The Middleton Common Council will vote on a budget amendment to add $575,000 to the 2020 budget under capital borrowing to replace the pumping station at Tiedeman Pond to handle greater capacity, at its June 16 meeting. The new pumping station would have the capacity to move enough water at a fast enough rate to mitigate the flooding that occurred in August 2018. 

Late 2019 the council approved an agreement with MSA Professional Services for the final design of improvements at Graber and Tiedeman ponds. The funding source for this design work was a State Trust Fund Loan (STFL) that was approved at the end of 2019. The projects are not eligible for FEMA reimbursement as they are considered improvements rather than the repairs.
