Warrenton approves $8,000 one-time donation to Agape Community Outreach
Summary
The Board of Aldermen unanimously approved Bill 57-25, authorizing a one-time $8,000 donation to Agape Community Outreach. City Administrator Brandy Walters said staff reviewed the budget and were "comfortable with a one-time donation of $8,000."
The Warrenton Board of Aldermen voted unanimously 5–0, with one member absent, to adopt Bill 57-25, an ordinance authorizing a one-time donation agreement with Agape Community Outreach.
City Administrator Brandy Walters told the board staff compared budgeted amounts to actual spending and recommended a single $8,000 contribution. "We are comfortable with a one-time donation of $8,000," Walters said when presenting the item.
The ordinance received first and second readings during the meeting before the roll-call vote. Chair (speaker 2) recognized council members who moved and seconded the readings; the recorded vote was 5 in favor, 0 opposed, 1 absent.
Brandy Walters also relayed a brief anecdote from a community volunteer to underscore local need: a 10-year-old whose birthday fundraiser yielded $200 in food for the pantry, an example Walters said illustrates community support for hunger relief.
The ordinance authorizes the mayor and city staff to finalize an agreement with Agape Community Outreach. The board took no additional budget action beyond passage of the ordinance; implementation relies on existing city funds already identified in the staff report.
The board moved on after passage; the ordinance will appear in city records as Bill 57-25.
