IX. COUNCIL ACTION ITEMS
A. CONSIDERATION OF A DRINKING WATER STATE REVOLVING
FUND (DWSRF) LOAN AGREEMENT WITH THE WYOMING STATE
LOAN AND INVESTMENT BOARD
In February, the City Council passed a resolution authorizing the
submission of an application to the State Loan and Investment Board
for a loan through the State Revolving Fund for the Teton Tank
Rehabilitation Project. The City's application was approved by the State
Loan and Investment Board (SLIB) at their June 8, 2026, board
meeting. The $3,000,000 loan would be used to cover engineering and
construction costs associated with the rehabilitation of Teton Tank, a
1,000,000-gallon water tank located on the south side of Green River.
This project addresses findings from the 2025 inspection report which
revealed significant corrosion on the interior and exterior of the tank.
The loan will be paid back using increased user fees in accordance
with the 2025 Rate Design Study. The 2025 Rate Design Study
accounts for repayment of this loan.
Suggested Motion: I move to approve the DWSRF Loan Agreement
with the Wyoming State Loan and Investment Board, in the amount of
$3,000,000 for the Teton Tank Rehabilitation Project and authorize the
Mayor to sign the Loan Agreement and pertinent documents.
