Overview: The Town does not currently have a process for receiving and considering requests by non-profit organizations for capital funding. This memorandum outlines a process the Council could consider for the Town Manager to pilot for Fiscal Year 2020. The Council will have a separate opportunity to consider whether to include such funding in their budget during the normal budget process.

|
Recommendation(s): |
That the Council receive this information regarding a proposed pilot process for receiving and considering requests from non-profits for capital funding and provide feedback on: 1) their interest in a pilot program 2) the structure of a pilot program 3) the proposed next steps outlined in this memorandum.
Key Topics:
• Review and discuss the pilot program information
• Provide the Town Manager with guidance for next steps
Fiscal Impact/Resources: Initial fiscal impacts include staff time to develop and potentially administer the pilot process, if directed to do so. Fiscal impacts related to funding capital requests by non-profits would be part of the Council’s overall budget discussion.
