    Resolution

    BY TITLE ONLY: Amending the 2026 Economic Development Division Operating Budget by $XXX,XXX, approving program materials, and authorizing the Economic Development Division to administer a Williamson Street Business Support Program.

    Mikolajewski went through the memo that described an outline for the program followed by questions and suggestions from members. Harris and Hacker expressed concerns about the immediacy of the needs of the businesses. Harris also expressed concerns about a business accepting funding and closing soon after. Pritchett suggested the application be simple to not deter applicants. Hacker also suggested a clear and simple application and including clear examples of what documentation will satisfy requirement of showing a loss of sales. Martinez-Rutherford asked if it was possible to release the application after Finance Committee approval. Lentz asked if there is a possibility of there being a second round of funding. Hacker recommended that BERC meet early to approve the final program. A motion was made by Martinez-Rutherford and seconded by Hacker to return to Lead with the Recommendation to Approve a program like the memo with the following inclusions: 1. If possible, releasing the application early, after Finance Committee approval, with the understanding that it does not have Council approval yet. This would be to expedite the application process. 2. Make the application materials clear and simple to fill out. 3. Include clear examples of what documentation will satisfy requirement of showing a loss of sales. 4. Provide technical assistance sessions to applicants. The motion passed unanimously by voice vote.
