Executive Summary: Grant money has become available this summer for programs like Camp Joyful Soles. These grants are distributed through Fulton County to 501 (c) 3 non -profit organizations that partner with or provide programming to meet the needs of the community. The Lionheart School, Inc. already partners with the City of Alpharetta for similar services with Camp Happy Hearts. The Lionheart School, Inc. believes that they can increase the opportunity of receiving a grant award by also partnering with the City of Milton. The City of Milton would benefit as we cannot receive a grant from this program without a partner . Funding and Fiscal Impact: The MOU itself would have no financial impact on the City as there is no cost to enter into the MOU. The benefit to the city is the opportunity to be awarded funding to offset much of the costs of running Camp Joyful Soles. Page 2 of 2 Alternatives: There are two alternatives. The first is to attempt to find a different non-profit organization willing to act as our financial partner. The second is to decline to obtain a financial partner and therefore not apply for this funding.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows: 1. Application.

Payment. Other than dispersing of funds, as described herein, neither party shall owe anything to the other for any services provided herein. 4. Protection of Tax Exempt Status.

City agrees to comply with any reasonable written request by Sponsor that it cease activities which might jeopardize the Sponsor’s tax exempt status. Any changes in the purpose for 2 which funds are spent must be approved in writing by Sponsor before implementation. Sponsor retains the right, if the City breaches this MOU, or if the Program jeopardizes Sponsor’s legal or tax status, to withhold, withdraw, or demand immediate return of funds. 5. Indemnification. City hereby agrees, to the extent, if any, permitted by law, to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Sponsor, its officers, directors, trustees, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), directly or indirectly, wholly and partially arising from or in connection with any act or omission of the City or the City’s employees or agents in implementing and operating the Program, except to the extent that such claims, liabilities, losses or expenses arise from or in connection with any act or omission of Sponsor, its officers, directors, trustees, employees or agents. Further, Sponsor hereby agrees, to the extent, if any, permitted by law, to defend, indemnify and hold harmless City, its officers, directors, trustees, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), directly or indirectly, wholly and partially arising from or in connection with any act or omission of the Sponsor or the Sponsor’s employees or agents, except to the extent that such claims, liabilities, losses or expenses arise from or in connection with any act or omission of City, its officers, directors, trustees, employees or agents. 6. Term.

If the Term of this MOU is longer than one year, the parties agree that this MOU, as required by O.C.G.A. § 36-60-13, shall terminate absolutely and without further obligation on the part of the City on December 31 each calendar year of the Term, and further, that this MOU shall automatically renew on January 1 of each subsequent calendar year absent the City’s provision of written notice of non-renewal to Sponsor at least five (5) days prior to the end of the then current calendar year.

Executive Summary: The City has gradually been taking over the maintenance of all of the fields we control at our parks as well as our IGA fields. This contract will have us take over the maintenance of the fields at Northwestern Middle School and Birmingham Falls Elementary School. Previously, this was done by EagleStix, our lacrosse partner. We now have the responsibility for maintaining and preparing the grass fields. This contract will address all of these issues. The contract is a result of an invitation to bid and Tri Scapes was selected because they were the lowest cost vendor. Funding and Fiscal Impact: The fee of $23,090.00 is well within the budgeted price that was planned for in the FY16 budget. This will be paid with available funds from the Maintenance and Operating Budget. Alternatives: Page 2 of 2 This work must be completed to maintain the park. The only alternative is to go back to the market and rebid this.

The Contractor agrees not to represent itself as the City's agent for any purpose to any party or to allow any employee of the Contractor to do so, unless specifically authorized, in advance and in writing, to do so, and then only for the limited purpose stated in such authorization.

This indemnity obligation does not include Liabilities caused by or resulting from the sole negligence of an Indemnified Party. Such obligation shall not be construed to negate, abridge, or otherwise reduce any other right or obligation of indemnity which would otherwise exist as to any party or person described in this provision. In any and all claims against an Indemnified Party by any employee of the Contractor, any sub -contractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by the Contractor or sub -contractor or anyone for whose acts the Contractor or sub -contractor may be liable, the indemnification obligation set forth in this provision shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for the Contractor or any sub -contractor under workers' or workmen's compensation acts, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts.

Executive Summary: There has been an expressed interest in the ability of a licensed retail consumption-on- the-premises dealer to also hold a package license. This will allow the licensee to sell packaged wine and/or beer to patrons that may not have access to the same product elsewhere. While our current ordinance does not specifically address the ability of a business owner to hold two different types of alcoholic beverage licenses, it is permitted by the Georgia State Rules and Regulations. Presented is an amendment to the ordinance containing the necessary verbiage permitting a consumption license holder to also obtain a wine and/or beer package license only (packaged distilled spirits is strictly prohibited in this situation). Funding and Fiscal Impact: A positive impact on funding will result due to the additional license fees. Alternatives: Reject the amendment and leave the ordinance as is.
