BBC Donation Acceptance Feb 24, 2014 Page 2 Y Partners Y Partners is the funding mechanism whereby families in need are provided assistance or full scholarships so that they are able to take part in community programming offerings at the Community Center. MV Community Resource Center BBC contributions helped fund the employment of a Community Social Worker (CSW) to coordinate services at the Community Support Center; a faith, service, school collaboration at Pike Lake Ed Center, in order to prevent and divert homelessness and housing instability in our local region. (Additional information attached for Council reference.) AED Replacements in Squad Cars The AED units were originally donated by Medtronic in 2006, and they are approaching the end of their designed life—the manufacturer has put us on notice that they will discontinue service and maintenance on these units at the end of the year. We have sixteen units total (one in each squad plus one at City Hall, the Community Center, one of the park buildings and the public works garage.) Each AED unit costs $1,600. Mobile Dental Clinics BBC has supported this service for the last few funding cycles, providing dental services to residents in need living in the manufactured home communities and elsewhere. The service is provided by "Medical Teams International." Each mobile dental clinic costs $650. Senior Wellness Program Requested by the MVCCNMCA, funding will allow us to offer a program designed for 60+ individuals looking to make a change to their lifestyles. Small group, Personal Trainer lead, sample foods and demos of exercises aimed at their skill and need level would be provided. Recommendation: Attached for your consideration is Resolution 8214, a resolution which accepts the donation from Bethlehem Baptist Church in the amount of $18,285 and authorizes the distribution of the donations according to the Church's recommendations. Respectfully submitted, James Ericson City Administrator
