T°9 CITY COMMISSION AGENDA I JULY 8, 2019 1 REGULAR MEETING
TITLE
Donation Acceptance for Moss Park Basketball Court
SUMMARY
In September 2018, Parks and Recreation was contacted by Swishh Dreams, LLC, a
local Winter Springs business that regularly donates funds from its sales towards
improving outdoor basketball courts, about restoring a court in Winter Springs.
Staff selected Moss Park's basketball courts, which are due for resurfacing
maintenance in Fiscal Year 2020-21. Swishh Dreams, LLC sold t-shirts and managed
basketball tournaments in a fundraising effort that accumulated approximately
$8,900 to be donated to the City. This amount would satisfy the resurfacing
maintenance costs and would take about four weeks to complete.
The goal is to transform the courts into an active place where residents can play,
gather as a community, develop skills, and experience the benefits of sport.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Commission accept the donation from Swishh Dreams
in the amount of$8,900 forthe renovation of the basketball courts at Moss Park and
authorize the City Manager and City Attorney to prepare and execute any and all
applicable documents.
