CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING DONATIONS AND
GRANTS TO THE CITY DURING THE 1sT QUARTER OF 2009
Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to consider acceptance of donations and
grants made to the City during January, February, and March of 2009.
Histol"l
Minnesota State statute 465.03 requires that the City accept a grant or devise of
real or personal property and maintain such property for the benefit of its citizens
in accordance with the terms prescribed by the donor. In addition to being a
legal requirement, this resolution encourages transparency in government and
accountability.
Current Circumstances
A resolution has been prepared that identifies the donations and grants that were
received during the 1 st quarter of 2009 and the terms in which they were
presented. If a donation or grant was accepted under separate resolution, it has
not been included in this current list. While it is certainly our intent to include all
donations and grants for the 1st quarter of 2009, we recognize that we may have
inadvertently missed some. Those will be addressed in subsequent resolutions.
Conclusion
Staff is requesting that the Council accept the donations and grants received.
Staff intends to seek Council acceptance of donations and grants each quarter
during the year.
This agenda item allows City Council to publicly recognize the donations and
grants made to the City in the interest of transparency.
Certain donations and grants and their corresponding expenditures are reflected
in the annual budget due to their recurring nature, i.e. Clean Up Day grant.
Acceptance of additional donations and grants may result in additional or
offsetting expenditures depending on the terms prescribed by the donor.
1. Approve the resolution accepting donations and grants received by the City
during the 1st quarter of 2009 as presented.
2. Delay action if the Council requires additional information.
Alternative #1 - Motion and second to adopt the resolution to accept donations
and grants received by the City during January, February, and March of 2009 as
pre7nted.
