Board requires proof of payment from the applicant's own account before mural reimbursement, 6-0
The board voted 6-0 to adopt a revised payment verification rule: proof of payment, such as canceled checks, must come from the applicant's account, a measure the minutes say "is intended to ensure that businesses meet their matching payment obligations." Earlier, on June 10, a transfer of $4,000 of the remaining mural grant money to the operations account was proposed to buy plexiglass and metal for the art pad displays; the minutes record no vote on it. On July 8 staff said the current $30,000 mural allocation would cover only half of one thermoplastic crosswalk.[1][2][3]
