Item No: 25-080
Responsible Dept: Police
Requested Action: Order
Map/Lot: N/A
Title, Order
Authorizing the City Manager to Accept a Donation from Author Jessica Blood to Support the City's Canine
Teams
Summary
This Order would authorize the City Manager to accept a donation, from author Jessica Blood to
support the City's canine teams (i.e. safety gear, advanced training, etc).
Jessica penned a new children's book, The Adventures of Jesi — Jesi's First Day of School.
The book and its main character, Jesi, was inspired by the author's personal experience. Jessica and
her husband, Officer Lucas Libby, share their home with Jesi, a Bangor Police Department canine.
The book is about starting a new journey, in this instance the first day of school, while being
seemingly different and making new friends. Jesi was smaller and had a different appearance than
the other dogs in the training class but was quickly accepted and proved to be an exceptionally
skilled police canine.
Jessica has graciously offered to donate a percentage of the proceeds from her book to the patrol
canine program which is estimated to be between $1,000 - $5,000.
