TITLE:
Receive Report and Consider Approval of Policy Regarding Donations to the City of Fort Bragg ISSUE:
The City of Fort Bragg currently does not have a written donation policy. Staff was tasked to prepare a policy for consideration. The purpose of this policy is to establish a formal process to accept and document donations made to the City and to provide guidance when individuals, community groups, and businesses wish to make donations to the City. It also aims to establish the standards for City employees and City officials regarding the acceptance of gifts during the performance of City business.

City staff has also provided a form to acknowledge donations. This form allows those making donations to designate how they would like to have the funds used. This will also allow staff to monitor any donation requests and provide updates to City Council.
