Why This Vote Matters
The council voted to extend the city's contract with Glen Price Group for grant writing services, increasing the total contract value from $110,000 to $231,000. The 16-month extension will allow the company to continue helping the city apply for grants and find funding opportunities through June 2008. Six members supported the extension while Vice Mayor Bates opposed it, with two members absent. This means the city will spend an additional $121,000 on professional grant writing services to potentially bring in outside funding.
