RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD
FINDING THAT A PUBLIC PURPOSE IS SERVED BY APPROVING THE
DONATION AND TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP OF A CITY-OWNED
VEHICLE TO THE LYNWOOD PARTNERS EDUCATIONAL
FOUNDATION FOR A PUBLIC CAR RAFFLE TO BENEFIT
SCHOLARSHIPS FOR LYNWOOD STUDENTS
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Lynwood endeavors to promote
community, charitable and similar activities in Lynwood that have an appropriate public
purpose, consistent with the provisions of the California Constitution, Art. XVI, sec. 6; and
WHEREAS, while the City encourages organizers of community charitable
activities in Lynwood to obtain their funding and other support independent of City
support, a Donation/Fee Waiver policy provides a procedure for City support of non-profit
entities who participate in and promote events that are beneficial to the community or
otherwise provide a valid and substantial public purpose within the mission of the City
and demonstrate a need for assistance; and
WHEREAS, as part of the City's Centennial activities in 2021, the City received a
donation that was used to purchase a vehicle to be raffled to the public and that all
proceeds were to be used to benefit scholarships to Lynwood students under the
Lynwood Partners Educational Foundation.
WHEREAS, it was subsequently determined that the Lynwood Partners
Educational Foundation was better suited, as a non-profit agency, to operate the raffle
program directly and the City now intends to donate and transfer ownership of the vehicle
to the foundation.
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the donation and transfer of
ownership of the vehicle to the Lynwood Partners Educational Foundation meets the
criteria set forth in the City's Donation/Fee Waiver Policy.

Section 1. The City Council for the City of Lynwood finds and declares that the
foregoing recitals are true and correct, and incorporates said recitals fully
into this Resolution as substantive findings.

1
used for a car raffle with all proceeds benefitting Lynwood Partners
Educational Foundation scholarships for Lynwood students.
Section 3. The City Council for the City of Lynwood finds and declares that this
donation (valued at $16,648.29) provides a significant public benefit and
that it meets the stipulations of the City's Donation/Fee Waiver Policy.
Section 4. That the City Manager is authorized to negotiate and execute all
agreements and donation/transfer documents as related to the ownership
transfer of the named vehicle from the City of Lynwood to the Lynwood
Partners Educational Foundation and the resulting charity raffle of the
