Holley trustees rescind consultant contract, decline Smart Growth consultant motion and table EV grant application
Trustees rescinded a prior motion to hire Bergmann to assist with two grant applications (BOA Round 3 and Smart Growth Comprehensive Planning) at $105 per hour. The rescission motion was approved unanimously at the Aug. 9 meeting.

A separate motion to authorize Mayor Bower to hire Barton & Loguidice to apply for the Smart Growth Community Planning and Zoning Grant Program (a $60,000 grant with a 10 percent local match) was presented but failed (minutes record 'MOTION DIED'). Trustees also considered hiring Barton & Loguidice to prepare an application for the NYSDEC Municipal Zero‑Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Grant at a $1,500 fee; that motion was tabled, per the meeting record.

Minutes do not show additional details about why the motions failed or were tabled; the board may revisit grant consultant decisions in future meetings.
