Comments:
WeWork paid for a dinner with local business leaders in which the City and those leaders tried recruit WeWork to
open a facility in Bozeman. WeWork meets an important office space need for rapidly growing startups and small
businesses and would be a excellent addition to the Bozeman business ecosystem.The City assisted WeWork
with organizing the event. It is common practice for economic development organizations to pay the cost of
hosting such recruiting dinners. Since WeWork sponsored the dinner, we were able to host the event at no cost
to the City.Therefore the acceptance of food meets the criteria of acceptance of meals incurred while
representing the City that do not, "place or appear to place the official or employee under obligation, clearly
serves the public good, and is not lavish or extravagant." (City of Bozeman Ethics Handbook)
