General Business 5.1 Water Tower Subcommittee Update Mr. Carlton spoke with Chair Fox prior to the meeting regarding progress with Friends of the Kelley Farm to establish a 501 (c)(3) and provided the update. The Kelley Farm is seeking to establish the non-profit for use by the water tower subcommittee that will be transitioned at a later date for their use. The Kelley Farm has been receptive of the idea and needs to check with their accountant to ensure compliance. They expect to receive his approval in August. Vice Chair Mortensen asked if the non-profit organization will be able to receive donations after the project. Mr. Carlton stated that once the non-profit is transitioned to another use by the Kelley Farm we would no longer be able to utilize the status for our purposes. Mr. Carlton will research establishing a non-profit for the purpose of accepting future donations for other Commission projects.
