Summary
The council voted 5-2 to adopt Resolution 2025-02 to apply for a Recreation Passport Grant to rebuild tennis courts at Bieth Park; the measure commits the city to a maximum local match of $200,000 if awarded.
The Caro City Council on March 3 adopted Resolution 2025-02 to submit a Recreation Passport Grant application to rebuild the tennis courts at Bieth Park, committing to a maximum local match of $200,000.
Councilor Doreen Oedy moved the resolution and Councilor Jill White seconded. The roll call vote was 5 in favor and 2 opposed: Councilor Charlotte Kish and Mayor Karen Snider voted no. The measure authorizes city staff to prepare and submit the grant application and signals the city's intent to provide the stated matching funds if the grant is received.
The resolution does not obligate immediate expenditure of matching funds; it authorizes submission and commits the city to a specified maximum local match should the grant be awarded. Parks & Recreation staff will prepare application materials and report back to council if the state awards the grant. No public comment related to the grant was recorded in the transcript.
