GRASS LAKE WATER ANAGEMENTN ORGANIZATION -JULY 23, 2009 9 <br />study. This project can be presented to the council as a capital improvement plan. <br />Root moved, Westerberg seconded a motion to accept the draft preliminary budget in the <br />amount of $148,700.00, as presented with the change that the funding for the water <br />management plan update be replaced by the Owasso UAA supplemental Fund. <br />Kelsey questioned how the management plan update would be funded.
