<br />, <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />ITEM 3 - CPRS CONFERENCE-SAN DIEGO <br /> <br />Chairperson Swope gave the Commissioners a written report of her <br />attendance at the CPRS Conference held in San Diego in February. She <br />reviewed the sessions she attended and the information she obtained which <br />she felt would be of assistance to the Commission. Chairperson Swope spoke <br />about the session on collaborative solutions for fund development and how a <br />Redwood City Community Foundation could be formed by the various City <br />Commissions and could be used as a vehicle for people to donate to. Speaker <br />Jill Moore of California Community Foundation discussed how her <br />foundation has helped local government bodies start endowments and <br />manages them using earned (not donated) income. Chairperson Swope said <br />she would talk to the San Francisco and Peninsula Community Foundations <br />as possible alternatives. She said she spoke to some City Councilmembers <br />who were enthused by the concept. It was noted that Pete Hughes had <br />previously mentioned that he knew an attorney that might be available to <br />work pro-bono on this matter.
