MEMO TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL <br />PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION <br />FROM: MARV JOHNSON, PARKS AND RECREATION DEPT. <br />DATE: AUGUST 225 1989 <br />SUBJECT: OTHER CITIES' POLICIES <br />TOWARDS ACCEPTING DONATIONS <br />On Thursday, August 17, I called around to different cities to see if they <br />had any type of public policy pertaining to the acceptance of donations. <br />The cities I called were Edina, Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park, Shakopee <br />and Roseville. All of these cities told me that they have no written public <br />policy towards the acceptance of donations. Edina, Brooklyn Center and <br />Shakopee said that they except any and all donations that are deemed <br />appropriate. By this, they mean that it has to be worthwhile for all <br />residents of the city. <br />Finally, in Roseville, they are starting to work on a city-wide policy on <br />accepting donations. This will give them certain standards to follow <br />whenever someone wants to make a donation to the city. <br />MJ/SL <br />
