The City of Monroe has been awarded a Transportation Growth Management (TGM) Grant to fund the development of a Riverside District Master Plan. The Riverside District Master Plan will allow Monroe to adequately plan and realize the community-generated vision to reorient the community towards the river and take advantage of its aesthetic, recreational, economic, and environmental opportunities. The space where the downtown, Long Tom River, and City Park intersect has been dubbed Monroe’s ‘Riverside District’ (See Map for context). The TGM Grant will allow Monroe to plan for synergistic land uses and transportation connections in this area to create a walk-able, vibrant, and sustainable district – enhancing resident’s quality of life and our economy.
On July 23rd, the City Council approved a $2.00 WATER rate increase that will take affect September 1, 2018 for all utility customers. The rate increase is due to unexpected costs associated with an increase in insurance rates, the requirement to produce a Water Management and Conservation Plan in order to become compliant with our water permit rights, and added water testing requirements. Altogether, these will cost the City an additional $25,000 during this fiscal year.
On July 25, 2018 the City Council approved a STORMWATER rate increase of $2.00 to all utility customers. This rate increase will help fund future stormwater projects like upgrading the ditches and culverts on 8th Street.
