(A) The City Council declares its intention of maintaining and improving the municipal zoo at its present location, commonly known as Rio Grande Park, in Albuquerque. The City Council recognizes that many people in the community have a special interest in the preservation of and enlargement of the municipal zoo and that some of them have together formed a corporation called "The Zoological Society (Foundation) and Botanical Gardens of Albuquerque, Inc." Membership in this organization is open to everyone and special classifications have been prepared so that membership may be extended, particularly to children and students and that they may be encouraged to develop an interest and understanding of the purposes of the Society.
(B) The Council further finds that the objects and purposes for which the Society is formed are:
(1) To engage in the promotion, encouragement, fostering and cultivation of zoological gardens and museums of natural history in Albuquerque, and the support of a program collecting, exhibiting and maintaining live animals, fowl, insects, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals and other species of wildlife in appropriate surroundings and environment inducive to family recreation and education, to stimulate scientific study and research; and to operate exclusively for charitable, scientific or educational purposes.
(2) To solicit, collect, receive, acquire, hold and invest money and property, both real and personal, received by gift, contribution, bequest, devise or otherwise; to sell and convert property, both real and personal, into cash; and to use the funds of this corporation for any of the purposes for which this corporation is formed.
(C) The Council further finds that these purposes of the Zoological Society are consistent and harmonious with the program for development of the Albuquerque Zoo and that the public will be served by coordinating and advancing these common purposes together.
