Body
Action Requested:
The Northfield City Council is being asked to approve a motion approving the 2024 annual service contract to provide funding to the Northfield Historical Society for their annual services with the City.
Summary Report:
The City Council is being asked to approve the 2024 annual service contract with the Northfield Historical Society.
The Northfield Historical Society is requesting $36,000 for their annual contract with the City. Past contracts with the City were $29,000 in 2021, 2022, and 2023. Attached is a proposed one-year service contract with very similar services to be provided as was included in the past contracts. A redlined (attachment 1) and clean version (attachment 2) of the contract is attached.
The 2025-2027 contract with the Northfield Historical Society will be handled separately during this year’s budget process. Executive Director, Sean Allen, will be presenting the annual mid-year NHS presentation at that time.
Alternative Options:
Council can choose not to fund the contract.
Financial Impacts:
$36,000 which was budgeted in the 2024 budget.
Tentative Timelines:
The contract would go into effect immediately.
