single family residence, so creating a separate category with a greater cap per property would also provide more <br />incentive for commercial property owners to upgrade older, less efficient toilets. Thus, Staff is recommending that <br />the Water Efficiency Rebate Program be modified to include a separate, commercial/HOA category with a per <br />device rebate cap of $700 (device only, excludes sales tax and labor, in line with the current program) with a <br />cumulative cap of $1,400. <br />Funding Source: <br />Funding for the Water Efficiency Grant Program consists of three sources: $28,000 from the Water Efficiency <br />Grant from the Metropolitan Council, $9,340 from the City's Water Fund (this is equivalent to the required 25% <br />municipal contribution), and any rebate participant would cover the sales tax on the purchase of the device (thus <br />satisfying the requirement for the rebate participant to have a financial contribution in the program) plus any <br />amount that exceeds the per device cap. <br />Recommendation: <br />The EPB recommends amending the Water Efficiency Grant Program to create a separate rebate category <br />specifically for commercial/HOA properties. <br />Action: <br />Motion to adopt Resolution #21-118 Modifying the Water Efficiency Grant Program to include a separate <br />commercial/HOA rebate category. <br />Attachments <br />EPB Meeting Minutes Dated January 25, 2021 <br />Resolution #21-118 Modifying Water Efficiency Grant Program <br />Inbox <br />Tim Gladhill <br />Kurt Ulrich <br />Form Started By: Chris Anderson <br />Final Approval Date: 04/22/2021 <br />Reviewed By <br />Tim Gladhill <br />Kurt Ulrich <br />Form Review <br />Date <br />04/22/2021 12:23 PM <br />04/22/2021 02:56 PM <br />Started On: 04/19/2021 10: 5 8 AM <br />
