<br />Mayor Ramsey stated that Youth First was attempting to obtain a grant for $40,000 and he did <br />not feel that the City should fund that program for $33,000 in addition to that grant. He <br />questioned if any items could be moved from the general fund to the charitable gambling fund. <br /> <br />The Council further discussed the programs that could or should be cut. It was determined that <br />the Anoka Aquatic Center would not be funded for the 2010 year. <br /> <br />Finance Officer Lund confirmed that only 35 percent of the charitable gambling fund could be <br />used for these programs. <br /> <br />Councilmember Dehen questioned if further information could be provided in regard to the <br />Night to Unite. <br /> <br />Councilmember Look questioned if funding for the Lower Rum River WMO could be dropped <br />from $12,200 to $8,000.
