As part of the SRF loan, the City of Waukee has the ability to amend the loan which turns a portion of the loan’s interest (approximately 1%) into principal to fund water resource restoration sponsored projects. The Cities of Clive and Waukee have partnered together to restore a section of the Little Walnut Creek stream between N Warrior Lane and NW 156th Street. The Water Resource Restoration Sponsored Project includes restoration of approximately 16,000 feet of Little Walnut Creek within the City of Clive’s municipal boundary. This section of Little Walnut Creek is degraded and unstable, discharging an estimated 14,495 tons of soil erosion annually from the channel itself. This public hearing is to amendment the SRF loan the City of Waukee used for the construction of the NE Outfall Sewer Project to partially finance the Clive-Waukee Sponsored Project. The sponsored project is currently under construction with an anticipated completion date of July 2025.
