Commissioners voted 5-0 to approve a contract with WithersRavenel to provide grant administration services (not to exceed $20,000) for a $380,000 Rural Transformation Grant from the NC Department of Commerce for the Riverlink Greenway Trail project.
The Town of Cramerton voted unanimously on Jan. 2 to approve a contract with WithersRavenel to administer a 2023 Rural Transformation Grant awarded by the North Carolina Department of Commerce. Assistant Town Manager Josh Watkins told the board the grant provides $380,000 toward the Riverlink Greenway Trail project and allocates $20,000 for grant administration services; the town selected WithersRavenel, which assisted the town in obtaining the grant, to perform those services.
“Services will not exceed the $20,000 amount. The full amount for these services will be paid by the grant,” Watkins said. Commissioner Scott Kincaid moved to approve the contract; Commissioner Kathy Ramsey seconded, and the vote was 5-0 in favor.
The board approved the contract as part of the meeting’s consent agenda; no amendments to the contract or additional funding commitments were made during the meeting.
