The Port Townsend City Council will consider applying for $12 million in loans for the drinking water system.
The meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. in council chambers at historic City Hall, 540 Water St.
The two loans — each $6 million — would be from the Drinking Water State Revolving Loan Fund.
One would be for the $17 million membrane filtration water treatment facility to remove cryptosporidium, which can cause gastrointestinal illness.
A $9,937,110 loan already has been received, and local revenue is $1,062,890.
The other is for replacement of the city’s 5 million-gallon reservoir. Loans of $2,104,000 have been received, and local revenue is $896,000 for the $9 million project.
The council also will consider entering into a service agreement with a bank.
In March, the council approved a recommendation to request proposals from U.S. Bank, Kitsap Bank and First Federal to take over the city’s banking services.
After those proposals were received, the Council Finance and Budget Committee voted to recommend Kitsap Bank.
City offices will be closed Monday because of the Labor Day holiday.
