Commission formalizes accounting for Bridal Coalition grant
Summary
Commission created budget lines for an $80,000 allocation to the Bridal Coalition, described as a donation treated like a grant this year; the mayor and staff noted the funding is not guaranteed next year and the organization should continue seeking grants.
The commission approved budget changes to create the line items necessary for an $80,000 allocation to the Bridal Coalition, described in the meeting materials as a donation to be accounted for as a grant this year. The chair noted the materials included a high-level budget and the mayor said the group should continue to pursue outside funding because the county's allocation is not a guaranteed recurring amount.
The mayor and staff indicated the money will be monitored on a quarterly basis and reminded commissioners that if the nonprofit loses the grant or the funds are reduced next year the county would not be obligated to continue funding. The motion to accept the amendment was approved by voice vote.
