County can accept $15,000 Complete Streets award; staff proposes using it toward Safe Streets match
Summary
Staff said Smart Growth America offered a $15,000 Complete Streets award that could be transferred to St. Clair County; commissioners agreed to accept the funds and staff suggested applying them toward a $26,000 match for a Safe Streets for All demonstration activity.
Staff reported the county participated in Smart Growth America's Complete Streets Leadership Academy with Moody and Springville; Springville and Moody were each allotted $15,000 and staff said one town had to drop out, leaving an extra $15,000 that the program offered to the county.
The staff member said the funds come with minimal conditions (attendance at a few meetings) and recommended the county accept them. "They have an extra $15,000 that they would like to give to Saint Clair County," the staff member said. Commissioners discussed using the money as part of the county's $26,000 match for a Safe Streets for All demonstration activity and moved to accept the grant.
Commissioners instructed staff to share the grant agreement with the county attorney (Kirk) for review and then proceed once the attorney confirms terms. No additional local match beyond applying the funds to the previously identified Safe Streets match was approved at this meeting.
