Stainholzer. Good afternoon. Thank you council president,
[1:29]
to bring members of the City Council Mayor Norton.
[1:32]
They requested action before you the afternoon is to repeal and replace Resolution 137-26
[1:39]
that you authorized in July, 2026 at a City Council meeting.
[1:44]
This is related to the raised grant that we received for the Sixth Street Bridge, Neighborhood
[1:50]
and Riverfront Safety Improvements, Neighborhood Safety and Riverfront Improvements project.
[1:55]
At the time, the resolution was very prescriptive in stating that they may or be authorized
[2:00]
to sign a grant agreement of 19.9 million, asking for a slight modification to the
[2:05]
resolution for it to read up to 19.9 million.
[2:09]
The grant that we were notified of is 19.9 million in federal funding for the construction of that
[2:16]
project.
[2:17]
We are in final negotiations with the agreement and wanted to just make sure that we have the
[2:24]
flexibility to sign the grant agreement and stand schedule with the planned agreement deadline
[2:31]
and construction schedule. So, the request is for you to repeat, take action to
[2:36]
repeal the prior resolution and approve this resolution, which says up to 19.9 million.
[2:42]
Thank you. Questions?
[2:45]
Council member King. Just minor logistics, but the resolution does repeal and replace a resolution
[2:53]
with a specific number, but the one we're making does not have a specific number, that's just logistics that it'll come after we make the resolution.
[3:02]
It might be a question for the clerk's office.
[3:05]
Yes, that's correct.
[3:06]
So we're repealing the prior resolution number and then once this is adopted, it will receive a new resolution number.
[3:12]
Thank you.
[3:15]
Any further questions?
[3:16]
Is there a motion on this item?
[3:18]
I'll move to adopt the resolution to repeal and replace resolution.
[3:21]
