•
It✓
PROPOSED MOTION:
"The City Council approves a resolution accepting donations totaling $25,495.00
from area businesses for the 2013 Community Events Sponsorship Program."
Approval of this item requires a simple majority vote of the City Council.
Each year the city presents four community events: February Festival, Faster Egg
Candy Hunt, 4 of July Celebration, and Halloween Party. These events have
been long- standing traditions in our community. Residents have enjoyed February
Festival for twenty years, the Easter Egg Candy Hunt and 4 of July Celebration
for thirty years, and the Halloween Party for twenty -nine years. To date,
$25,495.00 has been donated to the 2013 Community Events Sponsorship
Program in increments of $500.00 or more. Numerous smaller donations have
also been received bringing the total amount contributed to $29,440 to date.
The generosity and civic pride of our business community is one of the many
reasons wby Chanhassen is a great place to live and raise a family. It is not
surprising that these types of partnerships were recognized when Chanhassen was
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.
RECOMMENDATION
It is staff's recommendation that the city council approve the attached resolution
accepting donations totaling $25,495.00 from area businesses to offset costs
associated with the four community events.
