
