City to pursue $100,000 New York Community Trust grant for sustainability coordinator work
Summary
Council was notified of an opportunity for the Center for Economic and Environmental Partnership to apply to the New York Community Trust for a $100,000 grant (no city match) to support climate-change and sustainability work; staff will place the item on the mini-cal/agenda next week for action.
A brief memo was introduced about an opportunity for the Center for Economic and Environmental Partnership — the city’s sustainability coordinator partner — to apply for a $100,000 New York Community Trust grant.
The presenter described prior Trust-funded projects in Peekskill and said the grant would require no city match. "I think it's a great thing for us," the presenter said, and staff asked permission to list the item on the mini-cal and return next week with a resolution if the council supports applying.
Council members asked who identified the grant (staff said the partner found it) and expressed general support for pursuing grant opportunities that require no match.
