Nicholson Dr.
Brief Description: City Staff would like to discuss offering expanded water
service to residents who live on Nicholson Dr.
Attachments:
Mr. Sheridan stated that Nicholson Drive is the fifth area of the water expansion project and noted that the City
secured a $958,000 grant to be used towards this area. He stated that staff would reach out to the Nicholson
Drive residents, following the same approach used in previous areas, with hosting a public open house followed
by sending out petition forms. Mr. Sheridan then asked Council if they wished to match previous contributions
by offering the 25% towards the cost like the other areas plus the grant for a total City contribution of 47% or to
proceed with just the grant funding. He stated that if residents declined participation, the grant would be
redirected to the waterline installation along Hudson Drive. After a brief discussion, Council reached consensus
to offer only the grant, representing a 29% City contribution, and should the residents not approve the project
