SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Valdez Outfitters Shop application materials were reviewed by staff and some issues were noted. The applicant requested an amount in excess of the maximum grant award available. Cost estimates were included in the application however bids for work were not included. The scope of work also includes a roof replacement which does seem to enhance the aesthetics of the building, but might be considered maintenance under grant guidelines. This application warrants further discussion by the commission.
The application is attached for review.
