RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller to pay up to $1,000 for expenses incurred by Fire Chief Jeff Carman, the designated Chair of the 2017 Contra Costa County Combined Charities Campaign, to promote the annual County Combined Charities Campaign.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Cost will be covered 100% by the County General Fund.
BACKGROUND:
Fire Chief Jeff Carman has been chosen to chair the 2017 Combined Charities Campaign for Contra Costa County. This is the annual drive to promote charitable giving among County employees. To invigorate the annual event, the Fire District is arranging a luncheon to be held for the County coordinators and various prizes to incentivize the effort. I am requesting and recommending that the Fire District be authorized to expend, and the Auditor-Controller be authorized to pay up to $1,000 for these purposes. The goal is to increase last year's donations by approximately 50% to $160,000.
