Fulton council authorizes MMRPC to administer CDBG for Westminster Avenue stormwater tunnel
Summary
The Fulton City Council voted to authorize the mayor to sign a contract with the Mid-Missouri Regional Planning Commission to administer a Community Development Block Grant for the Westminster Avenue stormwater tunnel project.
The Fulton City Council voted to authorize the mayor to sign a contract with the Mid-Missouri Regional Planning Commission to administer a Community Development Block Grant for the Westminster Avenue stormwater tunnel project. Councilman Washington read the resolution at the meeting and moved its adoption.
The resolution, identified as Resolution 35 90, gives the mayor authority to sign “all necessary documents in relation to a contract with Mid Missouri Regional Plan Commission to administer the community development block grant (CDBG) for the Westminster Avenue stormwater tunnel project,” according to the text read aloud by Councilman Washington.
The council approved the resolution by voice vote; the motion carried with all members saying “aye” and no opposition recorded. The resolution establishes an effective date for the contract but does not specify construction start dates or funding amounts in the council reading.
City officials did not discuss specific dollar amounts, a project timeline, or contractor selection during the council action recorded in the transcript. The resolution as read delegates grant administration to the Mid-Missouri Regional Planning Commission (MMRPC), which will handle CDBG administrative requirements for the stated Westminster Avenue stormwater tunnel project.
The authorization is limited to signing and administering grant paperwork; the transcript includes no formal direction about project design, permitting, or construction procurement. Any future steps tied to implementation, including environmental review or bidding, were not discussed during the council’s adoption of the resolution.
Councilman Washington read and moved the resolution; a second was recorded during the meeting but not identified by name in the transcript. The council took no additional formal actions on the stormwater tunnel during the session.
The council’s action creates the administrative pathway for the city to use CDBG funding for the Westminster Avenue stormwater tunnel, but the transcript does not provide further budgetary or schedule details. Residents seeking project specifics were not recorded speaking on this item during the meeting.
