Council approved a professional services agreement with McMahon Engineering for a feasibility study on extending city water service to the Grande Cheese plant in the Town of Chilton, with costs reimbursed by Grande. The study will assess whether the city system can support the plant’s potential growth without harming current or future city needs. If feasible, future infrastructure, engineering, and service agreements would be required, creating a significant utility expansion project that engineering, construction, and financing firms can monitor.

Grande will reimburse the city for the study via a drafted agreement approved by legal counsel and Grande.
