BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
In March 2021, Congress adopted the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), which included $65 billion in
recovery funds intended to provide support to state, local and tribal governments in responding to the
impact of COVID-19 and in their efforts to COVID-19 in their communities, residents and businesses.
The Wright County Board of Commissioners allocated $4 million of it’s allocated funding to a water/sewer
grant program for cities within Wright County. In January 2022, City staff submitted an application for grant
funding for the West WWTF expansion project in the amount of $737,311, which was the maximum
amount of funding available to the City of Otsego.
City staff was notified on March 10, 2022 that the County Board had approved the City’s application for
funding.
The County has provided a Grant Agreement, which outlines the terms and conditions of the grant. The
requirements included in the Grant Agreement are familiar to City staff, and consistent with other
requirements of Federal funding projects such as the East WWTF Biosolids building and the West WWTF
expansion projects.
The Grant Agreement has been reviewed by City staff and the City Attorney, with recommendation for City
Council approval and authorization for staff to execute said agreement.

Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure
ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, Databank OBO Wright County (we, us or Company) may be required by law
to provide to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and
conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign
system. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this
information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and Signature
Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement by selecting the check-box next to ‘I agree to
use electronic records and signatures’ before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the DocuSign
system.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send
to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you
elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time
(usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to
send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a
$0.00 per-page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the
procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. Further, you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to
receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents
from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
