RCI or a sponsoring community organization may choose to provide formal gifts according to their internal budget and approval processes. Gifts or memorabilia presented to a representative of the City of Redwood City which are intended for the City become the property of the City and shall be displayed at a City facility or distributed at the City's discretion.

Terminating a Sister City or Friendship City Affiliation or Placing a Sister City on Emeritus Status Sister City affiliations are meant to be long-standing official city linkages that involve extensive community participation beyond government. For a variety of reasons, a Sister City relationship may lose community interest and support, and the City of Redwood City or the Sister City may opt to place the relationship into emeritus status or to terminate the Sister City relationship. If a Sister City affiliation is inactive for a period of three years or longer, or if there is a lack of community support through RCI or the community sponsoring organization for the Sister City relationship to continue, the City may initiate the process to place the relationship into emeritus status or to terminate the Sister City affiliation with the Sister City and inform Sister Cities International. The Mayor or his or her designee will send a letter to the Mayor or lead representative of the Sister City to express the City's intent to end the Sister City affiliation or place the Sister City affiliation on hold in emeritus status. The Mayor or their designee will then notify Sister Cities International that the Sister City affiliation with the City in question has ended or is placed in emeritus status. Sister Cities International will decertify the Sister City affiliation or place the Sister City affiliation on emeritus status. A Friendship City affiliation may be terminated when such action is deemed appropriate by either city. The Mayor or their designee will send a letter to the Mayor or lead representative of the Friendship City to express the City's intent to end the Friendship City affiliation. October 23, 2017 Page 6
