North Smithfield planning board continues CDBG public hearing on Hallowell access road to May 15
Summary
The planning board continued a public hearing on the town's Community Development Block Grant application for infrastructure at Hallowell to May 15 because the grant writer's application was not received; the CDBG application is due May 20.
The North Smithfield Planning Board on May 8 voted to continue a public hearing on the town's proposed Rhode Island Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) application for infrastructure work on the access road at Hallowell to a date certain of May 15 at 6 p.m. in the council chambers.
Town staff member Miss Moynihan told the board the agenda item concerned a CDBG application for the Hallowell access road but that the grant writer's application had not been received. "We did not receive the application from the grant writer, so we cannot approve it, obviously," Miss Moynihan said, and recommended continuing the hearing because the application is due May 20.
The board, citing input from the town solicitor, moved to continue the hearing to May 15 at 6 p.m.; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. The board directed staff to place the item on the May 15 agenda so members could review the completed application before any formal action.
No further details on the proposed Hallowell project's scope, cost or contractor were provided during the meeting; Miss Moynihan said those materials had not yet been submitted by the grant writer. The board did not make a substantive determination on the application at the May 8 meeting.
