Interim Financing Planned For City Sewer Projects
Muscatine city officials consider interim financing to carry the first phase of the 1963 64 sanitary sewer program with bonds for the final phase tied to a new treatment plant. A $250 000 federal grant on Harbor Drive pumping station and interceptor lines will be held in escrow until the plant contract is awarded. Construction is planned to begin spring 1963 with completion by end of 1964, and annual maintenance costs could reach 50 000. The city will decide on a rental or tax approach to fund ongoing costs.
