Council approves Resolution 2026‑004 to support America 250 grant application
Summary
Finance Director Jennifer Belfield said the city applied for America 250 funding for Ammon Days decorations and $500 to support MYAC; the council adopted Resolution 2026‑004 required by the grant application in a unanimous roll call vote (one member absent).
Finance Director Jennifer Belfield told the Ammon City Council on March 5 that the city had applied for an America 250 grant from the Idaho Secretary of State and that one grant requirement was a resolution affirming the city's commitment to uphold the Constitution. Belfield said she applied for $2,000 to fund Ammon Days decorations and $500 to support the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council annual fundraiser; she noted Recreation Director Randal Miller also applied and that she was unsure whether the state would award two separate grants to the same municipality.
The council voted to adopt Resolution 2026‑004. The motion was moved by Council President Scott Wessel and seconded by Council Member Kris Oswald. Roll call showed Council Member Nolan Wheeler absent; Oswald, Wessel, Boyle, Fullmer and Hamberlin voted yes. The motion passed unanimously with one absence.
The minutes record the application amounts and the resolution requirement but do not record whether the grant has been awarded; staff will notify council if funding is received.
