The Pella City Council reviewed finances for the long term water supply plan at their meeting this week.

City of Pella Finance Director Corey Goodenow says the Council authorized an additional $1 million for the bond issuance to ensure they had enough financing available. They also discussed bids and approved the design for the $2.3 million Jordan Well component, which is the first of three phases in the plan. Goodenow says the city postponed the decision of awarding a contract for work to begin on that first component until the first meeting in November as they wait for official permits and approval from the DNR.
