Approve creating an expenditure fund to receive donations designated for the John F. Kennedy High School Girls Book Club

Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously approved creating a special fund to accept donations for John F. Kennedy High School's Girls Book Club. This allows community members and organizations to donate money specifically for the club's activities and book purchases, rather than having donations go into the city's general fund. Previously, there was no mechanism for people to earmark donations directly for this student group. This is a routine administrative measure that doesn't involve city money but simply creates the paperwork structure needed to handle targeted donations.
