Denison council backs IEDA CDBG application, adopts resolution to provide local match
Summary
The Denison City Council unanimously adopted Resolution #2025-54 authorizing a Community Development Block Grant application to the Iowa Economic Development Authority and confirmed a letter of support from the mayor; no public objections were recorded at the hearing.
The Denison City Council on Oct. 21 unanimously adopted Resolution #2025-54 authorizing the city to apply to the Iowa Economic Development Authority for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and to provide the required local match. Mayor Pamela Soseman presided over a 5:00 p.m. public hearing on the application during which no written or oral objections were received.
The adoption followed a motion by Council Member Zupp-Smith, seconded by Council Member Granzen, that carried unanimously. Council later voted to allow the mayor to sign a letter of support for the City’s application. "There were no objections to the application," Mayor Pamela Soseman said after closing the hearing.
The resolution was introduced as authorizing application to IEDA for a PILOT program and providing match; the transcript does not specify the dollar amount of the match or the proposed project scope. The council-recorded public hearing produced no speakers in opposition, and the mayor declared the hearing closed before the council proceeded with routine consent matters.
Next steps: staff will prepare the formal application materials and the mayor will sign the letter of support authorized by council. Any award, match amount, or specific use of grant funds was not specified in the meeting minutes and will be announced if and when the city receives formal notice from IEDA.
