We will pay for paving and fencing, but landscaping is listed specifically as ineligible. Landscaping is often required as a condition for obtaining a permit, so why is it not eligible?
Paving is directly related to the operation of the new building, thus eligible. However, the paving will be limited to operational functions and staff parking, but will not include large areas for community purposes. For projects that don’t involve new construction, we will not re-pave paved areas unless such an activity was fully justified in the application as critical to the implementation of the project. Pavement damaged during construction or renovation can be repaired and charged to the grant. Fencing and landscaping is not eligible. Top Station signage, station flagpole, station traffic control systems – are they eligible expenses? They may be required by code and considered non-operational items, but what is a fire station without a flagpole? Like fencing, a flagpole is not operational, thus would not be eligible.
