Council approves creation of restricted Moscow Police Department donation account for $24,818.35
Summary
The council authorized a restricted fund balance to hold donations for the Moscow Police Department after staff reported the city received a $24,818.35 estate gift; the resolution passed on a motion by Councilor Evan Emmons and a second by Councilor Sandra.
Bill Belknap, presenting the item, said the city had received a check "in the amount of $24,818.35" from an estate that named the Moscow Police Department as a beneficiary and requested authorization to create a restricted fund balance to hold this and future police donations. Belknap said the gift contained no spending stipulations; the police chief would later propose any specific uses through the normal budget appropriation process.
Councilor Evan Emmons moved to approve the resolution establishing a Moscow Police Department donation account with a restricted fund balance; Councilor Sandra seconded. The mayor called the roll and the council recorded affirmative votes from the named councilors present; the resolution was approved. Staff said future expenditures from the account would be brought forward in budget requests for council approval.
