These gifts have been in the form of both materials and monies. <br /> When staff is notified of a potential donation, they first make a determination of whether <br /> to recommend acceptance based on the suitability of the item for the city. A request for <br /> authorization is then forwarded to the City Council. <br /> POLICY <br /> The following is the City of Roseville's policy regarding the acceptance of donations: <br /> ■ Minnesota Statute requires all donations to be officially accepted by the <br /> City Council. <br /> ■ The staff will not solicit donations. <br /> ■ Donors are informed that no conditions or promises of future favorable city <br /> action on their behalf may be attached to the gift, <br /> FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS <br /> Approved donations for budgeted items will result in a budget reduction. Items or <br /> monies for items or programs not budgeted will not be purchased or conducted unless <br /> the Council approves the donations. <br /> STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br /> Staff recommends acceptance of these donations. <br /> REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br /> Motion authorizing acceptance of the following donations: <br /> DONOR ITEM Value <br /> B-Dale Club Monetary for Villa Park Play Area $1,000 <br /> Golden K Kiwanis Club Monetary for Soap Box Derby $1,000 <br /> Golden K Kiwanis Club Coat Racks for Skating Center $ 550 <br /> North Suburban Gavel Assoc.
