Approve Resolution Accepting 2010 Special Event
Sponsorship Donations from Area Businesses
PROPOSED MOTION:
"The City Council approves a resolution accepting donations totaling $1,500 from
area businesses for the 2010 Special Events Sponsorship Program."
Approval ofthis item requires a super majority vote ofthe City Council.
Each year the city presents four community events: February Festival, Easter Egg
Candy Hunt, 4th of July Celebration, and Halloween Party. These events have
been long-standing traditions in our community as residents have enjoyed
February Festival for seventeen years, the Easter Egg Candy Hunt and 4th of July
Celebration for twenty-seven years, and the Halloween Party for twenty-six years.
To date $23,400 has been donated to the 2010 marquee special events sponsorship
program. This $1,500 represents additional contributions.
The generosity and civic pride of our business community is one of the many
reasons why Chanhassen is a great place to live and raise a family. It is not
surprising that these types of partnerships were recognized in assisting
Chanhassen in being named one of the best places to live and raise a family in
multiple publications. All of the community events are made possible through
generous donations from the local business community.
RECOMMENDA TION
It is staffs recommendation that the City Council approve the attached resolution
accepting additional donations totaling $1,500 from area businesses to offset costs
associated with the four community events.
