CRA approves $25,000 façade reimbursement to Sparks and Stinson LLC; transcript shows inconsistent payee/address spellings
Summary
The CRA approved a $25,000 reimbursement for façade work by Sparks and Stinson LLC (transcript later spells the payee 'Stimpson' and alternately lists the address as South Ridgewood/Redwood); staff reported the project's total cost as $52,443.64.
The Community Redevelopment Agency voted to approve a $25,000 façade grant reimbursement to Sparks and Stinson LLC for façade improvements, a door replacement, painting, landscaping and a new sign. City staff reported the original grant approval date as 04/12/2023 and listed the total cost of work as $52,443.64.
The staff presentation noted a clean-hand search showed no outstanding city or county fees and no open permits. "The total cost of work was $52,443.64" and staff recommended "the CRA facade grant reimbursement request in the amount of $25,000 to Sparks and Stimpson LLC," the staff member stated in the record. The transcript contains inconsistent spellings and addresses for the payee and project (initially spelled "Sparks and Stinson LLC" at 919 South Ridgewood Avenue, later spelled "Sparks and Stimpson LLC" and referred to as South Redwood Avenue); the board did not provide an alternate spelling or address in the meeting record.
A board member moved to approve the reimbursement; another member seconded. The board approved the motion on a roll-call vote with all members recorded as voting in favor. The approval covers the reimbursement payment under the CRA medium-scale façade grant program; city staff will proceed with standard disbursement steps.
