SUBJECT: Establishment of Trust Fund for donations and/or grants for
North Richmond Municipal Advisory Council
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve recommendation by County Administrator to authorize the Auditor-Controller's Office to establish a
trust fund account for receipt of donations, and/or grants by private foundations, companies, or State agencies
for various community programs conducted by the North Richmond Municipal Advisory Council.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None. Monies are from private foundations or companies, and/or State agencies.
BACKGROUND:
The Auditor-Controller's Office has received $60,000 from the Zellerbach Family Trust. These monies are a
donation to the County for support of various programs in the North Richmond community. These programs
are part of a community action plan being conducted by the North Richmond Municipal Advisory Council
(MAC) to improve the livability threshold. To assist the MAC efforts, staff in the County Administrator's Office
have secured donations from several private foundations; the Zellerbach Family Fund and Van Loben Sels
Foundation.
It is anticipated that there will be a multi-year relationship between the MAC and these foundations for funding.
This office is now engaged in applications totaling an additional $100,000 with these organizations as well as
writing grants for possible State funding. Therefore, the establishment of a trust fund will allow the proper
identification and separation of these donations and grants which cannot be used for any other activities other
than that of the North Richmond MAC. The trust fund will also allow for better identification of the allocation of
these funds to various programs, projects and consultants assisting in this community effort.
Additionally, the funds would not require deposit to any existing County accounts which if done so would have
an appearance of new revenue.
