ponations.txt <br /> From: Eisenschenk, Amber [mailto:aeisenschenk @lmc.org] <br /> Sent: Monday, August 08, 2011 2:55 PM <br /> To: Terry Maurer <br /> subject: LMC-Playground Donation <br /> Good afternoon Terry, <br /> one other thing the council should consider with regards to donating the <br /> playground equipment to another organization is any liability that may result <br /> if there is an injury. Consulting with your LMCIT representative or city <br /> attorney can give you a better understanding of what the city should be <br /> worried about and whether a liability agreement or other restrictions should <br /> be required from the other organization. <br /> The League's Public Purpose Expenditures memo discusses the right of a city to <br /> make expenditures such as donations. Please consult with your city attorney <br /> regarding what it the best mechanism for getting the playground equipment to <br /> the organization by creating a contract or by selling it for nominal <br /> consideration ($1) . <br /> sincerely, <br /> Amber Eisenschenk I Research Law clerk <br /> Tel : 651-281-1227 Fax: 651-215-4127 <br /> aeisenschenk @lmc.org I www.lmc.org <br /> League of Minnesota Cities <br /> 14S university Ave. west I St. Paul , MN 55103 <br /> This response is intended to convey general information and should not be <br /> taken as legal advice or as a substitute for competent legal guidance. consult <br /> your city attorney for advice regarding specific situations. <br /> Patrick Klaers <br /> City Administrator <br /> City of Arden Hills <br /> 1245 W.
