Flint

A lot of complaints about Natasha these days. Of course, I have a lot of complaints about myself and this Flint thing. If I had acted more quickly on some of my minister's complaints we at least would have had a more robust discussion. Do we have a copy of the Veolia conclusions somewhere? xxxEND_PAGE:treasury01_b35_5648_6098_143 Dempkowski, Angela (T reasury)

Rick Snyder today awarded Flint $2 million in grants for water system infrastructure improvements, part of an overall $8 million plan to help cities through the Financially Distressed Cities, Villages, and Townships Grant Program. Flint is among six municipalities receiving grants through the program. The city will use the funding to detect leaks in its water lines and replace its Water Pollution Control Facility Incinerator. “There are opportunities for the state government to assist Flint city leaders as they address issues related to the city’s water system,” Snyder said. “These grants will help recovering cities improve public services and infrastructure, improving the quality of life for ail residents.” The grants to Flint were announced today at the Haskell Community Center by Harvey Hollins, director of the state’s Office of Urban Initiatives and Wayne Workman, the state’s deputy treasurer. They were joined by Dan Wyant, director of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, Flint Emergency Manager Jerry Ambrose, Mayor Dayne Walling, state Senate Minority Leader Jim Ananich, state Reps. Sheldon Neeley and Phil Phelps. Flint was awarded $900,000 to aliow the city to hire a contractor to perform a leak detection survey of the city water lines. The city will receive a map of leak locations and an assessment of leak severity, allowing the city to prioritize leak repair. The project also covers the expense of conducting a water pipe line wall thickness condition assessment on a portion of the city’s pipes. The assessment will guide the city’s water main replacement program. The city also was awarded $1.1 million to shut down its current Water Pollution Control Facility incinerator and replace it with new facilities which will allow for the disposal of waste in landfills. The existing facilities are not up to federal Environmental Protection Agency standards. xxxEND_PAGE:treasury01_b37_6553_6782_171 Municipalities are eligible for the grants of they are experiencing one or more conditions indicative of “probable financial stress,” as defined by Public Act 436 of 2012, the Local Financial Stability and Choice Act.
