Summary

City staff said the city is applying for a Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) grant to fund construction elements of the Farker Park master plan and requested a resolution authorizing the mayor to sign the application; the committee voted to place the item on the April 1 legislative agenda.

City staff told the committee on March 26 that York City is applying to the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) for construction funding to implement the Farker Park master plan and that the grant application requires a council resolution authorizing the mayor to sign.

The presenter explained the resolution would permit the mayor to execute the DCNR grant application and any required assurances; no funding award has been made and the resolution only authorizes signing and submission of materials. Council members had no substantive questions and the committee voted to place the authorization resolution on the April 1 legislative agenda for final council action.

Why this matters: DCNR grants can fund park construction and improvements; authorizing the mayor to sign is a routine municipal prerequisite to applying for state capital grants.
