Reference: CDBG Grant: Grant for Heated Sidewalks and Emergency Generator
For the past few years in January, Council on Aging has presented goals to work toward that are
important to the well -being of the seniors. Two of their goals have been to have heated
sidewalks in front of the ADA parking and driveway under the front canopy and sidewalk to the
front door the senior center. At the past COA meeting they approved a resolution to have the
Director submit a CDBG Grant in the amount of $71,445.00 for heated sidewalks. During the
winter months, during icy and snowy conditions, heated sidewalks would be a benefit to our
senior elders.
At the same COA meeting, one of the members questioned another goal, an emergency
generator. It was decided to move forward, as well, and apply at the same time for an emergency
generator. The amount of the generator is $105,875.00. This would allow the senior center to
provide a safe, warm facility for the seniors during power outages and other emergency
situations.
The total of both projects is $177,320.00. CDBG Grant requires a match of 25 %, ($44,330.00).
Attached are estimates for both items.
