McBee council endorses grant applications to bring water, sewer and storm drains to college
Summary
Mayor Glenn Odom said NETC identified federal and state grants to extend water, sewer and storm drainage to the local college and that NETC will prepare applications and matching if needed; the council voted to authorize searching for and applying to such grants.
Mayor Glenn Odom told the Town of McBee council on July 16 that the president of NETC contacted the town to report federal and state grant opportunities that could fund water, sewer and storm drainage infrastructure for the local college. Odom said NETC "will write any grant, and if there is any matching, they will do it," and told the council the work "will not cost the Town anything." The transcript records NETC's president as the source but does not provide a full name or representation in the minutes.
Odom asked the council to endorse applying and running any grant applications through the Town to facilitate the work. Mayor Odom moved to "search and apply to any grants we can get to help the college to come" and Councilman James Linton seconded. The minutes record "No Discussion" and record the motion passed with "All in Favor." The minutes do not include a numerical roll-call tally.
The minutes do not state which specific federal or state grant programs NETC identified, nor do they name the college. NETC is referenced only by its acronym in the minutes. The council recorded formal endorsement to proceed with seeking and applying for grants through the Town; further steps and any award outcomes will depend on grant application results and are not recorded in these minutes.
