Official Text

To the Honorable City Council:

 

I respectfully request that your Honorable City Council accept and approve expending a gift of $2,000 from Michael and Laura Lieberman, under the provisions of MGL Chapter 44, Section 53A. This gift does not require the commitment of new matching funds. The purpose of this grant is to provide a gift to the Children's Department in recognition of the following, "Our trips each Saturday to pick up new books to read over and over throughout the week helped us get through the pandemic without overflowing our bookshelves."

 

My staff will be available to answer any questions you may have. Thank your for your consideration of this item.

 

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
