Garden City OKs participation in EPD 'STAR' scrap-tire abatement reimbursement grant
Summary
The council authorized Garden City to participate in the Georgia EPD 'STAR' local government scrap-tire abatement reimbursement grant and authorized the city manager to execute required documents; the resolution passed unanimously.
The Garden City City Council voted on June 1 to participate in the Georgia Environmental Protection Division’s Local Government Scrap Tire Abatement Reimbursement Grant (the EPD “STAR” program) and authorized the city manager to execute all necessary agreements and documents.
At the meeting the city manager explained the STAR program reimburses the city for the cost of removal and processing of scrap tires collected from city rights-of-way. A council member moved to approve the resolution and the motion was seconded; the clerk called the roll and the council approved the resolution by unanimous vote.
No dollar amounts or timelines were discussed during the meeting; the resolution authorizes participation and execution of documents but does not itself commit specified funds or set implementation deadlines. Staff will execute grant documents and return to council with any budgetary or program details that require council approval.
