Bay Village police announce $15,000 donation to Amy Mihaljevic Fund; appropriation to be amended
Summary
Police Chief Robert Gillespie reported a $15,000 donation from Ed Kuchar to the Amy Mihaljevic Fund; Finance Director Jim Milton prepared an amended appropriation ordinance to reflect the gift and correct a prior transposition error.
Police Chief Robert Gillespie told the committee that after media coverage of the Amy race in 2024, a letter from Ed Kuchar resulted in an initial $7,000 offer; the contribution was increased and Mr. Kuchar agreed to donate $15,000 to assist with recent costs to the fund.
Chief Gillespie described Mr. Kuchar as "one of the nicest people in the world" and said the donation will help cover new expenses. Finance Director Jim Milton said he prepared an amended appropriation ordinance to reflect the donation and to correct a previous transposition in an earlier appropriation measure; that ordinance is on the Regular Meeting agenda.
