Council approved a routine resolution designating the city manager and finance director as authorized agents to request and receive grant reimbursements for non‑state agencies, a step staff said is required for grant eligibility and reimbursement.

The council approved a resolution authorizing the city manager and finance director to act as applicant agents for non‑state grants and to request grant reimbursements. Staff described the designation as a routine but necessary administrative step to meet grant application eligibility requirements.

Finance Director Jessica Bigby said the designation permits those positions to request reimbursement and implement grant tasks and noted that any newly hired grant manager could not be named as an authorized agent while overseeing their own grant. The resolution passed by roll call without substantive public comment.
