The Mexico City Council tabled a vote Tuesday on whether to accept a $400,000 Missouri Main Street Connection grant for downtown streetscape improvements.
Council member Ruth Pendleton raised questions about the city's matching-fund obligation of $133,000. The item will be brought back at the July 14 meeting after city staff provides a revised budget analysis.
The proposed project would add decorative lighting, benches, and new sidewalk pavers along Washington Street from Love to Clark.
