Summary

During the Jan. 27 meeting the committee nominated and elected Champ Clawson as the PACE committee chair for the coming year; the committee then resumed grant applicant presentations and scoring.

At the opening of the Jan. 27 meeting a committee member nominated Champ Clawson to serve as the PACE committee chair for the coming year; another member seconded the nomination and members voted 'Aye' with no recorded opposition, and the chair position was transferred.

Committee leadership then reviewed the PACE process for applicants: each applicant presents their project to the committee, committee members complete score sheets, scores are averaged, and projects meeting the minimum score (36) are recommended to the Board of Public Works for a final vote. The newly seated chair then led the meeting into a series of public presentations by applicants from across downtown Madison.

There was no further contested leadership business during the meeting; the committee proceeded to review and score applications and later moved to recommend qualifying applications to the Board of Public Works.
