REMARKS:
The following information is provided in response to a question from a Council Member since
the posting of the staff report.
Request clarification on the large amount of leftover funding for this project.
The Community Development Block Grant of $140,000 and a County Supervisor Grant of
$250,000 are awarded as a reimbursement, with the existing GFAR funds being used as front
funding for the grants. Neither of the grants require Town match funding.
It is anticipated that a balance of approximately $250,000 will remain after the completion of
the project if there is no additional unforeseen work, such as mold remediation. This $250,000
could be used to fund ADA improvements in the Adult Recreation Center parking lot which is a
project that meets the grant funding requirements, has already been designed and is pending
plan and specification approval.
