The water-system grant application could support major infrastructure improvements, but funding has not yet been awarded; applications are due July 30, with decisions expected in late October or November. The airport resolution moves the city closer to accessing previously awarded funding, while the housing agreements provide city-owned lots for $1 with construction deadlines after closing. The approved housing terms require plans within 30 days, a concrete slab within three months, and a completed home within nine months.
