SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3457-2026 - Accepting and Appropriating Donations

The original donation, made in 2022, has accrued additional funds for a total of $8,996.92.
Ordinance 3457-2025 will appropriate these funds from the Kenai Community Foundation into the
capital project for new dugouts at the Softball field.
