The Clarksburg City Council voted to apply for a $400,000 West Virginia Department of Transportation Transportation Alternatives grant to fund the Pike Street Sidewalks and Streetscape Project, with a required 20% match of $100,000. A motion to approve the application was made, seconded and carried by voice vote.
Council members and staff clarified that the grant request covered the Pike Street sidewalks and streetscape elements, not the Main Street sections that already have some grant funding. Vice Mayor Romano said, verbatim, "the $100,000, that we have to match will come from TIF funds, Kim." A staff member later summarized the uncommitted balance available in the TIF account: "It's about 900,000." The council did not record a roll-call tally in the public record shown in the transcript; the meeting record notes only that the motion carried.
