Council Discussion:
The City of Napa was authorized to submit an Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC) grant application to the State of California as co-applicant with Heritage Housing Partners for The Crescent project. This project would see to the development of 49 low-income and 47 moderate income deed restricted for-sale units and related sustainable transportation infrastructure. The Council also authorized the Public Works Director to execute an AHSC Implementation, Indemnity and Cooperative Agreement with Napa Valley Community Housing. They will execute all documents necessary to secure AHSC funds for the construction of certain sustainable transportation infrastructure related to the proposed Monarch Landing development.

Consent Calendar:
The City of Napa authorized the purchase of a replacement F-450 Stencil Paint Truck for the Public Works Department. The City Council approved $146,500 to purchase a new truck, given that the current F-450 Stencil Paint Truck has reached its end of life.
