Call to Order and Review Agenda <br /> <br />Ms. Taylor called the meeting of the Council Committee on Intergovernmental Relations (CCIGR) to order <br />and reviewed the agenda. <br /> <br />It was noted that Mayor Piercy was sitting in for Councilor Poling as his proxy. <br /> <br />Intergovernmental Relations Manager, Brenda Wilson, asked that three additional items be placed on the <br />agenda: first a grant application submitted by the Recreation Department; second, clarification from the <br />CCIGR of the grant application process; and third, a discussion of the recent federal priorities (United <br />Front) trip to Washington D.C. <br /> <br />2. Grant Application <br /> <br />Ms. Wilson indicated that the grant request had been submitted by Craig Smith, Recreation Program <br />Manager, and asked him to briefly highlight it. <br /> <br />Mr. Smith explained that the School District 4J had asked the City to partner with them for a grant to fund <br />an after school program. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy noted that she was serving as a proxy for Mr. Poling. She asked if the grant sought to replace <br />the funding that the City had invested in the past. Mr. Smith replied that to a certain degree this was <br />correct. He clarified that the grant would add capacity to the program. <br /> <br />Mr. Smith related that he had spoken to the grant writer and she indicated that she wanted to increase the <br />request for funding from $64,000 to $83,000. Councilor Taylor asked if this increase would have any <br />impact on the city’s responsibility or require funding from the city. Mr. Smith stated that the increase would <br />not. <br /> <br />Ms. Ortiz, seconded by Mayor Piercy, moved to accept the grant application. The motion <br />passed unanimously, 3:0. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Council Committee on Intergovernmental Relations April 23, 2008 Page 1 <br /> <br /> <br />
