The City’s Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee today approved funding for applications to the Rural Community-Building Grants Program.
The City’s Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee today approved funding for applications to the Rural Community-Building Grants Program. The program supports rural community improvement projects undertaken by non-profit organizations.
The five projects approved today would receive a total of $63,200.
The City will continue to accept grant applications until the annual budget is fully allocated. Please consult the grant program guidelines for information on how to apply.
The Committee also approved a zoning amendment to increase the permitted size of an event space proposed as an on-farm diversified use within an existing building northwest of Richardson Side Road and Huntmar Drive. The building houses a cider processing operation and farm stand, and the applicant proposes to operate an associated event space within the building. The amendment would retain an Agricultural parent zoning and would provide site-specific relief to increase the permitted size of the proposed place of assembly.
Recommendations from today’s meeting will rise to Council on Wednesday, March 12.
