December 12, 2007
City Clerk's Office, City Hall
Members Present: Keranen, Nelson, Segar, Weeks
Members Absent: Bleam, Green
Others Present: City Clerk Karr, City Council Liaison Correia
Call to Order: 5:33 P.M.
Introduction of new member: Michelle Han introduced herself to all present and
begins her term as a member in January.
Approve Minutes: Motioned by Segar, seconded by Weeks. Approved 4 -0.
Report from Website Subcommittee: None.
Report from Grant Prommmin2 Subcommittee: Nelson and Keranen reported
that Megan Meyers at Regina High School applied for $500 to be used toward purchasing
furniture and computer equipment for a needy family. The project was already
established and had been conducted by the senior students in religion class at Regina
High school for years. The city attorney reviewed the application due to the mentioning
of religion and stated that the project would be acceptable to fund under current
regulations.
Nelson and Keranen reported that they met with Meyers to further understand the project.
The families chosen to receive gifts were considered "working poor" by the Crisis Center
and religion was never discussed at any point in the project with the families. The
funding requested by Meyers would go to expanding the gifts offered to the family.
Nelson and Keranen called into question whether the project was empowering to the
youth and whether it was an appropriate use of city funds. In discussion among those
present it was mentioned that the program empowers youth by engaging them with the
community in discovering that other families may possess much less than they do.
The funding request was approved by a vote of 3 -1, Nelson voting no.
Karr stated that she would inform Meyers of the funding so as to allow time for
purchasing the gifts. The Grant Programming Subcommittee members would then
approve the receipts that would be presented by Meyers to allow reimbursement.
Public Discussion: None.

Re: Reimbursement of Funds
Attached are the receipts from our Christmas Basket Project. We were able
to purchase computer equipment for 2 families who had requested computer
updates. In addition we purchased a table, blanket and games for another
family. We appreciate being granted the $500.00 award to offset these
purchases. The reimbursement check should be written to Regina High
School and attributed to Christmas Basket project. Please send to us at:

Commission wants me to a press release regarding the awarding of the first grant. The only information I have is
the application itself, and I was wondering if you have anything to share about the shopping or current status......
