The Cleveland City Council will vote today on a resolution earmarking funds for infrastructure work at Cleveland State Community College.
The regularly scheduled meeting will be at 3 p.m. at the Municipal Building, following its 1 p.m. work session.
The proposed $250,000 funding will be for projects related to construction of a new building at the community college, including sidewalk construction and storm water management.
The Bradley County Commission recently voted to approve $250,000 in funding for the community college.
During its last meeting, Dr. Bill Seymour, president of CSCC, told Council members he is seeking $2.5 million in matching funds for the construction of a new building at the college. The funds will be used to build a new $20 million health and sciences building as well as a $5 million renovation of the Mary T. Barker Humanities Building. Earlier this year, included in the state budget were $25.5 million in funds to be allocated to CSCC. The community college was the only one in Tennessee to receive such funding. The projects are the first major ones since the community college opened some 50 years ago.
