Summary

The council received a $7,500 donation from the Fire Relief Association earmarked for the Fire Department Equipment Fund; minutes record a resolution to be presented next month and a formal resolution (Res. No. 06032026) accepting the donation appears in the record dated June 3, 2026.

Council members announced receipt of a $7,500 check from the Fire Relief Association designated for the Fire Department Equipment Fund at the May 6 meeting; the minutes note a resolution would be prepared for the next council meeting to accept the donation formally. The announcement was made during the petitions and communications portion of the meeting and Gene Skaj noted ongoing work with the accountant on audit matters linked to the relief association funds.

A formal resolution labelled "RESOLUTION NO. 06032026 A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING A DONATION TO THE CITY" appears in the meeting record and specifies the donation amount ($7,500) and that funds are to be used for the Fire Department Equipment Fund. The resolution text cites Minnesota Statutes Section 465.03 as authority to accept gifts to the city and is dated and presented as passed by the council on June 3, 2026, consistent with the minutes' note that formal acceptance would follow at a later meeting.
