Pasadena Council Considers $959,752 EPA Grant for Sunset Complex Groundwater Treatment Plant

PASADENA, Calif. — October 27, 2026. Pasadena’s October 27 City Council agenda requests a resolution authorizing acceptance of $959,752 in U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Community Grant funding for the Sunset Complex Groundwater Treatment Plant project.

What residents should know

The agenda item appears in the public council packet for the October 27 meeting. A groundwater treatment plant can be part of a municipality’s efforts to maintain drinking water quality and supply, but project requirements and funding conditions are established in the actual engineering and federal grant documents. The council agenda lists the grant amount, proposed acceptance and associated administrative authorization.

What is not yet confirmed

An agenda proposal is not evidence of a completed plant, newly treated water flowing to customers or confirmation the city has actually received or spent the grant. The final vote was not established from the agenda alone; monitor city minutes and the utility’s project updates.
