Pateros approves $1,000 contribution to Brewster Bridgeport Pateros senior center
Summary
Council voted unanimously to contribute $1,000 to the Brewster Bridgeport Pateros Community Senior Community Center for operations. Councilmembers debated whether a larger amount was appropriate given relative population sizes.
Councilmember Mike Harding moved to contribute $1,000 to the Brewster Bridgeport Pateros Community Senior Community Center for operations; the motion was seconded by Chantel Poole and carried unanimously. Councilmember Holly Bange asked whether the city could give more; Poole said Pateros' population of 665 compared with Brewster's near 2,500 made $1,000 a fair contribution. Fire Chief Heen noted nonprofits face many challenges.
The minutes record the donation amount and the rationale expressed by councilmembers but do not list a formal funding source within the city's budget documents in the minutes. The action is recorded as an operational contribution rather than a multi-year commitment.
