Item No. 15-006
Date: November 10, 2014
Item/Subject: Resolve, Appropriating a $150,000 Non -point Source Pollution Grant Fund for
Capehart Brook Restoration, Phase II
Responsible Department: Finance
Commentary: In July 2014, the Council authorized application for and acceptance of Federal
Section 319 grant funds passed through the Maine Department of Environmental Protection for
projects within Capehart stream.
The attached Resolve would appropriate $150,000 in grants funds for the Capehart Brook
Restoration, Phase II. The primary goal of this project is to reduce and/or slow the volume of
water making its way to the stream, and the secondary goal is to filter out pollutants that may
be carried away with the rain water in this watershed.
These grant funds do require a 40% local match, which will be provided by in-kind labor
provided by volunteer groups, Public Works, Engineering, and the City's environmental
coordinator.
