Committee tasks staff to schedule preservation planning meeting for Roberts House grant
Summary
The committee agreed that staff should convene a meeting with consultant Kimberly, preservation architect Chuck, and relevant committee members to develop the planning grant application and fee estimates to pay the preservation architect’s work.
Committee members emphasized that moving the Roberts House preservation project forward requires a focused planning meeting to define consultant fees and grant application tasks.
"We need a meeting scheduled with Kimberly and Chuck," said a committee member, describing the planning grant as principally intended to pay consulting fees for the preservation architect’s scope. Members asked staff liaison CJ to arrange a meeting of the four key participants (Kimberly, CJ, Canada [sic], and Chuck was mentioned) to map tasks and sequencing for the application.
The group discussed that the grant is a planning grant (to fund scope and fees) and that there is no immediate external deadline for the state funding as currently understood; the committee recommended convening prior to the next budget planning period so work can progress. Members also raised conflict-of-interest rules: if a committee member would serve as a paid consultant, state rules and conflict-of-interest limits may apply and must be clarified.
What’s next: CJ will schedule the planning session with Kimberly, Chuck, and committee representatives and report back to the committee with a meeting date and checklist of grant application needs.
