  4. NFP Committee Process Tier 1 recommendations are an attempt to start the process and begin to align the BOS and BOF on future recommendations Tier 2 recommendations will be the follow-on with additional guidance and final conclusions

  5. NFP Committee Tier 1 Recommendations • That the Budget Director requires an application for all Not-For-Profit (NFP) entities applying for funds from the 2012/2013 budget. This application would set forth qualifying criteria and request data from the applicant, including (but not limited to): • IRS determination letter or proof of application for non-profit status. • Listing of current Board members. • Copy of your latest Financial Statement. (audited if revenues exceed $500,000) • Completed budget packet (data tailored to budget directors needs)

  6. NFP Committee Tier 1 Recommendations That the Town invests in non-profit entities partnering with the town. We suggest that the approach shift from that of charitable contribution to an investment in resources that support designated town goals and objectives. That the Town establishes goals and objectives to which NFP entities should align. This allows agencies to respond to the needs of the Town.

  7. NFP Committee Tier 1 Recommendations Create separate budget sub-sections under the "MISCELLANEOUS" category. Recommended headings may include state statute compliance, social services, education and culture. Each category should have a person or body appropriate to recommend and review NFP applications and monitor ongoing activities.

  8. NFP Committee Tier 2 Recommendations That the town designate a person, or group or create a new group who will review agency outcome measurements to determine if the agency funding is both a prudent investment and if services are being provided as requested. That the First Selectman refines and implements Town Goals and Objectives through a strategic process.

  9. NFP Committee Going Forward Request the NFP committee continues to work in order to further clarify Tier 2 recommendations. Implement full recommendations in the 2013/2014 budegt season.
