Vernonia staff to return revised donation policy for council adoption
Summary
Staff presented a draft donation policy and sought council consensus to return a resolution at the next meeting; councilors asked staff to add limits on permitted uses and a budget line for donations.
Staff presented a draft donation policy at the Jan. 5 council meeting and asked for a general consensus to return a formal resolution for adoption at the next meeting. Staff said the draft draws on examples from peer cities and that, if council agrees, staff will return a cleaned-up draft with a resolution for formal consideration.
Councilors discussed common issues to include in the policy such as prohibited uses (for example, political activity) and asked that staff propose a budget line item to fund potential donations. A councilor offered to provide examples of do's and don'ts for the policy. Staff agreed to revise the draft and bring it back with a proposed resolution.
