Council assigns grant-signing authority after wastewater grant award
Summary
Sumpter announced it received a wastewater grant and moved that Mayor Linda Weiss remain the city's grant reviewer and signer; council recorded the motion and set processes for disbursements and checks and balances.
Chair (S1) informed the council that Sumpter received a wastewater grant and is now in the design phase. Because grant disbursements require multiple signers for checks and balances, the council discussed who should be authorized to sign paperwork and approve disbursements.
Committee member (S7) moved that Mayor Linda Weiss retain the status of reviewing and signing all grants; the motion was seconded and the council recorded the approval. Chair (S1) clarified that disbursements will require separate people to sign and that the city will maintain a check-and-balance approach for grant payments.
Council directed staff to confirm which individuals are authorized on the disbursement accounts and to present any required signature forms for the next meeting. The motion preserves centralized grant oversight while arranging additional disbursement signers as part of project controls.
