Item/Subject Omer, Authorizing Sponsorship of the July 4, 2005 Celebration
Responsible Department: Finance
Commentary:
Currently, the City determines funding for the 4e of July celebration as part of its annual budget process.
As the Gry is on a July 1^ Oscal year, determining funding for an event 3 days later represents a potential
hardship for both partes. At a recent budget meeting, it was concluded that the City would like to
transition iFs funding of the a of July Corporation in such a way that funding would be determined a
year in advance. In order W accomplish this, It will be necessary to appropriate funds for the 2005
celebration outside of the budget prole.¢.
The attached order would authorize the expenditure of previously appropriated but unexpended funds for
this purpose. The unexpended funds were put aside to cover in -kith Coss associated with the Folk
Festival and Senior Little League Word Series. The proposed H20M budget Includes the in-kind costs In
the base budge[ of each respective department. Potential funding of the July 4e, 2006 Celebration is part
of the proposed 82006 budget.
