Council authorizes mayor to sign CDBG neighborhood‑revitalization documents
Summary
Council voted by voice to authorize the mayor to sign a package of required documents to support a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) neighborhood revitalization project; staff said the materials must be filed by May 23 to keep the grant on schedule.
During the May 13 budget work session the council authorized the mayor to sign required paperwork for a CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Project.
A town staff member (S3) listed the documents the grant requires: an order to support the project, an equal employment and nondiscrimination plan, a fair housing plan, a Section 3 plan, a 504 grievance procedure, a language access plan, signatory resolutions and certifications, a displacement/relocation plan, participation/assist plans, a code of conduct, grant program ordinances and an optional coverage/location plan. Staff said the packet must be submitted by May 23 to Raleigh to keep the grant timeline on track. The precise grant award amount was not stated clearly in the transcript and is therefore not specified here.
S3 asked for a motion authorizing the mayor and council to sign the documents; S4 seconded. The chair called for a voice vote and the council approved the authorization by acclamation; no roll‑call vote or individual tallies were recorded in the transcript.
Next steps: staff will obtain the mayor’s signatures and submit the packet to the state in advance of the May 23 deadline.
