CRA awards $8,769 storm mitigation grant to Dean Street Sports Bar
Summary
As part of a downtown storm-mitigation pilot, the CRA board approved a $8,769 award (75% of $11,691 project cost) to Dean Street Sports Bar LLC for protective barriers and resiliency measures within the program boundary.
Director (Speaker 4) described the downtown storm mitigation pilot program, which covers properties from the river to the south side of First Street between the two bridges. Eligible expenses include protective barriers, water-management systems, structural hardening and generators. Director noted requests are being received from properties outside the pilot boundary but those are not being considered in this cycle.
The application for Dean Street Sports Bar LLC covered a protective barrier system with a total cost of $11,691; the 75% grant portion equals $8,769. The board approved the award by voice vote. Director noted the barrier type is the same system used successfully by nearby businesses and that it has not yet been field-tested citywide.
