515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 <br />(612) 484 -2177 / FAX: (612) 484 -4538 <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Fahey & Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br />DATE: November 21, 1997 <br />RE: Local Planning Assistance Grant <br />MAYOR <br />Michael I. Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scalze <br />Jim LaValle <br />Steve Morelan <br />Bob Pedersen <br />ADMINISTRATOR <br />Joel R. Hanson <br />Attached is an agreement with the Metropolitan Council for a local planning assistance grant in <br />the amount of $6,890. A proposed work program is attached to this grant agreement which <br />shows total expenditures of $30,700 upon which we based our application for $20,000 in grant <br />funds. Given the fact that they have only funded $6,890, I am not comfortable recommending <br />this grant agreement at this time showing the full work program. <br />Steve Grittman is discussing this matter with the Metropolitan Council and is asking that our <br />work program be reduced to reflect the amount of the grant or the grant award be increased. If <br />either of those things happen by Wednesday evening, we will report on that and make a <br />recommendation accordingly. If we are not successful in that endeavor, I would like to remove <br />this item from the agenda. You will also note that this is under the consent agenda. Therefore, it <br />is likely we will have to remove this from the consent agenda to consider it separately given the <br />problems we are experiencing. <br />JRH:kpv <br />Enclosure <br />Page 138 <br />
