Council approves up to $1,600 in additional Read Ready funds for block party and little library
Summary
Council Member Okura asked for up to $1,600 more for the Read Ready program to buy $50 gift cards for a block party and add a little library at the community center; the council approved the expenses 5-0.
Council Member Okura told the council the city cleanup is scheduled for May 11–18, Memorial Day parade on May 25 and Family Day on June 6, and asked to allocate up to $1,600 in additional funds to the Read Ready program. Okura said the money would purchase $50 gift cards for distribution at a block party and fund a small 'little library' at the community center: "requested to spend additional funds for Read Ready program up to $1,600 (balance)."
A motion to approve the expenses (Hartman/Okura) passed by a 5-0 vote. The transcript does not record a line-item budget code for the allocation; Finance Director/Treasurer Edgley said the city is working on the overall budget and is about 75% through the fiscal year.
