On WCOA, Pensacola City Councilwoman Jennifer Brahier discussed whether the city should help buy a former Pathways for Change building for REAP.
Here is the recommendation: “That City Council award the contract agreement for RFP No. 22-051 for Community Development Block Grant-Coronavirus (CDBG-CV) Homeless Housing Acquisition/Rehabilitation Project to Re-Entry Alliance Pensacola, Inc. in the maximum amount of $370,501. Further, that City Council authorize the Mayor to take the actions necessary to execute and administer the contract agreement consistent with the proposal, contracting documents, and the Mayor’s Executive Powers as granted in the City Charter.”
“We need to make sure that the property is really stable, that there’s a funding source going forward is a real question,” she said.
