Agenda

Motion:           (Watson/Dorff) Approval of September 12, 2018 Minutes

Passed (13 yes/0 no/2 abstained)

 

Motion:           (Smith/Watson) Recommendation 1810-1 Over the past few

years Ventura Village has passed motions to fund a Neighborhood Priority

Plan (NPP) using Community Participation Plan (CPP) funds.  The City calls

these actions Plan Modifications (Plan Mods).  The City is now processing

these Plan Mods, but has requested that Ventura Village first use funds from

the old Neighborhood Revitalization Program Phase I and Phase II Plans

(NRP) that have been returned to Ventura Village from old contracts.  The

remaining balance will then be taken from the current Ventura Village CPP

contract as originally approved.

 

This motion will clean up all the old balances and bring the Ventura Village

NPP Plan up to date.
