District 1 City Councilman Mario Bravo's latest council consideration request comes less than a month after the city approved grants for businesses owners affected by construction around the St. Mary's Strip and other zones.
On Monday, Bravo filed a council consideration request that, if ultimately approved by the entire council, would reward city contractors for completing projects ahead of schedule. "Delayed city construction projects have for too long hurt our local businesses," Bravo said in a statement."This is the next step toward making government more efficient and getting city projects delivered on time with minimal disruption."
So far, four council members — Jalen Mckee-Rodriguez, Teri Castillo, John Courage and Melissa Cabello Havrda — have signed on to support Bravo's CCR.
