Purpose of the Bill

The purpose of this bill is to extend the timeframe for using funds appropriated for improvements to wastewater treatment infrastructure in the Western Lake Superior Sanitary District.

Main Provisions

• Grant Extension: The bill extends the expiration date of a previous appropriation, allowing the Western Lake Superior Sanitary District to continue accessing funding until December 31, 2029.
• Project Scope: The funding is specifically designated for designing, constructing, and rehabilitating four secondary clarifiers within the district's wastewater treatment system.

Significant Changes to Existing Law

• The bill modifies an earlier law by extending the authorization and appropriation period for the bond sale proceeds from the initially designated schedule to a new expiration date at the end of 2029. This change gives the sanitary district more time to complete the clarifier project.
