9. DISCUSSION

A. ARPA Funding for Water Connection Assistance

Chair Chaplin held a discussion with Committee members to determine if an interest would exist in allocating $1 million dollars of ARPA funds to the residents of DuPage County, both incorporated and unincorporated, to transition from well water to Lake Michigan water. Under ARPA guidelines, water and sewer infrastructure programs are eligible expenditures. Eligible households would be reimbursed up to $3,000 or 50% of the total cost of the transition, whichever is less. The program would only be open to residential homes; commercial or industrial properties would not qualify at this time. It is estimated that this program would help assist more than 330 homes in DuPage County obtain access to Lake Michigan water. Committee members would like to know an accurate number of homes that are currently in a position to connect to Lake Michigan water, and how many of those homes would be interested in a program like this. This program is intended to be run by the DuPage County Public Works Department.
