Staff reports Lena ineligible for some loans; ComEd match and DNR grant to be pursued; Safe Routes application denied
Summary
Planning staff said Lena’s median income makes the village ineligible for some loans; Bridgette Stocks said she will pursue a DNR grant and expects a ComEd matching grant to open in spring. Stocks also reported the Safe Routes to School grant application was not approved.
Bridgette Stocks briefed the committee on grant eligibility and next steps. She said Lena is not eligible for some loans because median income is too high and that she will pursue a DNR grant; she also said a ComEd matching grant opens in the spring and will be placed on a future docket when available.
Stocks reported the Safe Routes to School grant application was not approved and said past experience suggests the reasons may include the project’s scale and negative community responses. Stocks said she will meet with the committee in the coming weeks to review options and next steps.
