<br />WHEREAS only a limited amount of grant funding is available through the Metropolitan <br />Council's Livable Communities Demonstration Account during each funding cycle and <br />the Metropolitan Council has determined it is appropriate to allocate those scarce grant <br />funds only to eligible projects that would not occur "but for" the availability of <br />Demonstration Account grant funding. <br /> <br />NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that, after appropriate examination and due <br />consideration, the governing body of the City: <br /> <br />1. Finds that it is in the best interests of the City's development goals and priorities for <br />the proposed project to occur at this particular time. <br /> <br />2. Finds that the project component(s) for which Livable Communities Demonstration <br />Account funding is sought: <br /> <br />(a) will not occur solely through private or other public investment within the <br />reasonably foreseeable future; and <br /> <br />(b) will not occur within two years after a grant award unless Livable <br />Communities Demonstration Account funding is made available for this project <br />at this time. <br /> <br />3. Authorizes its Community Development Staff to submit on behalf of the City an <br />application for Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Demonstration Account <br />grant funds for the project component(s) identified in the application, and to execute <br />such agreements as may be necessary to implement the project on behalf of the City. <br /> <br />The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Member <br />Ihlan, and upon a vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: Kough, <br />Ihlan, Schroeder, Maschka and Klausing. <br />and the following voted against the same: none. <br /> <br />WHEREUPON said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted this 20th day of <br />June, 2005.. <br />
