Summary

The CRA approved a $24,750 increase to an existing grant for the American Czech Slovak Cultural Club to cover unanticipated costs to remove Australian pine trees on the club’s property.

The North Miami Community Redevelopment Agency approved a supplemental award of $24,750 to the American Czech Slovak Cultural Club to cover unexpected additional costs associated with removing Australian pine trees on the organization’s property.

NMCRA staff said the grantee encountered a requirement to remove all Australian pines on the site rather than only some, which increased project costs. The board amended the previously approved grant to add the required funds and approved the increase on a motion by Board Member Charles, seconded by Board Member Burns. The motion carried 3-0.

No additional conditions or amendments were recorded in the meeting minutes; staff will implement the supplemental payment consistent with the existing grant agreement and reporting requirements.
