The Oskaloosa City Council is set to host a regular meeting tonight. On the agenda is an amendment the council will consider for the 2022 Wastewater Treatment Facility Plan, and a resolution that would approve the anti-degradation report for the Long-Term Wastewater Facility Plan. 

The council will also consider a resolution approving the CORE Downtown Improvement Grant Program; if approved, this would create a grant that will offer a reimbursement of up to $50,000 toward qualifying exterior improvements to existing buildings in the city, and all work would require a 50% owner match, except for architectural and engineering services, which would require a 20% owner match. Grant applications would be reviewed by a committee consisting of City Staff along with staff from the Mahaska Chamber and Oskaloosa Main Street. 

At the end of the agenda, the council will conduct the second reading of an ordinance adding Alternate Enforcement Action to the Oskaloosa Municipal Code. 

The meeting will start at 6pm in the Oskaloosa City Hall Council Chambers.
