Board approves charitable gaming resolution for 11 11 Foundation
Summary
Macomb Township approved a resolution enabling the nonprofit '11 11 Foundation for Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy DU1 Research Funding' to seek a charitable gaming license from the state; township staff confirmed the organization met state application requirements.
The Macomb Township Board of Trustees unanimously approved a resolution Wednesday to allow the nonprofit identified in the packet as the "11 11 Foundation for Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy DU1 Research Funding" to apply to the state for a charitable gaming license.
Township staff explained that local jurisdictions must adopt a resolution for nonprofits to be eligible to conduct charitable gaming (raffles, poker-room fundraising and similar activities) at venues within the local jurisdiction. The presenter told trustees the organization had submitted required bylaws and IRS documentation and that staff recommends approval. Treasurer Joliet moved approval, supported by Trustee Papa; the board then conducted a roll-call vote with all members voting yes and the resolution adopted.
Staff said the local authorization remains in effect indefinitely unless the organization dissolves or its state approval is revoked. The township does not separately track state licensing decisions; the resolution provides the local endorsement required to complete the nonprofit’s state filing.
