The council heard a combined hearing on a Transportation Division grant for an East Downtown 200 South transit hub (about $400,000 according to one speaker), a FEMA Assistance to Firefighters grant for eight extrication tools and eight battery-powered ventilation fans, and a Justice Court grant for an online platform for initial steps in class B and C misdemeanor and infraction cases. One speaker opposed the transit hub, saying the money would be better spent on $1 fares. The council closed the hearing and referred the items to a future consent agenda.
