Teutopolis Village Board Agrees to Seek Grant Funds for Water Line Work

Teutopolis village board members have agreed to seek grant funds for infrastructure improvements.

The plan is to replace cast iron water lines in a large part of the village. The Village is seeking $750,000 in grant monies, with the pledge to cover 25% of the project cost, about $200,000 in local funds.

The Board also appropriated $60,000 in motor fuel tax funds to replace a box culvert on Oak Street and for related work on the street. 

Board members also passed a fiscal year appropriations ordinance for the coming year. The measure totals $6,503,800, about the same as last year other than accounting for the grant funds being sought.
