II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Transportation Element to the Comprehensive: Energy Efficiency Grant
Staff is seeking full Council approval to enter into a grant agreement with the Department of Commerce for
$69,500 in funding awarded through the Energy Efficiency Through Transportation Planning Grant
(stimulus funds).
These grants funds will be used by the City to complete Optional Task A: Calculate Pedestrian and Bike
Levels of Services outlined in the Fehr Peers contract which was approved by the City Council on
February 1, 2010 (see Transportation Committee minutes dated January 19, 2010). Since the amount
charges for this optional task were not included in the original contract, staff will return to Committee with
a supplemental agreement to the Fehr Peers contract relative to this work when applicable.
This grant fund does require a match, and the City is able to apply the Fehr Peers contract funds as its
matching funds. No new monies are required for this grant. This project was one of eight chosen state wide.
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO MARCH 8 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
