Hallock council approves payments, awards EDA grants to local businesses
Summary
The Hallock City Council approved listed city bills and payroll transfers totaling the reported amounts, and awarded EDA grants of $3,500 to Craft Brewhaus and $5,000 to Hotel Hallock during its July 7 meeting.
The Hallock City Council on July 7 approved payment of listed city bills and a payroll transfer and awarded two EDA grants to downtown businesses.
Administrator Kendra Kroening presented the Budget-to-Actual report and the list of bills to be paid. Councilor Jen Peterson moved to authorize payment of checks and electronic transfers (Total Check Amount: $274,699.45 AF; $35,898.43 UVB; Payroll transfer $56,771.91). Councilor Mike Totleben seconded the motion, which carried unanimously.
The council also approved two Economic Development Authority grants.
