The US Treasury has now finalized their guidance on lost revenue, which provides a flat amount for recovery by each city, which is well above CentervilleÓs allotment. If funds are allocated for lost revenue, they must simply be spent on general government expenses. Council has not made formal commitments yet. PUBLIC WORKS Snow Plow Season Council briefly discussed the Snow Plow Policy at their January 12, 2022 meeting and are looking for additional information to be provided by Administrator Statz and Public Works Director Palzer. STORMWATER/WETLAND Rice Creek Watershed District Erosion Control Inspection Partnership. The city kicked off its first few months of a new partnership with the Rice Creek Watershed District, earlier this summer. The agreement between the city and RCWD eliminates overlapping inspections on development sites, keeping development costs down. The watershed district supplies the inspections and the city pays for half of their costs. Recently, the city received its first invoice from the watershed and happily paid it in full! Both organizations are hopeful that this partnership can lead to more collaborative programs that cut government bureaucracy while still fulfilling the missions of our respective organizations. SEWER AND WATER Commercial Water Connection Fee Assistance As part of the cityÓs ongoing effort to help businesses through the pandemic, a new program was introduced, cutting connection fees for city water in half, for commercial properties. If you own a commercial property in Centerville that is not currently hooked to city water, and are interested in learning more, please call City Hall. The program is offered for a limited time only and is subject to conditions.
