- agenda-report Request of Mayor Davis and Councilmember Torosis that the City Council allot $10,000 of its discretionary funds to the Santa Monica Animal Shelter Foundation. The funds will be used to help create a proper turfed play area for dogs at the Santa Monica Animal Shelter. The shelter needs a proper area where dogs can play and exercise and interact with potential adopters and shelter volunteers. Currently, the play area is all dirt which makes it unusable and unpleasant much of the time and it has repeatedly flooded in recent rains. Creating a properly turfed area will greatly benefit shelter dogs’ wellbeing while waiting for their forever home. The estimated total cost of the project is $30,000 and the Foundation plans to seek private donations for the additional monies needed to complete the project.
- agenda-report Request of Mayor Davis and Councilmember Zwick that the Council allocate $10,000 of its discretionary funds to support Pride activities this year. Organizers are working with the Pier, Downtown Santa Monica, Santa Monica Travel and Tourism, and Santa Monica Place to return Pride activities to the City sometime in June. Current plans are for a one-day, family-friendly celebration with installations in Downtown Santa Monica, at the Pier, and Santa Monica Place. Total budget for the event presently is $30,000-$40,000 and a $10,000 contribution will allow the City to be a sponsor of the event. Other organizations are contributing similar amounts as part of their sponsorship.
- agenda-report Request of Mayor Davis and Mayor Pro Tem Negrete that the City Council allocate $10,000 of discretionary funds to Samohi Grad Nite, a 501(c)3, to enable over 165 low-income students to attend. This would close the shortfall between previous City funding allocated as part of the annual budget and the organization’s expenses for June 2023. For over 30 years, Grad Nite has provided a safe, secure venue for graduating Santa Monica High School seniors to celebrate their achievements.
- agenda-report Request of Mayor Davis and Mayor Pro Tem Negrete that the City Council allocate up to $10,000 of their Discretionary Funds to the Montana Avenue Merchants Association, a 501 (c) (3) for their annual Art Walk that is planned for September 30, 2023. The Art Walk is a one-day outdoor art festival that takes place along the Montana Ave. business corridor, from 6th - 17th Streets. The event includes performance artists, live music, and interactive art activities for children and adults. Art Walk has been an annual event for the past 10 years and has become one of Montana Avenue’s signature events. The funding will be used to offset costs related to supporting an enhanced and expanded event including the costs associated with potentially closing portions of Montana Avenue.
