Jessica Bittenstad, grants supervisor, summarized the city's grant activity for the quarter: 21 grants awarded to date totaling $4,330,307 and 12 grants currently being implemented totaling $4,228,957.
Bittenstad said three grant applications submitted last quarter included a $3,000 match and a combined total request of $367,000, and that five applications were in process this quarter (two were submitted that day for the Candy Lane and multi‑use path build applications). She later clarified the award and implementation totals she cited were for the fiscal year.
Aldermen praised the results, noting the low local match relative to funds secured. Bittenstad said she was continuing to pursue additional opportunities and would report back as applications are awarded or implemented.
The report provides council oversight of external funding that offsets local tax dollars and supports capital and community projects; it contains specific award totals and application status for staff follow up.
