where the funding support would come from. City Manager Phillips explained that
the funds would come from the General Fund Contingency, which is an emergency
fund.
Alderman
Tollenaer expressed the concern of how many other individuals or organizations
would approach and rely upon the City for support of special projects, if
funding were to be committed to the Rock Island Striders Track Club.

Conroy stated that this would be a one-time commitment, and the program has
made great strides with over 50 children in the club.

nonprofit organizations in the past, and this is a one- time option. Alderman

from the City, ($50,000.00 in gaming revenue available for social service
groups) and next year they will be more organized.

some structure in their lives.

Austin inquired upon Parks and Recreation Department Director Bill Nelson to
step forward and provide information about the Rock Island Striders Track Club.

Nelson explained that over $1,150.00 in donations has been made to the Rock
Island Striders Track Club, and the Club will also do fundraising to meet their
goal of $6, 840.00. Mr. Nelson also commented that the Striders Club understood
that their request for funds came at an inappropriate time, and they are
committed in trying to raise the funds to the best of their ability. Ms. Barnes
addressed the Council and stated that this program includes children between
the ages of six to high school. Ms. Barnes also noted that the Club has grown
from fewer than 30 students the first year to over 50 students so far this
year, and this program offers a great opportunity to bring children together to
improve the City and keep their minds off of negative things.
Mayor
Schwiebert stated to Ms. Barnes that the City is spending thousands of dollars
each year in support of these kinds of activities for youth. However, the City
cannot be the answer to all funding problems.
Mayor Schwiebert noted that the emphasis should be on family support,
and also suggested finding corporate sponsors to under-write part of the club
costs.
After
more discussion, Alderman Austin suggested he would like to see more
information regarding funding for the Club. He suggested tabling this item until
more fundraising efforts could be generated.
Mayor Schwiebert noted that if the item is tabled it would be postponed
without any date for recall, and the season is already underway.

be special effects including outdoor noiseless electronic fireworks and various
other activities.

Conroy voiced concerns with having music on Wednesday night.
Mr.
Scott responded that he was asking for any assistance that the City could give

of 11:00 p.m. The Mayor also commented
to Mr. Scott that if there were any complaints about noise that the music would
be shut down.
Mr.
Scott responded that he had requested the music until 12:00 a.m., and the music
was not going to be loud. He asked the
Council to work with him because this is a new marketing plan.

Schwiebert stated that Council has concerns about Wednesday nights. And,
Wednesday nights would not be allowed at the present time. However, Mr. Scott
could come back to Council at a later date with a separate application for
outdoor live entertainment on Wednesday nights.
