Analyzing and having recommendations made through <br /> this formal study allows us future opportunities to qualify for clean water type grants to complete the <br /> improvements. <br /> The study further shows our continued progress toward meeting the post construction stormwater <br /> management requirement (Minimum Control Measure 5) of our MS4 permit. <br /> Financial Impact <br /> The total cost for the study as estimated by the SWCD is $13,750. The city share of the cost will be up to <br /> $2,750. The SWCD has secured the remaining funding through a state grant. <br /> Attachments <br /> ■ Memorandum of Understanding <br /> P a w E A E U s r <br /> Template Updated 4/14 INIM UREI <br />
