Selma agrees to pursue time-sensitive $9 million electric-resiliency grant opportunity
Summary
Council authorized staff to pursue a time-sensitive electric-resiliency grant (described in the meeting as about $9 million available to small power agencies); council asked staff to proceed given the tight deadline and return with details.
Town staff informed the council on June 4 that a time-sensitive electric-resiliency grant opportunity is available, described in the meeting as approximately $9 million dedicated to small power agencies. Staff asked for authority to pursue the funding; the council signaled support and asked staff to move forward given the short application window.
Council members thanked staff for acting quickly to identify the opportunity and noted that items like this often do not come before council if staff can meet application deadlines; staff confirmed details had been emailed to council and that they would follow up with additional information.
Next steps: staff will work to assemble an application and return to council with details and any required local match or commitments.
