Clover Church to receive $50,000 tourism grant for brick restoration
Summary
The council agreed to allow Clover Church to use a confirmed $50,000 tourism grant to reimburse invoices for exterior brick restoration; Abstract Masonry adjusted its bid and council noted that expenditures over $500 will require separate approval.
The Rush Valley Town Council approved using a confirmed $50,000 tourism grant to support exterior brick restoration at Clover Church.
Council reviewed a bid from Abstract Masonry and noted the contractor adjusted its price after learning of the grant. Council and staff debated how to administer the grant funds: the clerk clarified that invoices under $500 may be processed without separate council approval, but purchases above that threshold will require council review. The chair stated that the grant will reimburse or pay invoices directly.
What happens next: staff will process grant reimbursements and track invoices; if any single purchase exceeds $500 the church or contractor must return to the council for approval.
