Title
CONSIDERATION OF THE ACCEPTANCE OF A DONATION IN THE AMOUNT OF $500 FROM PATRICIA HANSON TO BE USED AT THE NORMAN ANIMAL WELFARE CENTER.   
 
Body
BACKGROUND:  Patricia Hanson presented the City of Norman Animal Welfare Center with a donation in the amount of $500.00.  A letter was attached with the donation.  
 
DISCUSSION:  This is a private unsolicited donation to be used for the care of those animals that are residing at the shelter.  Since the Norman Animal Welfare Center is currently in the process of remodeling, these funds could be combined with other donations to assist during the remodel, if needed.  An appropriation from City Council would be needed at that time to spend the combined funds.
 
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:  It is recommended that the $500 donation be accepted and deposited into Animal Control Liability (010-0000-227.24-31).  The funds can be used as needed during the remodeling of the Norman Animal Welfare Center via future Council appropriation.
