Consider accepting a donation from the Carrollton-Farmers Branch Soccer Association and take appropriate action.
Body
BACKGROUND:
The Carrollton-Farmers Branch Soccer Association (CFBSA) has long been the association that provides recreational soccer opportunities for Farmers Branch youth. CFBSA has been in operation for many years and works very well for the community and the City.
DISCUSSION:
This year, for the first time, CFBSA requested field space at Pepper Park for a new 6 on 6 summer soccer league. Farmers Branch fields were specifically requested because they are widely recognized as the best soccer fields in the Metroplex.
As a "thank you" the soccer association would like to make a $500 donation to the City. Representatives of CFBSA are present to make the donation to the City for supporting this new endeavor and to express their appreciation to City Council.
RECOMMENDATION:
City Administration recommends accepting the donation from CFBSA.
ACTIONS:
1) Motion to accept a $500 donation from the CFBSA.
2) Motion to deny a $500 donation from the CFBSA.
3) Motion to modify to meet the needs of the Council.
4) Motion to table the issue for further study or take no action.
