The city of Hastings will contract with the South Central Economic Development District for administration of a $217,000 Community Development Block Grant award it has received on behalf of a local business.
Gathered Monday at the City Building for their first regular June meeting, members of the Hastings City Council voted 7-0 to approve a professional services/consultant agreement with SCEDD for grant administration. Councilwoman Jeniffer Beahm didn’t attend the meeting.
