Latest version.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, the City Administrator is delegated
limited authority to accept restricted gifts and donations to the City up to fifty
thousand dollars ($50,000.00), including money gifts, and to appropriate and expend
monies derived from such gifts/donations, without City Council action, provided that:
(1) the gift/donation does not create unbudgeted costs for the City, (2) the gift/donation
is for a program or project that has been approved by the Council in the biennial
or mid-cycle operating or Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget, or by City Council
legislation during the fiscal year, and 3) the gift/donations or proceeds therefrom
are used in accord with restrictions and/or special conditions of the donor.
Notwithstanding the above, the City Administrator is authorized to expend monies derived
from restricted gifts/donations that exceed fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) without
City Council action when the gift has been approved, accepted and appropriated by
City Council resolution provided such expenditure is in accord with any restrictions
or special conditions of donor.
All funds accepted hereunder shall be deposited into the City Treasury. The City Administrator
will provide an annual report to Council on all gifts and donations accepted hereunder
during the previous year.
