Batavia to accept micro-enterprise grant; BDC to serve as sub-recipient and select consultant
Summary
The City of Batavia will accept a micro-enterprise grant and pass administration to the Business Development Center (BDC) as sub-recipient for 24 months; council agreed to move selection of a consultant and related agreements forward.
City staff informed the council that Batavia was awarded a micro-enterprise grant aimed at supporting very small businesses. Mrs. Tabelski recommended accepting the grant; Ms. Hathaway, identified in the record as BDC Director, said the BDC would act as the sub-recipient for a 24-month period, that eligible businesses would generally have five employees or fewer, and that the city will select a consultant to administer the entrepreneurial program at no cost to the city.
Council agreed to move the grant acceptance, sub-recipient agreement and consultant selection items forward. The transcript does not include the grant amount, the consultant selected or program enrollment details; those will need to be returned for council action and public notice.
