Members of the City Council discussed a range of matters at their Dec. 10 Study Session. Discussions included changes to the Community Assistance Grant Funding (CAGF) program alongside a list of strategic priorities for the year ahead.
The city’s CAGF program aims to provide needed social services to members of the community. The program was initially created decades ago, and so may require updating to allocate funds more efficiently and better reflect the needs of society at present. In late 2023, a report was presented to the Council Social Services Ad Hoc Committee looking at the role the CAGF program plays in delivering social services. Accordingly, the Study Session discussion built on these recommendations to propose further changes.
