Dear Honorable Board:
Ms. Diane Lewis, the daughter of Ms. Barbara D'Ambrosio, has offered to donate one of her mom's paintings to the City of Somerville. Ms. D'Ambrosio recently passed away, after spending the first 64 years of her life in Somerville.
In accordance with M.G.L. Chapter 44, Section 53A, which requires a vote of the Board of Aldermen for the expenditure of grants or gifts from the federal government and from a charitable foundation, private corporation, or an individual, or from the Commonwealth, a county or municipality or agency thereof, I request approval to accept this donation, of unknown value, from Ms. Diane Lewis.
Thank you for your consideration.
Joseph A. Curtatone
Mayor
