1111111111111111111, <br />TO: <br />City of Tukwila <br />Allan Ekberg, Mayor <br />INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM <br />Finance & Governance Committee <br />FROM: Tracy Gallaway, Parks & Recreation Director <br />Vicky Carlsen, Finance Director <br />CC: Mayor Ekberg <br />DATE: March 14, 2022 <br />SUBJECT: Summer Camp Programming and Enrichment Funding Allocation <br />ISSUE <br />Staff is planning to use the Summer Camp allocation of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds <br />to restore the Teen Summer Camp & Enrichment Programs to include our traditionally offered <br />TeenVenture Camp and teen enrichment offerings (summer kick off, night activities, drop-in open - <br />gym, soccer club). <br />BACKGROUND <br />As a part of the pandemic -related budget reductions all teen programming at Tukwila <br />Community Center was eliminated. Staff have been able to bring back a couple of activities for <br />the school year with the limited budget that was left for teens. However, with the use of the <br />ARPA funds, staff will be able to bring back the summer offerings for Tukwila Teens. <br />DISCUSSION <br />Staff will use all the Summer Camp ARPA allocation to fully fund Teen Summer Camp & <br />Enrichment Programs in summer 2022. Staff will track these costs within the Teen Programs <br />Budget in the financial system. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />There will be no new financial impact to the budget. This will require Finance to make budget <br />adjustments to allocate the funding and track expenditures in the proper budget groups within <br />the Parks & Recreation Budget. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Information only. <br />3 <br />
