Moberly City Council briefly held an open business meeting Wednesday, May 26 prior to its scheduled close session gathering at 6 p.m. for the purpose of authorizing the city to apply for a Missouri Historic Preservation Fund Grant to help support a new historic preservation plan for Moberly.
City Manager Brian Crane said the special public meeting at City Hall was quickly arranged upon him learning that a state deadline to receive such applications would occur prior to the council s June 8 business meeting. Such plans have an estimated cost of $30,000 said Crane and providing that Moberly s application meets deadline, he is expects it would gain approval for grant monies to reimburse the city for nearly two-thirds of the historical plan s total cost.
