Since the Center's inception in 1982. . our primary financial • <br /> s:,,gporters have been Ramsey County. the City of St . Paul and <br /> private foundations. Foundations cannot be viewed as a long-term <br /> s*.a.bie source of funding, and grant-writing requires a large <br /> expenditure of staff time. <br /> The Center's Board of Directors discussed funding options at its <br /> last meeting. The Board has decided to initiate a fee schedule to <br /> heip cover the cost of actual mediations beainnina this Fall, . <br /> Under the clan. all parties. including cities. will pay a modest <br /> fee for Cispute resolution services. But in addition. the Board <br /> felt that the time had come to broaden 'the base of basic <br /> ac.ninistrative support - for keeping. the doors open, so that <br /> services are available when the need arises. Therefore. we are <br /> asKi.^.a for a voluntary contribution of $250.00 from each city <br /> w- t'— n Ramsey County . <br /> We appreciate •!cur favorable consideration of this request . <br /> During the coming year. we hope you encourage your constituents to <br /> :ry us before goina to court or before their disputes escalate to <br /> vnm,�.^.ice .ble proportions. <br /> S! ncerely. <br /> _Pu 3FoT :?±=D:.ANDFR MARY AD_ ON <br /> _xecuz ive Director Presiders , Board cf Directors <br /> • <br />
