ATAC reschedules July meeting, cancels August in favor of applicant workshops and mentorship proposal
Summary
Town staff proposed calendar revisions tied to ATAX policy changes; the committee voted to move the July meeting to July 24 and cancel August 7 and discussed two applicant workshops (day and evening) and an optional mentorship program for new applicants.
Town staff told the committee the calendar change is linked to pending ATAX policy revisions that town council will review on July 15. To give the committee the opportunity to act after council deliberations, staff proposed moving the July 10 meeting to later in July. Committee members agreed and voted to move that meeting to July 24 at 2 p.m.
Staff also proposed replacing the August 7 ATAC meeting with two applicant workshops (one daytime, one evening) to provide more interactive guidance to grant applicants. Committee members discussed recommending that town council make attendance mandatory for new applicants, and several members proposed an optional mentorship program pairing experienced grantees with new applicants to improve application quality. The committee voted to cancel the August 7 meeting and await town staff notification of workshop dates.
