Adjournment Pledge Next week: Leonard ITEM 2 Revised Draft TOWN OF RIVER BEND POLICY ON DONATIONS AND SPONSORSHIPS Statement of Policy The Town of River Bend (hereinafter "Town") will allow donations to be made to the Town. In allowing sponsorships, the Town will seek sponsors that further its mission by providing monetary or in-kind support for Town programs or services. The Town recognizes that the public trust and perception of its impartiality may be damaged by sponsorships that are aesthetically displeasing, politically oriented, or offensive to segments ofits citizenry. When the Town loses public trust and public perception ofimpartiality, its ability to govern effectively in the interest of its citizens is impaired. Therefore, the Town permits private sponsorship of government programs or services in limited circumstances as a means to generate funds fori improving or expanding those programs and services. The Town maintains its sponsorship program as a nonpublic forum and exercises sole discretion over who is eligible to become a sponsor according to the terms of this policy. Whenever possible, sponsorships should be linked to specific Town-related activities, events, programs, or publications. The Town will neither seek nor accept sponsors that manufacture products or take positions inconsistent with local, state, or federal law or with Town policies, positions, or resolutions. The establishment of a sponsorship agreement does not constitute an endorsement by the Town oft the sponsor's organization, products, or services. Definition of'Terms "Donation" is a voluntary monetary or in-kind contribution with no expectation of promotional benefits or sponsorship. "Sponsorship" is the right of an external entity (for-profit or not-for-profit) to associate its name, products, or services with the Town's programs, services, properties, or name. Sponsorship is a business relationship in which the Town and the external entity exchange goods and/or services for the public display of a message on the Town's property acknowledging private support. The use of a private event space for a Town activity, event, program, or publication, as allowed by $ 3.05.005 of the Town's Ordinances, and subsequent designation of that private event space as the location for an activity, event, program, or publication in promotional materials is not in and ofi itself a sponsorship. For example, an advisory board event held at a restaurant and advertised as being held at said restaurant shall not be considered a sponsorship of that advisory board event. However, to the extent promotional materials for a Town activity, event, program or publication identifies the provider of a private space as a "partner,' 29 "co-sponsor, or similar status, that designation would be considered a sponsorship for the purposes oft this Policy. Page 1 of 4 ITEM 2 Authority Structure for Review and Approval The Town possesses sole and final decision-making authority for determining the appropriateness ofa a sponsorship relationship and/or an offer of a donation and reserves the right to refuse any offer ofs sponsorship or donation. Sponsorship agreement proposals and donations offers will be reviewed according to the following procedures and guidelines: All sponsorship agreement proposals and donation offers shall be approved in consultation with the Town Manager or his/her designee. Sponsorship agreement proposals or donation offers projected to generate $1,000 or less shall (in actual monetary benefit of estimated in-kind benefit) require the written approval oft the Town Manager, who shall inform the Town Council. Sponsorship agreement proposals or donations offers projected to generate more than $1,000 (in actual monetary benefit of estimated in-kind benefit) shall require the written approval of the Town Council. In the discretion of the Town Manager, any proposed sponsorship agreement or donation offer may be referred to the Town Council for its approval. Criteria for Sponsorship Proposal Review Proposals for sponsorship of Town programs or services shall be reviewed on the basis of a draft memorandum of understanding that clearly outlines the forms of support offered by the sponsor and the recognition to be given by the Town. The Town Manager may develop and implement a form that entities may use to submit this draft memorandum of understanding. A memorandum of understanding shall be created for each sponsorship relationship. It shall detail the following information, at a minimum: Activities, products, and services of the private entity and its subsidiaries; Benefits to be given to the proposed sponsor by the Town, and the estimated monetary value of those benefits; Benefits to be given to the Town by the proposed sponsor and the estimated monetary value oft those benefits; Prominence of the proposed public recognition of support; Content oft the proposed public recognition of support; Duration of the proposed public recognition of support; and Conditions under which the sponsorship agreement will be terminated. Page 2 of 4 ITEM 2 The Town recognizes that entering into a sponsorship agreement with an external entity does not constitute an endorsement oft the entity or its services and products but does imply an affiliation. Such affiliation can affect the reputation of the Town among its citizens and its ability to govern effectively. Therefore, any proposal for sponsorship of a Town program or service in which the involvement of an outside entity compromises the public's perception of the Town's neutrality or its ability to act in the public interest will be rejected. The Town shall consider the following criteria before entering into a sponsorship agreement: Extent and prominence of the public display of sponsorship; Aesthetic characteristics ofthe public display of sponsorship; Importance of the sponsorship to the mission of the Town; Level of support provided by the sponsor; Inconsistencies between Town policies and the known policies or practices ofthe potential sponsor; and Other factors that might undermine public confidence in the Town's impartiality or interfere with the efficient delivery of Town services or operations, including, but not limited to, current or potential conflicts of interest between the sponsor and Town employees, officials, or affiliates; and the potential for the sponsorship to tarnish the Town's standing among its citizens or otherwise impair the ability of the Town to govern its citizens. Permissible Sponsors and Message Content Sponsorships on Town property are maintained as a nonpublic forum. The Town intends to preserve its rights and discretion to exercise full editorial control over the placement, content, appearance, and wording of sponsorship affiliations and messages. The Town may make distinctions on the appropriateness of sponsors on the basis of subject matter of a potential sponsorship recognition message. The Town will not deny sponsorship opportunities on the basis ofthe potential sponsor's S viewpoint. Sponsorship from an organization that is engaged in any of the following activities, that has a mission supporting any oft the following subject matters, or that, in the sole discretion and judgment of the Town Manager, is deemed to be unsuitable for and contrary to community standards of appropriateness for government publications, shall be prohibited on any Town property: Promotion of the sale or consumption of alcoholic beverages, or promotion of establishments that are licensed to sell and primarily do sell alcoholic beverages, including bars; provided, however, that food service establishments or places of lodging may be authorized only when the sale of alcohol is incidental to providing food service or lodging; Page 3 of 4 ITEM 2 Promotion of the sale or consumption of tobacco products; Promotion of the sale of birth control products or services; Commentary, advocacy, or promotion ofi issues, candidates, and campaigns pertaining to political elections; Depiction in any form of profanity or obscenity, or promotion of sexually oriented products, activities, or materials; Promotion of the sale or use of firearms, explosives, or other weapons, or glorification of violent acts; and Promotion or depiction of illegal products, or glorification of illegal products, activities, or materials. Permissible Recognition Messages Sponsorship recognition messages may identify the sponsor but should not promote or endorse the organization or its products or services. Statements that advocate, contain price information or an indication of associated savings or value, request a response, or contain comparative or qualitative descriptions of products, services, or organizations will not be accepted. Only the following content will be deemed appropriate: The legally recognized name of the advertising organization; The advertiser's organizational slogan ifit identifies rather than promotes the organization or its products or services; The advertiser's product or service line, described in brief, generic, objective terms. Generally, only one product or service line may be identified; and Brief contact information for the advertiser's organization, such as phone number, address, or Internet website. Contact information must be stated in a manner that avoids an implication of urging the reader to action. The Town will not make any statements that directly or indirectly advocate or endorse a sponsor's organization, products, or services. No materials or communications, including, but not limited to, print, video, Internet, broadcast, or display items developed to promote or communicate the sponsorship using the Town's name, marks, or logo, may be issued without written approval from the Town Manager.

I want to express my gratitude for your support ofthe CPRL bookmobile and tech services that we provide to your residents. We are requesting funding of$2,921.00 in your FY26 budget. This is a pledge of$1.00 per: resident, to help cover the library's operational expenses. As a vital government entity and integral part oft the Craven County infrastructure, the New Bern-Craven County Public Library relies heavily on county and state funding for its operations. The level of state and grant funding we receive each year is directly influenced by the support from local governments, both county and municipal. For 49 years, the New Bern-Craven County Public Library has been a cornerstone of our community, providing essential reading and literacy services to residents across Craven County, including River Bend. Our library serves as a hub for personal and professional growth, offering high-speed internet access, updated computers, technical support and training, and a diverse range ofbooks in both print and electronic formats. In the first 8 months ofFY25, the library circulated over 90,000 books and hotspots, while the circulation of electronic resources (eBooks and eAudiobooks) saw a 21% increase. Moreover, we developed programming for toddlers and teens, providing new parents with opportunities to socialize and engage. In FY24 and FY25, the library successfully provided monthly outreach to River Bend via the CPRL Book/Techmobile. We also offered monthly tech classes, assisting residents with their computers and phones. As the town prepares its budget for the next fiscal year, I urge you to prioritize library funding. The allocation of $2,920.00 will be divided as follows: $2,120 for new print and electronic books, $550 for Bookmobile operations, and $250 for enriching programs for seniors at the New Bern Library. Should you have any questions regarding our library's offerings or usage statistics, orifs you would like to discuss this further at a town council meeting, please feel free to contact me at 252-638-7812. Thank you for considering our request.
