PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING FOR PROPOSED PROJECT PLAN

 

The City of Imlay City will hold a public meeting for the purpose of receiving comments from interested persons for the proposed project plan included in the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) program and designate an Authorized Project Representative.

The purpose of the CWSRF project is to make improvements to the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant. Recommended improvements include the following:

  • Preliminary treatment upgrades to replace equipment and improve processes.
  • Secondary treatment upgrades to replace equipment and improve efficiency.
  • Tertiary treatment improvements to replace the existing filtration system.
  • Process control improvements to optimize processes and reduce energy use.
  • Improvements to upgrade electrical systems, improve safety, and repair infrastructure.

Expected impacts of the proposed project include improved treatment efficiency and increased reliability of the wastewater treatment plant. Short-term construction related impacts include noise and dust during construction activities as well as minor traffic disturbances.

The City is actively pursuing grant funding and subsidized interest loans to finance the proposed project. Impacts on user costs will vary depending on financing terms, grant funding, other sources of funding, community rate structure, and final project scope.

A copy of the project plan for the CWSRF project is available for review at the following location: City of Imlay City, City Hall; 150 North Main Street, Imlay City, MI 48444 during regular business hours and online at the City of Imlay City website: https://www.imlay-docs.9.claritynode.com.

Proud to be a Tree City USA Community

The Tree City USA program has been greening up cities and towns across America since 1976. It is a nationwide movement that provides the framework necessary for communities to manage and expand their public trees.

Imlay City is one of 3,400 communities that has made the commitment to becoming a Tree City USA. The City has achieved Tree City USA status by meeting four core standards of sound urban forestry management: Maintaining a tree board or department, having a community tree ordinance, spending at least $2 per capita on urban forestry and celebrating Arbor Day.
