Summary

The CRA approved a matching grant (award capped at $50,000) for Golf View Motel Inc. at 3523 Cleveland Avenue to demolish an unused pool, add landscaping and repave areas to improve guest spaces.

Staff presented a commercial property improvement application for Golf View Motel Inc. at 3523 Cleveland Avenue, noting the average estimate of $89,200 and a requested grant capped at the program maximum of $50,000. The project scope included pool demolition, hardscaping and landscaping intended to improve guest comfort and site appearance.

An applicant representative explained the pool has been out of service for more than a year and detailed plans to remove it and replace the space with landscaping and seating. After brief questions — including a lighthearted exchange about golf balls found in the pool — the board moved and approved the recommendation to award a grant for the property not to exceed $50,000.
