CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: OCTOBER 26, 2015
AGENDA#: 5G
PREPARED BY: CATHERINE ASMUS, ACCOUNTANT
PRESENTER: DON URAM, FINANCE DIRECTOR
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING DONATIONS
AND GRANTS TO THE CITY DURING THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2015
DISCUSSION: Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to consider acceptance of donations
and grants made to the City during the 3rd quarter of 2015 and to authorize
city staff to amend the budget for any additional revenues received and
expenditures that may be incurred to comply with grant agreement and
restricted donations.
History
Minnesota State Statute 465.03 requires that the City accept a grant or
demise 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 3rd quarter of 2015 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 3rd quarter of 2015, 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 and authorize them to amend the budget. Staff intends to seek
Council acceptance of donations and grants each quarter during the year
and amend the budget when appropriate.
ISSUES: This agenda item allows City Council to publicly recognize the donations
and grants made to the City in the interest of transparency.
FINANCIAL Certain donations and grants and their corresponding expenditures are
IMPACT: reflected in the annual budget due to their recurring nature. Acceptance of
additional donations and grants may result in additional or offsetting
expenditures depending on the terms prescribed by the donor.
ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the resolution accepting donations and grants received by the
City during the 3rd quarter of 2015 as part of the consent agenda.
2. Delay action if the Council requires additional information.
RECOMMENDED Alternative #1.
