Explanation
Background: This ordinance amends ordinance 1521-2023. The Charles Madison Nabrit Memorial Garden was authorized by Ord 1521-2023 to receive grant funds. However that entity is not the legal name of the organization, it is a registered DBA of the legal entity Telos Training, Inc. Therefore an amendment is necessary to change the name of the organization authorized to receive funding from The Charles Madison Nabrit Memorial Garden to Telos Training, Inc
A further amendment is needed to authorize the expenditure of funds by grantees listed in 1521-2023 for the purchase of reasonable food & non-alcoholic beverages for summer youth program participants.
