application ranked high but due to limited funding, Ecology staff advised Mid -Columbia <br />to partner with a local jurisdiction that would serve as the project sponsor of the grant. <br />This arrangement will allow the Department of Ecology to support the proposed work <br />under a larger Ecology funding source, Centennial Clean Water Fund, which is open to <br />municipalities. The grant agreement will be for $208,441. <br />DISCUSSION: <br />Kittitas County Public Works has the experience and capacity to administer the Ecology <br />grant. The work funded by the grant would help advance the Flood Control Zone District <br />Capital Program, both by ensuring success of the 2020 project and by helping to identify <br />an additional flood alleviation and habitat restoration project. Collaborative efforts such <br />as this one leverage resources to advance the Flood Control Zone District work program. <br />FISCAL IMPACTS: <br />Staff time required to administer the grant will be re-imbursed by the funding source. <br />This funding agreement does not require match. <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />Exhibit 1: Draft Memorandum of Agreement <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />PUBLIC WORKS BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIO- ERS WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />
