Resolution 2015 -1
Citizens' Advisory Commission for Industrial Development
A Resolution to Provide Infrastructure Funding to Area 30 Career Center
WHEREAS: The Citizens' Advisory Commission for Industrial Development has funds available
to help fund needed infrastructure projects within the city of Greencastle.
WHEREAS: The Area 30 Career Center offers programs to students in all of our county schools,
as well as adults.
WHEREAS: Several of their programs have a dramatic impact on specific technology and skills
certification that help to fill local industrial workforce needs.
WHEREAS: Area 30 has successfully secured four grants, and a significant donation of robots
from Heartland Automotive, for the acquisition of equipment to enhance this teaching of their
students.
WHEREAS: The above mentioned successes have caused a significant increase in the electrical
needs in the facility that Area 30 had not budgeted for.
The Citizens' Advisory Commission for Industrial Development will donate $50,000 to Area 30
to cover the cost of the needed power upgrades at the facility.
Passed and adopted by the Citizens' Advisory Commission for Industrial Development this 12`
day of January, 2015. Upon passage by this body a similar resolution will be sent to the
Greencastle Common Council for final approval.
