Director Roberts said this is operating only. The Council has the ability to designate if we want to find something for 2026. We put into the budget $900,000 roughly for low income to moderate income housing. Board Member Lewis said are there any projects being proposed currently? Assistant Manager Nessen said Executive Director Cobabe put out $800,000 that people can apply for. That money is meant for people doing low to moderate income housing, like Habitat for Humanity. Director Roberts said I have seen entities use the RDA money as seed money to help make improvements to a facility in the form of a grant. RDA funds are limited, and it is not hard to go through $1.7 million, but there are options.
Motion by Board Member Vance to adopt the resolution. Motion seconded by Board Member Rohde. Roll Call Vote: Board Member Estep – yes, Board Member Lewis – yes, Board Member Rohde – yes, Board Member Vance – yes, Board Member Westergard – yes. Motion approved.
