Summary

The Pawnee City Council voted unanimously June 24 to apply for a $325,000 CDBG Public Works grant for street repairs, agreeing to a $65,000 city match and budgeting $30,000 for administrative costs and engineering.

Pawnee City Council voted unanimously June 24 to apply for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Public Works grant requesting $325,000 for street repairs, with the city committing a $65,000 local match and budgeting $30,000 for administrative costs and engineering.

Council Member Susan Eisenhauer moved for the city to submit the application; Council Member Donnie Fisher seconded and the motion passed on a roll call vote with all members present voting in favor. The motion authorizes city staff to finalize the application materials and include engineering and administration expenses in the grant budget.

If funded, the grant would finance the street-repair scope the council had previously budgeted for the fiscal year; the city match was included in the current fiscal plan. The council did not approve specific contractors at the meeting; any awarded work will follow procurement rules and be brought back to the council for contract approval.

Next steps: staff will complete the CDBG application and submit it to the administering agency on the schedule required by the program. The city will notify the council of any subsequent public hearings, award actions, or required match funding commitments.
