Pelican Bay City Council reviews grant consortium, credit card program at June 23 meeting

The Pelican Bay City Council met June 23 for a regularly scheduled meeting to consider two items, but no official decisions were recorded and minutes have not yet been published. The meeting was open to the public and included discussion of a multi-year grant partnership with Tarrant County and a proposed city credit card program.

Tarrant County grant consortium

The council was slated to decide on participating in a Tarrant County consortium for the Community Development Block Grant, Home Investment Partnership, and Emergency Solutions Grant for fiscal years 2027-2029. These programs provide federal funding for affordable housing, community facilities, and emergency shelter services. If the city joins, it would receive a share of the grant allocations through the county’s application process. No vote on the item has been recorded.

City credit card program

The council also considered a credit card program agreement with UMB Bank. The program would allow the city to use credit cards for official purchases, requiring designated employees to make transactions. As part of the proposal, the council was asked to appoint Kathleen Rice as the official recordkeeper for the program. The agenda did not specify the card limits or the number of cardholders. Minutes are expected to show whether the council approved or tabled the item.

No upcoming meetings

As of July 5, the city has not scheduled any public meetings for the next two weeks. Residents are encouraged to check the city’s official website for future notices.
