Council declines cash donation to 4‑H but records volunteer labor contribution
Summary
Council moved to decline a monetary donation to 4‑H this year but acknowledged a local volunteer (Chance) is donating substantial wiring/time in lieu of city funds; council will document the in‑kind labor.
The council reviewed a request for a monetary donation to a local 4‑H project. Members noted that a local volunteer (Chance) is providing significant labor and that the city did not budget for a cash contribution.
A motion was made to decline a monetary donation while recording Chance's donated labor as the city's contribution. Council approved the motion; staff will draft the appropriate paperwork acknowledging the volunteer labor and will consider any future monetary support during regular budget planning.
Councilors said the labor donation appears to exceed the typical small monetary contributions made previously and directed staff to reflect the in‑kind support in the record.
