Summary
The commission accepted a $1,000 grant from the Eastern West Virginia Community Foundation’s Erin Michelle Pancake Memorial Fund designated for the Hampshire County bridal shelter; the grant letter included standard tax-exempt-use restrictions and an acknowledgement requirement.
The Hampshire County Commission voted to accept a $1,000 grant from the Eastern West Virginia Community Foundation’s Erin Michelle Pancake Memorial Fund designated for the county’s bridal (animal) shelter.
Clerk read the foundation’s letter describing the award and terms, which stated the grant funds must be used for tax-exempt purposes, may not be used for political or lobbying activity, and requested public acknowledgement recognizing the Hampshire County Community Foundation and the Erin Michelle Pancake Memorial Fund; the letter listed Rebecca Knight as a contact for questions.
Commissioners discussed waiting for the shelter representative (Miss Connolly) to be present in case any conditions needed clarification, but reconvened at 09:30 and approved accepting the funds without further delay. The motion to accept the grant passed by voice vote.
The commission did not discuss any conditions altering the grant’s terms, and the clerk recorded acceptance for use by the county shelter. Any further reporting or accounting will follow the grant’s stated terms and the county’s financial procedures.
