RECOMMENDATION: Review possible revisions in City Commission Reinvestment Program as to activity
eligibility. The financial scope of the program has already been changed by a budget reduction from $125,000 to $62,500
per the approved 2001-02 Budget. Any changes in project eligibility should be approved by Resolution.
EXPLANATION: Program was originally approved per Resolution R01-5 on January 16, 2001 based on the criteria
established at that time. One amendment to the eligibility requirements was approved as Resolution R01-232 on August 7.
2001. That change dealt with the addition of a scholarship program. A copy of the current policy with 2001-02 funding
levels shown is attached for reference.
PROGRAM IMPACT: Not determined at this time depending on what changes in funding uses are proposed. Care needs
to be taken to assure that the use of public funds does not result in private benefit or gain.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funds have been budgeted at the $62,500 level.
