The City of Walled Lake will still have available funding in the year 2003 of $24,028.43. Funds for 2003 become available on October V tof 2002. All money from the Environmental Infrastructure Fund must be allocated towards a project(s) by the year 2004. Oakland County has not yet determined a deadline when the funds must be spent. The process for requesting the funding is as follows: 1. The City must submit a letter to the County stating which funding years the City is requesting to be released, haw much money is being requested and for what project(s). Along with a suppoiting council resolution. 2. The request is forwarded to the Oakland County Board of Commissioners for approval and appropriation.

The Downtown Development Authority is finalizing plans for construction of a Wellsboro connector street (Administration Drive) onto West Maple Road.

This enhancement to the water system would allow future water service and fire protection along West Maple Road. The City's Engineering Consultants (Tetra Tech MPS) has estimated that the water main construction will cost approximately $85,000.00. This includes installing 1400 feet of new 12-inch water main, new fire hydrants, engineering fees, testing fees, and a 5% contingency.
