Russo, City Manager CL <br /> DATE: September 9, 2004 ll// <br /> RE: CONTRIBUTION TO FLU'S BISCAYNE BAY SOCIETY PROJECT <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached resolution renewing its <br /> charitable contribution to Florida International University's Biscayne Bay Society ("Society") <br /> for its Biscayne Bay Campus Project("Project"). <br /> REASONS <br /> Last year, the City became a co-partner in the Society's Project to inform surrounding residents <br /> of the many adult events taking place at the Biscayne Bay Campus. The goal is to bring <br /> activities, such as specialized classes, lectures, speakers, etc. to that campus, for the enjoyment of <br /> neighboring residents. The Society seeks a renewal of the City's Five Thousand Dollar <br /> ($5,000.00) contribution, which will provide for programming that we could not otherwise afford <br /> or provide because of facility constraints. <br /> ADDITIONAL INFORMATION <br /> Specifically, this co-partnership allows our residents to participate in the Second Tuesdays at <br /> Biscayne Bay Program. This cultural events program consists of a series of events that will take <br /> place from October 2004 to April 2005 on the second Tuesday of each month at the Biscayne <br /> Bay Campus. It offers activities that are educational, rewarding, and stimulating at little or no <br /> cost to participants. <br /> Overall, this program will be beneficial to our residents and visitors, and it can be incorporated <br /> into our existing Cultural Events Program. <br /> CJR/pw <br /> Agenda Item <br /> FIU-2nd Tues Contribution Agenda Memo <br /> Date <br />
