10/28/94 10:10 NW YOUTH & FAMILY SERVICES a 484 4538 NO.316 PO4 MEMORANDUM DATE: October 27, 1994 TO: City of Little Canada FROM: Kay Andrews, Executive Director Northwest Youth & Family Services REASON: Chant Application to Board of Innovation & Cooperation *********************************************** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** I am writing on behalf of Northwest Youth & Family Services (NYFS) to ask your support of a grant to the Board of Government Innovation and Cooperation for funds to develop a Youth Activity Center at NYFS' new building located at 3490 North Lexington Avenue. Eligible applicants, of which NYFS is one, include organizations established by two or more local governments under a joint powers agreement. One -time only start up funds are available and they would be used to renovate the building and purchase equipment for the Youth Activity Center. NYFS is asking each of its joint powers cities to participate as co- applicants. A signature of the senior elected or administrative official is required. Your endorsement will help us to submit the strongest application possible. Your participation does not infer a responsibility on the part of your city to provide funding for the Youth Activity Center. You may remember this is the project/resolution that was mentioned during our visit with your council. I have enclosed the pre - application narrative for your review. It should answer most of your questions about the project and its benefit to the youth of our communities. Since we have a short time -frame before the grant is due, I would like the form to be picked up rather than mailed. The grant is due by November 15th. The form is needed no later than November 11th. If you have any questions or to arrange to have the form picked up, please call me or Jeanne Thompson, Development Director, at 636 -5448. Thank you for your assistance. Page 31
