Council adds $2,500 for 250th Recreation Commission activities
Summary
The council approved adding $2,500 to the budget for the 250th Recreation Commission to support planning, deposits and commemorative materials for next summer's events.
Richmond — The Town Council voted to add $2,500 to the budget for the 250th Recreation Commission to support planning and early expenses for next summer's commemoration.
A councilor who serves as chair of the 250th Recreation Commission asked that the line item, omitted from earlier drafts, be added to cover memorabilia, deposits and other start-up costs. The commission noted the Washington County Fairgrounds had offered space with no cost for some events, but that deposits and promotional materials would be needed.
The council asked whether state funding or grants might offset costs; the mover said state support was expected but not guaranteed, and historical-society members were actively pursuing grants. Councilors approved the $2,500 addition by roll call.
Ending: The Recreation Commission will begin planning and will submit additional details to finance staff if more funding is requested.
