This bench donation would replace an existing wooden bench that will be refurbished and used as a bench replacement as needed. • Discussion City Council Policy B -17 establishes criteria for parks, facilities, and recreation program donations within the City. The policy is structured to establish a fair and uniform procedure for making gifts to the City, and to make the donation process easier for staff and donors. The City has received a request from Ms. Mickey Warner (Attachment A) to donate a bench at Rhine Wharf Park. The donated bench (Attachment B) is included on the City's Official Bench List. Attachment C shows the existing wooden bench and Attachment D depicts the location of the proposed bench donation. The cost of the donation will include the 10% maintenance fee recently approved with the revision to Council Policy B -17. Since the value of the bench is greater than $1,000.00, the donation is eligible to receive a dedicatory plaque that will be placed on the bench. The submitted plaque verbiage, which complies with City Council Policy B -17, is "In Memory of David Warner ". Ms. Warner and Council Member Michael F. Henn received a copy of this report and a notice of the Commission meeting. This bench donation does not require staff to notice the adjoining property owners, since this is a replacement bench.
