DATE: April 26, 1991 SUBJECT: Consider Chamber of Commerce Request for City Contribution to Concert in the Sky on July 3, 1991 The attached April 22, 1991 letter from the Moorpark Chamber of Commerce requests City Council approval to fund the law enforcement costs for the July 3 , 1991 Concert in the Sky event at a cost not to exceed $4 , 000. The City has funded this service the past two years. In March 1991, the Chamber requested consideration for City funding of $16, 200 for a second twelve month contract to provide certain services. On March 20, 1991, the Council extended the agreement for two months with additional compensation of $2 , 000 and agreed to consider the Chamber's proposal during the 1991-92 budget deliberations. As part of the budget deliberations, the Council will also consider financial assistance for Moorpark Country Days. In 1990-91, $6,400 was budgeted to fund law enforcement related costs for the parade and daytime portion of the festivities. These three items total $26, 200 and should be considered during budget deliberations. The Council 's action on the request for the July 3 event should, however, be made as soon as possible so the Chamber can plan accordingly. Waiting to make a decision until the usual budget adoption in late June could impact the Chamber ' s plans for the event. On the other hand, the Council is aware of the magnitude of the projected State budget deficits and the uncertain impact its resolution may have on State subventions and/or newly imposed costs for cities. It is recommended that this request be referred to the Budget and Finance Committee, with a report back to the Council on June 5, 1991. The City's preliminary draft budget is expected to be available at that time. PAUL W. LAWRASON JR BERNARDO M, PEREZ SCOTT MONTGOMERY ROY E.

Although a significant number of vehicles drove into the area , very few traffic problems arose. One minor traffic accident did occur.
