Council approves separate fireworks donation account to ringfence funds
Summary
City Secretary Stephanie Sweet told the council the city needs a separate checking account to hold fireworks donations so funds are used only for that purpose; the council authorized creation of the account.
Stephanie Sweet explained that creating a dedicated checking account for fireworks donations would ensure contributions are collected and allocated only for fireworks expenses.
The minutes record the council's action to establish the separate account; no dollar amount for the account's starting balance or ongoing fundraising target is recorded.
Sweet indicated the new account will allow clearer tracking of donations and avoid commingling with general city funds. The council's approval was recorded without dissent.
