Jamestown will receive a $146,795 federal grant to boost domestic violence intervention programs in the city.

The council’s Housing Committee will meet at 6:45 p.m. today in the fourth floor police training room followed by 7 p.m. meetings of the council’s Finance Committee in the mayor’s fourth floor conference room, the Public Safety Committee in the police training room and the Public Works Committee in the Development Department conference room. A council work session follows the committee meetings at 7:30 p.m. in the police training room.

Acceptance of the grant is on the agenda for Monday’s City Council work session. The money will pay for a victims services coordinator within Project Crossroads for a year. The program will also provide funding to the Wellness and Forensic Center to provide training to nurses who want to become certified medical forensic examiners, $30,000 for examinations and follow-up services for domestic violence victims, and $61,500 to purchase a vehicle to transport domestic violence victims.

The city won’t have to contribute any money to participate in the program.

City Council members will discuss two resolutions totaling nearly $250,000 to install security cameras in city-owned parking ramps downtown. The first resolution for $278,910 with Nest Wireless Global of Flushing, N.Y., is for cameras and security lighting upgrades at the Spring and Cherry street parking ramps. The second for $78,770.48 with SHI International Corp. is for cameras, accessories, licensing and support in the same ramps.

The Nest Wireless contract includes cameras in the Spring Street ramp budgeted for $26,540 with another $101,246 for security lighting in the ramp. The Cherry Street ramp work will include $26,360 for cameras and $14,764 for lighting upgrades.

Council members are also being asked to spend $25,000 to do prep work to replace the City Hall roof. The contract is to be awarded to Greenman-Peterson Inc. of Buffalo. Federal stimulus money will be used for this part of the project. Greenman-Peterson will inspect the roof, develop construction documents, help with the bid and award process and perform construction management and inspection.

“The engineering work can be done before the rest of the money for the project is secured, and not hold up the replacement of the roof,” states the staff report accompanying the resolution.

The council will also hear reports on the city’s use of its Affordable Connectivity Grant and a year-end report from Bird Scooters officials about the early operations of the bike and scooter ride-share program.
