DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor & Council Communication (M&C) is to ratify acceptance of a donation of $9,000.00 from the Tanglewood
Elementary School for Overton Park.
During the construction of a new playground in Overton Park, the Tanglewood Elementary School raised funding, via a Go Fund Me account, in
honor of a school custodian who had recently passed away. The purpose of the donation was for the purchase and installation of five picnic
tables.These five new picnic tables have been added to the asset inventory and will be maintained by the Park & Recreation Department.
The donation was not included in the Fiscal Years (FY) 2025 - 2029 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) since it was not anticipated. The
action in this M&C will amend the FY2025 - 2029 Capital Improvement Program as approved in connection with Ordinance 27107-09-2024.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are currently available in the FY21 Playgrounds (South) project within the Special Donations Cap
Projects Fund and upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in
the Special Donations Cap Projects Fund for the FY21 Playgrounds (South) project. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Park & Recreation
Department has the responsibility of verifying the availability of funds.
