The Grants Administrator assists City departments in identifying outside grant sources to fund specific, identified needs in the City. Once grants are applied for and awarded, the Administrator assists in tracking expenditure of funds and making timely financial and progress reports.
 
A class for city employees in Internet use and the grants application process is being developed and will be taught on an on-going basis.
