Motion/2nd move as amended (Bishop/Carter)
(Add funding source –
Special Council Contingency; Reduce approp reflecting
deletion of sales tax and
correct amounts per agreement; Add account numbers; Payout will be on
reimbursement basis).
Action was taken on this bill first on agenda.
Council President reported that One Spark contacted
administration in May requesting funding of $50,000 and to date no
response. He suggested One Spark be a
part of the budget process to alleviate the Library being sole funding source,
emergency cycle, and withdrawal from Council Contingency Fund. CP Gulliford
commented that One Spark’s request from the City of $50,000 was outside of
funds from other sources. He shared that
OED was contributing $25,000 to One Spark.
CM Boyer reported that DIA had committed to providing
$25,000 to One Spark. She suggested that council members on Finance Committee
next year should make sure that events such as One Spark that target downtown
be included in the special events budget.
