Beginning December 1, 2009, and annually thereafter, the commissioner shall submit a report to the council for the immediately preceding fiscal year on funds and the value of goods donated by non-governmental sources to the department for parks under the jurisdiction of the department. Such report shall include (i) the amount of funds and the value of goods donated by organizations or individuals to the department by park where such funding or goods are designated for a particular park, or by service district or borough if there is no such designation, provided that such funds or goods are valued at more than five thousand dollars; and (ii) where the department has entered into a conservancy arrangement, as defined by section 18-137 of this chapter, with a conservancy, as defined by section 18-137 of this chapter, to provide maintenance and operation services for a park or portion of a park under the jurisdiction of the department, the department shall require such entity to provide data to the department concerning the total amount of expenditures made by such entity for such park or portion of a park. The department shall require that any conservancy that enters into or renews a conservancy arrangement with the department after July 1, 2015, concerning a park or portion of a park under the jurisdiction of the department, provide the department with the data regarding its expenditures for such a park or portion of a park. Prior to July 1, 2015, the department shall, where practicable, seek such information from any conservancy with whom the department has an existing conservancy arrangement, provided that where the department is unable to obtain such information from such conservancy, it shall state the reason why such information was not able to be obtained. Such report, to the extent practicable, shall list organizations and individuals donating funds and goods to the department, provided that any such organization or individual donating funds or goods anonymously shall be listed without identifying information.
