Committee discusses grant payment logistics, missing contact and meeting schedule
Summary
Members raised contractor payment concerns with the city's grant process and asked staff about a missing member contact for committee communications; the group also reviewed whether the 1 p.m. meeting time suits members and agreed to revisit the schedule at the next meeting.
During business by members, several property owners and contractors reportedly resisted program rules that require payments to flow through the city; staff explained the grant process was modeled on the RDA program where work is inspected before city payment to ensure correct completion.
Members also noted Tom Mitchell was not receiving committee emails; staff asked for a correct email to add him back into distribution. Finally, members discussed whether the current 1 p.m. meeting time works for everyone (some members said noon or mornings could work better for their schedules); they agreed to discuss schedule changes at the next meeting rather than act immediately.
