ITEM EXPLANATION:
Outgoing Council Member Ramona Finnila has donated $693.99 from her Friends of
Ramona Finnila funds to the Community Activity Grants fund. The Community Activity Grant
program was created in 1999 when Council set aside $1 million from which the interest
earned is allocated for various community service activities. The grants are designed to
provide enrichment programs to the Carlsbad community and jump start new ideas. In order
to be considered for grant funds, an application is completed and submitted usually in early
October. A citizen review committee reviews applications and their recommendations are
made to Council in early December. The donated funds will become part of this fund and
will be appropriated for next year’s grants.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The donation will increase the balance in the Community Activity Grants fund.
