The Board of Directors of MMNT voted to provide each member city in <br />2010, upon request of the official committee, a $2,000 donation to be used for the <br />city's annual festival. The Lino Lakes Lions Club has been acting in that capacity for <br />the past two years and submitted a request. The donation comes to the city to be <br />passed on to the official committee. The Lions will use some of the funds for a <br />refurbishing of the city's float. The float was built approximately 7 years ago, has <br />appeared since then in approximately 70 parades around the metro area, has won <br />numerous awards, and was in need of repairs. Remaining funds will be used for <br />advertising and expansion of family oriented festival events. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. Approve Resolution No. 10 -54 accepting a donation from MMNT for use by <br />the Lino Lakes Lions Club for Blue Heron Days. <br />2. Deny Resolution 10 -54. <br />
