Mr. Arness noted that the two aforementioned projects are to be financed by
the Department of Commerce, Economic Development Administration, Drought Assist-
ance Program and, as the total project cost will exceed the EDA Grant/Loan of
$1,900,000 by approximately $175,000-$200,000, it will be necessary to submit
a document assuring EDA that the overrun costs will be funded by the City of
Redding. A recap illustrating the anticipated overrun costs was submitted
to Council. It is recommended that Resolution No. 77-237 be adopted,
giving the assurance required by EDA.
