Council authorizes program‑income application to continue business assistance and microenterprise programs
Summary
Community Development staff sought and council approved authorization to apply $500,000 in program income (with $200,000 contingency) to continue local business assistance and microenterprise programs after a failed 2025 CDBG grant effort.
Community Development Director Jen Dart told the council that the city’s 2025 CDBG application for business assistance and microenterprise funding was unsuccessful and requested authorization to use $500,000 in program income (plus $200,000 in future receipts if needed) to continue the programs that support small businesses.
Dart said staff will work on accessibility improvements including Spanish language outreach as part of the application and implementation. Council voted to adopt the resolution authorizing submission of a program‑income application and the city manager to execute applicable documents.
