Spencer Phone: 360.473.5283 SUMMARY: The city published a request for qualifications in August to find a partner consultant to assist the city in successfully obtaining US EPA brownfields assessment grants and area-wide planning grants. The funding would be used citywide. The total funding that the city may receive if we are successful in obtaining these grants could be as high as $600,000. There is no local match for this funding. We have reviewed the proposals submitted, and selected a firm that has proposed a no-cost option for the city. The firm will, on behalf of the city, submit for the US EPA funding and this will cost the City nothing. If the city is successful in obtaining funding as a result of the consultant's submittal we will formally contract with the firm to administer the grant work program. This is a method that has been successfully carried out in other communities. There is no contract that the City Council has to authorize at this time. DCD will contract with the consulting firm to prepare the US EPA grant submittals this year. If the city is successful in obtaining the grant funding, staff will bring forward a contract for the City Council to authorize with the consultant in order to carry out the work established in the EPA grant.
