AGENDA SECTION:
Consent
PREPARED BY: Mikael Dahlstrom, Chief of Police AGENDA NO. 6.d.
ATTACHMENTS: Worksheet APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to accept donation in the amount of $800 from the
neighborhood group of Hosanna Church in Rosemount to be utilized for the 2021 “Shop
with a Cop event.”
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.
Since 2015, the police department has partnered with local businesses and organizations to host a “Shop
with a Cop” event for local children in need of support around the holiday season. This youth enrichment
program is not only an excellent way to provide support, but it is also an excellent forum for education,
conversation, and engagement between our Department and the youth of our community.
The neighborhood group of Hosanna Church in Rosemount recently met with me, Chief Dahlstrom, to
discuss potential ideas for the donation. The group voted unanimously to support local kids in need of
support; they also plan to assist the night of the event. The “Shop with a Cop” program would not be the
success it is without the generous partnership of community members such as this neighborhood group
from Hosanna!
The Council is asked to accept the donation from this family in the amount of $800. The donation was
made to the Rosemount Police Department to help cover expenses related to the “Shop with a Cop”
program.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the acceptance of the donation and authorization of the expenditure for the “Shop with
a Cop” program.
