RECOMMENDATION: |
Staff recommends approval of accepting the Arizona Game & Fish Department (AZGFD) grant in the amount of $10,000. |
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: |
The AZGFD offers Shooting Range Development grants to encourage the development and improvement of shooting ranges. The Town of Oro Valley has been successful in receiving $35,000 in grants over the past four years to begin the development and support of the Naranja Park archery range. The AZGFD continues to be supportive of this project and has agreed to an additional $10,000 grant. |
BACKGROUND OR DETAILED INFORMATION: |
The AZGFD has been very supportive of the Town of Oro Valley’s desire to construct an outdoor archery range. In 2012, the AZGFD provided the Town with a $15,000 seed money grant to begin the development of the archery range. In 2013, AZGFD awarded an additional $15,000 grant for the installation of a shade canopy, and $5,000 in 2015 toward the continuation of this project. This funding further supports the Town’s efforts to improve the archery range user’s experience. |
FISCAL IMPACT: |
The Town will receive $10,000 in grant funds, and the capacity to expend these funds, including the matching share of $32,000, is included in the FY 2016/17 budget. |
SUGGESTED MOTION: |
I MOVE to (approve or deny) Resolution No. (R)16-43, authorizing and approving an archery Shooting Range Development Grant Agreement between the Arizona Game & Fish Department and the Town of Oro Valley in the amount of $10,000 for the purchase of materials to construct a shade canopy at Naranja Park archery range.
