The Fund for Lexington will supplement the Human Services Fund to ensure at least $5,000 is <br />distributed annually. The Human Services Coordinator will report quarterly on the distribution of <br />funds to both the Fund for Lexington and the Public Trusts. <br />2. For `large requests' i.e. those that could deplete the Human Services Fund, the Human Services <br />Coordinator, after appropriate internal review, will continue to present cases to the Fund for <br />Lexington Board. Approval of these expenditures may be by poll vote (Phone or e -mail) with <br />subsequent ratification at a scheduled meeting. <br />3.
