Human Relations Committee approves $250 contribution to MLK Holiday Commission
Summary
The committee voted unanimously to approve a $250 contribution to the MLK Holiday Commission to support the Jan. 19 event; the motion was made by Tia and seconded by a subcommittee member, with members agreeing funds are available this fiscal year.
The Bismarck Human Relations Committee voted to provide a $250 contribution to the city’s MLK Holiday Commission to support its Jan. 19 observance.
Committee member Tia moved "to support them for the $250," and a committee member seconded the motion. Committee members discussed the timing and confirmed that the money could be used from the current fiscal-year allocation so the commission could access the funds in advance of the January event.
After brief discussion about logistics and timing, the committee voted in favor. The chair called for the vote and members responded in the affirmative.
Members noted the MLK Holiday Commission typically allows committee participation and a booth at the event; the committee’s planned contribution is intended to maintain that tradition and support the commission’s programming for Jan. 19. The committee will record the contribution in its fiscal reporting and revisit any additional funding requests at a later meeting.
Motion details: the motion to provide $250 was moved by Tia and seconded by a committee member; the motion passed by unanimous voice vote on record during the meeting.
