Village OKs $5,000 tourism reimbursement grant for Rotary Oktoberfest
Summary
Trustees approved a $5,000 tourism reimbursement for the Jacksonville Rotary Club’s Oktoberfest; village clerk/treasurer Mindy Olson said the program reimburses qualifying event expenses rather than providing direct operating support.
The Village of South Jacksonville approved a $5,000 tourism grant on Aug. 22 to reimburse the Jacksonville Rotary Club for eligible costs tied to its Oktoberfest event.
President Richard Samples presented the application and Village Clerk and Treasurer Mindy Olson clarified the program’s terms. "It is a reimbursement grant for items relating to the event," Olson said. Trustee J.W. Coleman moved to approve the grant and Trustee Tom Jordan seconded; roll call was unanimous.
Minutes do not specify which expenses will be reimbursed or whether the Rotary Club supplied a project budget during the meeting. The clerk indicated the grant operates as reimbursement, and trustees approved the award as presented. Staff will issue reimbursement instructions and follow the village’s grant administration procedures.
