| 2005 Feb Changes to NRP spending | | Date Created: Feb 19, 2005, 03:54 PM |
[NOTE: adopted at Feb 21, 2005 TNA Board meeting. See Feb 2005 minutes].
Proposed to TNA Board at Feb 2005 meeting:
Resolution 1:Basketball Court
The Tangletown Neighborhood Association accepts the Tangletown NRP
Oversight/Steering Committee?s recommendation to implement a plan
modification whereby:
$4,297.82 would be transferred from Business, Goal 1, objective 1,
strategy1 Business Façade Improvement Grant Program to Parks and
Public Spaces, Goal 1, Objective 1,Strategy 1 Fuller Park
Basketball Court and directs its chair to sign any agreements or
contractual documentation that is result of this action
The board understands that this action is to place additional funds
in the Basketball Court strategy to enable the Minneapolis Parks
and Recreation Board to perform a complete overhaul of the
basketball court at Fuller Park rather than the resurfacing of the
court outlined in contract C-20034.
Resolution 2: Fuller Park Balcony Railing
The Tangletown Neighborhood Association accepts the Tangletown NRP
Oversight/Steering Committee?s recommendation to implement a plan
modification whereby:
$1,713.00 would be transferred from Business, Goal 1, objective 1,
strategy1 Business Façade Improvement Grant Program to Parks and
Public Spaces, Goal 1, Objective 2, Strategy 1 Fuller Park Balcony
Railing and directs its chair to sign any agreements or contractual
documentation that is result of this action
The board understands that this action is to place additional funds
in the railing strategy to allow for a redesigned solution for the
Fuller Park balcony railing and will result in an amendment to
contract C-20035
Rationale:
The Business Façade Improvement Grant Program generated more than
$150,000 in actual business façade improvements with $52,064.26 of
Tangletown NRP dollars spent. During the fourth year of this
program, no businesses requested funding. The contract was
terminated leaving $17,935.74 to be redirected to other strategies
in the Phase I Action Plan. Since the time of the original
contracts for the basketball court and the balcony railing,
September 2003, the Park Board has deemed the solutions prescribed
to be unsatisfactory and not cost effective and has made new
recommendations to the neighborhood.
