Council backs $250,000 GTRP application with school district as subgrantee; seeks 5% admin fee
Summary
Steelton Borough approved Resolution 2025-R-10 to apply for a $250,000 Greenways, Trails and Recreation Program grant with the School District as subgrantee and requested a cooperation agreement including a 5% administrative charge and reimbursement for borough legal fees. Council approved the resolution unanimously.
The Steelton Borough Council voted unanimously to approve Resolution 2025-R-10, authorizing an application to the Greenways, Trails and Recreation Program (GTRP) for $250,000 with the local school district named as subgrantee/passthrough.
Borough Manager Kathy McCool told council that, if the grant is awarded, she would like a cooperation agreement drawn that includes a 5% administrative charge and coverage of the borough's legal fees. Councilmember Michael Segina asked whether the borough could be responsible for an audit; McCool said the third-party consultant agency would be responsible for audit tasks but emphasized the borough could ultimately bear responsibility if issues arose. The motion to approve the resolution was made by Segina, seconded by Julianna Paioletti, and passed unanimously.
Council did not adopt a final cooperation agreement at the workshop; McCool indicated the borough would prepare the agreement for solicitor review if the grant is awarded. The resolution records the borough's intent to support greenways and recreation investments that would be administered in coordination with the school district.
