Topeka Together's fireworks funding request for July 4 tabled pending fund search
Summary
Topeka Together requested funds for a Fourth of July fireworks display. Clerk-Treasurer Lea Parks said $1,200 was available in the Promotions fund; the council asked staff to look for other funds and tabled the request until the next meeting.
Tim Cleveland, representing Topeka Together, asked the council for funding for a July 4 fireworks display. Clerk-Treasurer Lea Parks said $1,200 was available from the Promotions fund. The council asked staff to search other funds and tabled the request for consideration at a future meeting.
The motion connected to this item was recorded in the minutes with a vote notation that included an abstention on a related motion (the minutes note an abstention by Council Member Marlynn Mast on one vote), but the fireworks funding request itself was left for further staff work and a subsequent council decision. No specific alternate funding sources or dollar amounts beyond the $1,200 Promotions balance were recorded in the minutes.
The item will return to the agenda for the council's review after staff identifies additional potential funding sources.
