Summary
At a Nov. 20 special meeting, the Denison City Council unanimously approved a partnership with Friends of the Crawford County Wellness Center to pursue an EPA Community Change Grant and tabled consideration of bid package #1 for the wellness center. The council noted the grant application deadline is the following day at 10:59 p.m.
The Denison City Council on Nov. 20 unanimously approved a partnership agreement with Friends of the Crawford County Wellness Center to pursue the EPA Community Change Grant and then voted to table discussion on bid package #1 for the wellness center.
The vote came during a special called meeting that Mayor Pamela Soseman opened at 5:00 p.m. Council member Zupp-Smith moved to approve the partnership agreement and Logan seconded; the motion carried unanimously. According to Garcia, "the City is the lead applicant and the Friends is the statutory applicant and the Friends will meet tomorrow to discuss and potentially to approve the agreement. The deadline for grant is tomorrow at 10:59 p.m."
The partnership authorizes the City of Denison to serve as the lead applicant for the EPA Community Change Grant, with Friends of the Crawford County Wellness Center designated as the statutory applicant. Council members discussed and then approved that arrangement so the grant application could proceed before the stated deadline. The record shows the motion to approve was moved by Zupp-Smith and seconded by Logan and that the motion "carried unanimously." Present for the vote were Mayor Pamela Soseman and council members Granzen, Logan, Zupp-Smith and Curnyn; Miller was recorded as absent.
After the partnership vote, Council member Granzen moved and Logan seconded a motion to table discussion and any possible motion on bid package #1 for the Crawford County Wellness Center; that motion also carried unanimously. No details about the contents or cost of bid package #1 were provided in the meeting record.
With no other business, Mayor Soseman adjourned the meeting at 5:05 p.m.
