ZEPHYRHILLS — Main Street Zephyrhills staff and board members say the organization will close if city council members reduce an annual city grant from $50,000 to $30,000.
Supporters of Main Street Zephyrhills appeared before the Community Redevelopment Agency this week to oppose reducing the Main Street grant by $20,000. City council members, acting as the CRA, voted unanimously to go forward with plans to put the money toward hiring a CRA director but did not discuss funding for the director’s salary.
Interim City Manager Steve Spina has proposed hiring a CRA director with a salary of $55,000.
