MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners
FROM: Ellis Shapiro, City Manager
DATE: January 12,1996
RE: Appreciation Dinner for Volunteer Board Members
As you may recall, the City Commission authorized Staff to arrange for an
appreciation dinner for all volunteer board members. A date was originally set
for December and then rescheduled for January 27, 1996, with a budget of
$2,500.00.
Since that time it has been determined that the calculation of 200 participants is
more accurate than the original figure of 100 people; consequently, preparations
for the event are at a somewhat larger scale. Therefore, Staff requests that the
event be moved to February 24, 1996, and that additional funds be expended.
To give you an idea of what is "in the works," we will be proclaiming February
as Volunteer Appreciation Month with a banner to that effect placed on the
outside of City Hall. Additionally, our event has a tentative theme that may
coincide with Valentine's Day. Our "waiters" will be easily recognizable, and
the evening is guaranteed to be fun, light-hearted, with plenty of Board
recognition in many ways, shapes and forms!
Staff respectfully requests that the date of the function be changed to Saturday,
February 24, 1996, and that additional funds be authorized not to exceed $2,000.
If approved, the additional funds will be taken from the Mayor/Commission
account(001-511-4001) to offset costs for this event.
Respectfully S , itted,
