Arcadia seeks grant, notes late mayor
The Arcadia council approved applying for a $1,200 state grant for a new election computer during a special meeting begun with a moment of silence for former mayor Rob Reichwein.
Mayor Kevin Mayzek began last Wednesday’s special meeting with a moment for Reichwein, who was Arcadia’s mayor from 2016 through 2022. Reichwein died Dec. 23.
The $1,200 for a computer and information technology support for the device is being sought from a state Election Security Subgrant. The deadline for submitting the 24-page application and list of regulations was Dec. 31.
The council also approved a $23,000 additional payment for the city’s internal drainage project.
“For a $7 million project,” said city clerk Angela Berg, “a $23,000 change order is pretty good.”
