Sperry trustees weigh REAP grant projects: police station or 4th Street repaving
Summary
At the June 25 meeting, Sperry trustees discussed submitting projects to the Indian Nations Council of Governments (INCOG) REAP grant: a proposed ~1,300 sq. ft. police station (potential Cherokee Nation construction labor support) or repaving 4th Street from Cherokee Street to Pirate Pride Road. No selection vote was recorded.
The Sperry Board of Trustees discussed potential projects to nominate for the Indian Nations Council of Governments (INCOG) Rural Economic Action Plan (REAP) grant during its June 25, 2026 special meeting. The minutes record that the board considered both transportation and community development grant tracks: a transportation grant could be submitted for up to $200,000, while a community development grant could be submitted for up to $65,000.
Project concepts mentioned in the minutes included building a new police station approximately 1,300 square feet in size, with possible assistance from the Cherokee Nation for construction labor, and repaving 4th Street from Cherokee Street to Pirate Pride Road. The minutes record discussion of these ideas but do not show a motion, vote or final selection of which project — if any — would be submitted to INCOG. Next steps are not specified in the minutes.
