RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to accept the Public Safety in the Park donation in the
amount of $188 to the Police Equipment Fund and to approve the expenditure of these
funds to purchases shoes/boots that will be donated to kids in need at Rosemount Schools.
BACKGROUND
The Police Equipment Fund has been set up for the purpose of receiving donations that are designated for
the Police Department. Expenditures from this account are only made after approval is received from the
City Council.
In 2017, the police department partnered with a Rosemont Area Hockey Association team to help them
complete a service project in the community. Specifically, the Community Resource Officer met with the
team to discuss needs in the Rosemount community and help them establish the goal of their service
project. After learning of kids in Rosemount schools who were often in need of more adequate footwear
throughout the year, the group decided to raise money to buy shoes and start the community initiative
called “Kicks for Kids.”
Last year, the group raised money bagging groceries at Cub Foods and the donated funds were used to
purchase a wide variety of shoes/boots that were given to kids as staff identified someone in need.
The Council is being asked to accept a donation from Public Safety in the Park in the amount of $188.
The donation was made to help pay for shoes and boots for kids as they are identified by staff within
Rosemount area schools.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the acceptance of the donation and authorization of the expenditure.
