Recommendations
• Broadband - reallocate to CP42 - $1,051,020
- Project is unlikely to meet obligation by year end due to contingency on county broadband project and timing
• Street Parklets – reallocate $150,000 to Stephen Leonard • Street Parklets – reallocate $50,000 to Applegate Zoo - Project is contingent on Downtown One Way and will not be obligated by year end
• Stimulus Payments – allocate $9,500 remaining balance to CP42 • Remaining Funds – allocate $7,836 to CP42
