Introduction:
At its meeting of May 1, there will be a presentation of a grant from CenterPoint Energy.

Earlier this year, the City was notified that it is the recipient of a $2500 Community
Partnership Grant from CenterPoint Energy. The $2500 has been awarded for use by the
Police Department for the purchase of two movable solar power interactive driver
feedback signs. These signs are placed along roadways and tell ongoing drivers their
vehicles speed, and serve as a reminder to obey the posted speed limit.
Mark Spanton of CenterPoint has requested the opportunity to make the presentation of
the grant at a City Council meeting.
Relationship to Visioning:
This supports Goal D — Maintain, Improve, and Create Strong Partnerships with Other
Public and Private Entities.

Receive the grant; no action by the Council is necessary.
