Hogansville narrows eligibility and adds caps in revised Non‑Profit Funding policy
Summary
Assistant City Manager Oasis Nichols presented edits to the Non‑Profit Funding policy that reduce eligibility to one year of operation, add a one‑time payment option for urgent requests, impose a $3,000 monthly disbursement cap, and require six‑month post‑expenditure reporting; council approved sending the revised policy to the Regular Meeting for action.
Assistant City Manager Oasis Nichols summarized proposed revisions to Hogansville’s Non‑Profit Funding policy and said the changes reflect council guidance. Key edits include lowering the minimum organizational eligibility from two consecutive years to one year, adding a one‑time payment option for small or urgent requests, instituting a monthly disbursement cap of $3,000 after consulting finance, setting application and renewal deadlines for April 1 to align with the annual budget, and requiring a six‑month progress report after funds are expended and reporting prior to the next application.
Nichols said she added the word “annual” before “budget” throughout the policy and request form for clarity; council members agreed with the changes and placed the policy on the Regular Meeting agenda for formal approval.
The work session did not adopt the policy; formal approval is expected at the Regular Meeting.
