MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
TO: Indian River County Historical Society
RE: Sebastian Working Waterfront Museum/Exhibit Center
DATE: 01 May 2014
Please reference my 14 April 2014 MEMO to the Indian River County Historical
Society (IRCHS) requesting the Society's assistance in providing curator services
in developing the exhibit center and museum at Fisherman's Landing Sebastian. I
am appreciative of the Society's response of 14 April 2014 that expresses a
willingness to participate in the process of the museum development. It is in that
context that I offer this Memorandum of Understanding:
1. The City of Sebastian will provide funding for curator services to the
IRCHS to develop the Fisherman's Landing Sebastian Museum.
2. The IRCHS will develop the museum as a cultural heritage institution,
will act as the on-site content specialist, and will be responsible for the
interpretation of heritage material.
3. The IRCHS will use `best effort' financial management skills in
utilizing City provided funding to develop the museum. The IRCHS
will use commonly accepted financial, and records management,
practices in accounting for City provided funds.
4. The City will retain ownership of all items purchased with City
provided funds evidenced with a yearly inventory provided to the City.
It is with a deep sense of gratitude that the IRCHS has agreed to participate in the
development of this important historical site. On behalf of the City, please accept
our sincere thanks for your many contributions.
