DATE: | 10/15/07 STAFF: | PRICE COMMUNITY ACTIVITY GRANT CITIZEN REVIEW COMMITTEE D INFO ACTION RECOMMENDED ACTION : Appoint a Parks and Recreation Commission member to serve on the Citizen Review Committee for FY 2007/2008. ITEM EXPLANATION : Each year a representative from the Finance Department is tasked with facilitating the distribution of Community Grant Activity funds for qualifying programs. (Exhibit 1) Part of that process involves the selection of members to a review committee that will evaluate grant applications and make recommendation to the City Council for grant awards. Similar to previous review committees, a representative from the Parks and Recreation Commission has been requested to serve in this capacity. Therefore, the Commission is requested to provide a member of the board to serve on the Citizen Review Committee to review Community Activity Grant applications. EXHIBITS: 1.
