following policy.

matching funds are required, the Commission may independently decide to
to apply for federal or state grant funds appropriated for Bicentennial
Activities.

appropriate for Bicentennial Activities, where no initial comitment of
City funds is necessary.

federal grants; where local matching funds are required for state or
federal grant programs ; or where a commitment of City funds is necessary
to initiate local fund raising activities; prior approval of the City
Council will be necessary.

City Council will be kept fully informed and accounting for such funds
will be handled through the City's Finance Division.
