Lake View City Council Schedules Special Meeting Thursday For Grant Applications Review And Officer Hire

The Lake View City Council has scheduled a special meeting for tomorrow (Thursday) evening to discuss proposed grant applications for several projects in the community. The council will convene at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 27 at the Lake View Municipal building and opens with a consideration of the requests for funding from the Sac County Endowment Foundation for improvements at Lake View Mini Golf and green infrastructure installation at the planned site for the Lake View Community Center. Initial cost estimates for the project were around $1.45 million, but construction costs have increased significantly since the architect’s original assessment. The city council pledged $500,000 in tax increment financing (TIF) funds to the project in 2020, and fundraising surpassed $1 million with a $250,000 grant from the Iowa Creative Places program, various smaller grants, and over $200,000 in private donations. Other items on the agenda include a resolution considering hiring a new officer with the Lake View Police Department and a discussion on a valve issue at the Lake View Water Plant. Thursday’s meeting is open to the public.
