RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council accept the donation from the Yellowstone County DUI Task Force in the Amount of $3,750.
BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)
Council policy requires that any donation greater than $500 must be approved by the City Council. City Council is being asked to accept a donation in the amount of $3,750 from the Yellowstone County DUI Task Force. The donation will be used to fund overtime for special DUI shifts during peak DUI hours.
ALTERNATIVES
City Council may:
- Approve the donation to the Billings Police Department in the amount of $3,750 or;
- Disapprove the donation to the Billings Police Department in the amount of $3,750 which will result in the Billings Police Department not running the special DUI patrols, event patrols, and compliance checks.
FISCAL EFFECTS
There is no impact to the General Fund.
