Overview: In order to set clear expectations and consistency between different groups such as “Friends of” and “Foundations” wishing to support the Town’s activities with charitable giving, Town staff recommends using a consistent framework to guide their activities. This evening, the Town Staff is asking the Council if we have we clearly addressed concerns the Council might have about such relationships and if we have missed anything. Next, staff will establish Performance Agreements with existing groups and return to the Council in the fall with an update and/or request for authorization.
