Grant for Ford's Garage approved conditionally; itemized quotes required for impact windows
Summary
The CRA conditionally approved up to $67,500 for Ford's Garage to install flood barriers and impact-resistant storefronts, with the condition that itemized, qualified vendor quotes for impact windows be provided before final approval of the grant agreement.
The Community Redevelopment Agency voted to approve a storm-mitigation grant not to exceed $67,500 for Ford's Garage, with a condition that itemized, qualified vendor quotes for impact-resistant windows be submitted before the CRA executes the final grant agreement. Staff estimated the total project at about $90,000 and said the $67,500 figure represents 75% of eligible costs.
Janice Bridal, identified on the record as Ford's Garage's director of construction facilities, told commissioners the flood barriers and storefront impact windows are both part of the plan and that the $60,000 figure for impact glass was an estimate based on similar projects; she said formal vendor bids are still pending. Board members and staff agreed the approval should be provisional until the applicant supplies detailed, itemized quotes.
