Mayor asks for support on water $$$
Email from Mayor Dean Bunkers:
“The City of Ocean Shores was notified on Monday, the 23rd, that we had been selected for stimulus funding assistance for improvements to the City’s proposed new water treatment plant by the Department of Health. The initial City request was for $5,800,000 and we were granted nearly $3,000,000. The City was ranked number 27 out of 347 applicants. In fact, we were the last project to receive funding from the available $38,500,000.
“ This initial funding list is only a draft and it is possible that we may not receive the funding or the priority list may change. The Department of Health is taking comments on the draft until Monday, April 6th. This is an opportunity for the citizens of Ocean Shores to show support for improving our drinking water. I am requesting that citizens support this funding opportunity by sending comments, stressing the importance of good drinking water to our local economy and to the greater Grays Harbor area, to:
Department of Health, Office of Drinking Water, ATTN: Kitty Weisman, POB 47822, Olympia, WA 98504-7822
Phone (360) 236-3116 FAX: (360) 236-2252 Email: kitty.weisman@doh.wa.gov
“ My recommendation is to send comments by email.
Sincerely, Dean Bunkers”
