Summary

The board approved a Tier 1 matching grant of $27,240 (75% of a $36,320 estimate) to RMZ Investments for exterior repairs and a new wheelchair ramp at 1611 Fowler Street, a certified historic landmark project processed as a like-for-like change.

Mr. Colon presented RMZ Investments' application for improvements at 1611 Fowler Street (Something Bridal Boutique), including a new wheelchair ramp, exterior patching and painting. The lowest estimate was $36,320; the recommended award was the 75% share of eligible work, $27,240.

Board members asked clarifying questions about whether Historic Preservation Commission review or prior permits were required. Mr. Colon confirmed eligibility screening and that the program requires final permits or proof of passing inspections before reimbursements are issued. Ms. Smith observed this appears to be among the last improvement grants for the fiscal year and noted programmatic budget limits; the board approved the motion.
