CRA approves small grants, roof repair and opens property disposition process
Summary
At its meeting, the Sebring CRA voted to add $500 to a façade grant, approved a revitalization grant for 4522 Lehi Avenue, authorized a $56,807.36 roof replacement for 120 North Ridgewood Drive, opened a 30-day RFP for 139 North Ridgewood Drive and approved an extension and default notice process for a tenant’s certificate-of-occupancy deadline.
Sebring Community Redevelopment Agency members approved a series of routine grants and maintenance contracts and opened a public request-for-proposals process for a downtown property at their meeting.
The board voted to add $500 to a façade grant after staff reported a paint color error that required a repaint. The CRA also approved a revitalization grant for 4522 Lehi Avenue and accepted a contractor quote for a roof replacement at 120 North Ridgewood Drive (Sophie's Cafe) totaling $56,807.36. The board authorized re-advertisement and a 30-day proposal period for disposition of 139 North Ridgewood Drive and designated a three-member selection committee. Members also approved an extension to allow a tenant additional time to secure a certificate of occupancy and instructed staff to prepare a default notice if the milestone is missed.
