Rieth Defends Grant Efforts Amid Late Filing Questions
Council debates a $1.8 million grant loss with Rieth insisting the city complied with all steps while noting late filing may have doomed the effort. Proctor questions performance, voting against a confidence motion as doubts linger over date targets and handling of the DEA grant process.
City council splits over abstention and future projects
Rieth, the city manager, oversees the consulting engineers as council debates a confidence motion. Councilor Hall abstains citing time, with Simanskey slated to raise the abstention at the Jan 11 meeting. A Gulf of Mexico sewage plant upgrade begins by April 30, while an effluent spray irrigation plan is dropped from the grant request and funded locally. Venice remains 24th on the DEA grant priority list, with only top ten funded this year.
