Transportation notified the City that we had been awarded a $144,763.00 highway
beautification grant which is to be matched by $145,814.08 of in-kind city services. The
State requires that the city notify them that we intend to accept the grant within sixty days
of notification of the grant award. Once notified, the DOT will begin the process of
formalizing the required documents. The grant funds and the in-kind City services must
also be appropriated and a special revenue account must be set up to track the funds.
CONCLUSION: The administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission
adopt the attached resolution. •
