Belinda and Mike Morris are the principals of Green Tech Park. Both the Site Assessment Grant and the Site Remediation Grant programs are administered by the Indiana Finance Authority as part of the Indiana Brownfields Program. The grants must be submitted by the political subdivision on behalf of a property located within its jurisdiction. Both of these sites have participated in the Citywide Assessment Program that we have been administering for the last few years. They are good projects and the grant funds will allow them to further develop these properties. I respectfully request your approval of this Resolution Sincerely, ~- Ann E.
