BACKGROUNDIDISCUSSION: Council formalized our initial agreement establishing a permanent Animal Services Endowment with the Lubbock Area Foundation with Resolution # 2007-80150 on April 12, 2007. Our initial goal was targeted at $100,000.00 in order to take advantage of a 50% match ($50,000 match maximum) to those dollars. The extra matching dollars are available from the Community Endowment Challenge if we meet our target goal by March 1, 2008. The matching dollars would boost the total permanent endowment to $150,000.00. The entire $100,000.00 must be received by the Lubbock Area Foundation by March 1, 2008 or Lubbock Animal Services will not receive the $50,000 challenge grant. All assets of the Fund will remain with the Foundation in a permanent endowment for the benefit of Lubbock Animal Services. As of February 5, 2008, our current Lubbock Area Foundation balance is $78,437.00 leaving $21,563.00 still outstanding or short of our initial goal. In order to meet the $100,000.00 goal by March 1, 2008, staff proposes that we move $21,563.00 from the City of Lubbock Animal donations account 148.1003.09545 to the permanent Lubbock Area Foundation Animal Services endowment. Transferring $21,563.00 from the City's donation account to the Lubbock Area Foundation will meet our initial endowment goal of $100,000 and automatically qualify us to receive the additional $50,000.00 from the CH Foundation. The Lubbock Area Foundation shall use and distribute proceeds from the Fund for the purposes of Lubbock Animal Services. FISCAL IMPACT: $21,563.00 from account 148.1003.09545, Animal Services Donation Fund, will be transferred to the Lubbock Area Foundation Animal Services Permanent Endowment. The remaining money in the City Animal Services Donation Fund will continue to be used by the Animal Services Programs to support short-term improvements for all Animal Services programs and operations.
