Ask LarryAnswer #9Answered August 30, 2026

Does anyone on the City Council actually look at the consequences of taking grant money before staff applies?

Larry says

I have been going to City Council meetings for almost six years and I have not heard that happen. Every grant the city wants to apply for should be reviewed by the Council for the consequences of receiving it, before staff puts the application in.
