INTRODUCED: September 23, 2013 BY: Chris Kaufman Background Paper for Proposed RESOLUTION DATE: AGENDA ITEM # M-5 September 23, 2013 DEPARTMENT: City Council TITLE: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING PAYMENT FROM THE COUNCIL CONTINGENCIES ACCOUNT IN THE 2013 GENERAL FUND BUDGET TO THE PUEBLO HUMAN RELATIONS COMMISSION IN THE AMOUNT OF $500 TO SPONSOR A FUNDRAISING BREAKFAST ISSUE: Should the City Council approve a Resolution authorizing the payment of $500 from the Council Contingencies Account in the 2013 General Fund Budget to the Pueblo Human Relations Commission to sponsor a fundraising breakfast? RECOMMENDATION: This Resolution is at the request of City Council Member Sandy Daff. BACKGROUND: The Pueblo Human Relations Commission is soliciting sponsorships for a fundraising breakfast on October 9, 2013. The HRC was founded in 2001 with a mission of enhancing the community’s ability to celebrate diversity by serving as a catalyst in promoting mutual understanding, respect, dignity, and equal opportunity for all. The HRC works as an ombudsman agency, intervening on behalf of those in our society who have no one to speak for them or who are reluctant to seek assistance. This sponsorship will assist them in continuing their mission. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Funds in the amount of $500 will be paid from the Council Contingencies Account in the 2013 General Fund Budget to Pueblo Human Relations Commission.
