Shakopee City Council
February 2, 2022


FROM:Jay Tobin, Parks/Recreation Director
TO:Mayor and Council Members
Subject:
Donations
Policy/Action Requested:
Adopt Resolution No. R2022-18, a resolution accepting the gifts and donations received from outside organizations as presented.
Recommendation:
To accept the generous donations received by the city from SignPro in support of operations at the Shakopee Ice Arena.
Discussion:

On November 6, 2002, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 5794, which established procedure relating to the receipt of gifts and donations by the City. Resolution No. 5794 specifies that donations of real property shall be accepted by resolution of the City Council and shall require a two-thirds majority of the Council for acceptance.

Jim BIanco of SignPro's generous donation of his staff's time and expertise allowed a creative idea to be transformed into innovative and attention-grabbing works of art.  The "Tankboni" partnership with the Minnesota National Guard, and the Fire Truck Zamboni partnership with the Shakopee Fire Department will awe visitors and fans and hopefully capture the attention of potential recruitment prospects for both organizations.

Budget Impact:
Saved the City $6,543.68 in production costs.
