Board authorizes Mount Vernon station houses project; CDBG 2024 funds cited
Summary
The Board approved an ordinance authorizing the Mount Vernon station houses project and confirmed funding will come from Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) year 2024 funds and prior-year CDBG carryovers.
The Mount Vernon Board of Estimate and Contract on Thursday voted to approve a Department of Public Works ordinance authorizing the Mount Vernon station houses project and confirmed the funding source as Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
During the brief discussion a board member asked whether the money would come from CDBG; a staff speaker replied that the funds are from CDBG year 2024 and any CDBG funds carried over from prior years. The ordinance was moved and seconded on the record and passed when Comptroller Morton, Council President Brown and Mayor Patterson Howard each voted aye.
No project budget or construction schedule was provided in the meeting transcript. The item was handled as an emergency ordinance in the special meeting; the board did not record amendments or further debate on funding breakdowns during the session.
