Council discusses $200,000 in planning grants for comprehensive and climate plans
Summary
Two $100,000 grants were submitted for the Comprehensive Plan and Climate Plan (no city match required); the City Attorney said the Mayor can accept the grants and that acceptance must be completed by Dec. 12.
Council reviewed submitted grant applications for the city's Comprehensive Plan and Climate Plan, each requesting $100,000 and requiring no city match.
The minutes state: "A grant was submitted for each of these and both for $100,000. with no City match required. The $200,000. if received, would help pay for reviewing the plans. Since there is no match required, City Attorney Norton said that the Mayor can accept the approval of the grants. This needs to be done by December 12th." Council did not record a separate council vote to accept the grants during the meeting; the City Attorney advised that the Mayor can accept them given the lack of matching obligations.
If both grants are accepted, staff said the funds would be used to review the Comprehensive Plan and Climate Plan; the minutes do not list consultant names or detailed scopes.
