(c) If any of the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) or (b) above are not met with respect to any contract to which the City is a party, then the Mayor shall, prior to executing any such contract, obtain express authorization from the City Council. 131.06 AUTHORITY TO ACCEPT DONATIONS. (a) The Mayor is authorized to accept donations of money and/or personal property on behalf of the City, so long as: (1) The donation represents an unconditional gift by the donor; (2) The donation does not require that the City provide any matching funds or property; and (3) The fair market value of the donation does not exceed two thousand dollars ($2,000.00). (4) The donation is not offered by a company, organization or person currently engaged in a contract with the City, or has applications for approval pending before the City, or has bidding or other contract proposals pending for review by the City. (5) The donation does not propose the improvement of public property, including real estate, buildings, and fixtures, and does not propose the donation of personal property, in kind, valued at more than two thousand ($2,000.00) dollars. (b) Upon accepting any such donation of money or personal property that has a value of at least five hundred dollars ($500.00) the Mayor shall submit a report to the Clerk of Council approved as to form and substance by the Director of Law, which shall state the purpose for which the donation has been made by the donor and, if the donation is money, the City fund into which the donation shall be deposited. (c) The Mayor must report to Council the aggregate amount of all donations accepted each year pursuant to subsection (a) as not individually having exceed two thousand dollars ($2,000.00). This report shall identify the donations and the amount of each donation, as well as the donor, and must be submitted to Council within thirty (30) days of the end of the year. (d) For purposes of this section, an "unconditional" gift is one in which there is no obligation imposed by the donor upon the City as a condition of acceptance. A gift shall not be considered "conditional" if the donor simply restricts the use of the gift to a particular department or division of the City, or, if the gift is money, the fund into which the money shall be deposited.
