Grant Funds: N/A
Staff Recommendation: Adopt the Resolution.
Important Considerations: These events are held annually to thank Carmel Public Library
Foundation donors. City Policy C89-47 requires support groups to obtain City
Council co-sponsorship of events at which alcohol is served. The Carmel Public
Library Foundation will secure Daily License Permits from the Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control.
Decision Record: The City Council has approved co-sponsorship of the Annual Donor
Salute ever since 1994. The City Council approved co-sponsorship of the first
Annual Sterling Circle Reception in April 2010.
