Bay City approves GrantWorks to administer downtown Texas CDBG revitalization grant
Summary
Council voted to award grant administration for the Texas CDBG Downtown Revitalization/Main Street program to GrantWorks, the top-ranked proposer in a three-submittal RFP; staff said the administrator will help write the application and implement the project if funded.
City staff presented the results of a request for proposals to administer Bay City’s Texas CDBG Downtown Revitalization/Main Street grant application and recommended GrantWorks as the top-ranked firm after scoring three submittals. Gabriel Lopez explained the evaluation criteria — experience, work performance, capacity to perform and a scored price component — and said the grant administrator would assist with application preparation, implementation and closeout if the city is awarded funds.
After a motion and second, the council approved the staff recommendation. "Having gone through those criteria and tallied up the price proposal scoring, the top ranked firm for this program was GrantWorks," Gabriel Lopez said. GrantWorks staff in attendance later thanked the council: "We love working with you guys ... Bay City is special to us," Natalie of GrantWorks said during a brief introduction.
