RESOLUTION ACCEPTING A DONATION FROM FARMERS INSURANCE
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Approve resolution to accept $100.00
donation to the Lakeville Fire Department (LFD) from Farmers Insurance.
Passage of this motion will provide funds to be used towards the purchase of Carbon Monoxide
Information handouts used at Fire Prevention Events.
Overview
The Lakeville Fire Department staff was contacted by Farmers Insurance agent Jon St Aubin
interested to donate $100.00 in fire prevention materials. Staff provided information on Carbon
Monoxide handouts. Farmer Insurance has purchased the handouts and will deliver them to the
department once received.
Some grants and donations may require the City to incur additional expenditures in order to
comply with grant agreements and restricted donations; therefore, staff is seeking authority to
amend the budget, as appropriate.
Primary Issues to Consider
• Acknowledgement of donation acceptance
• Chief Meyer will draft a “Thank You” letter following Council’s approval of this
resolution.
