City Council Meeting
MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL 1 --___._ ._.,Ao,OS"0.011
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Hugh R. Riley, Assistant City Manager
DATE: September 23, 2011 (CC Meeting of 10/05/11)
SUBJECT: Consider Waiving Rental Fees at the High Street Arts Center
for the ABC 7 Listens Event Scheduled for October 12, 2011
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION
ABC7's News, Programming and Public Affairs Departments will be in Moorpark on
October 12, 2011, at the High Street Arts Center to meet with community leaders and
residents to hear from them about local issues and stories that affect Moorpark.
Information will be available on how to access the television station for news stories,
promoting non-profit events and job opportunities. This event is part of a series of such
meetings throughout the station's Southern California viewing area. The sponsor will
provide promotion throughout the community, refreshments and will pay for sound and
lighting technical staff. The rental rate for the Center for the event which is considered a
"Performance" would normally be $375.
Staff believes this event is an excellent opportunity to promote the High Street Arts
Center and introduce the facility to residents that have not attended events there in the
past. In addition the event presents significant exposure for the High Street Arts Center.
Together these advantages out-weigh the loss of the rental fee. According to ABC7,
most communities hosting the event have provided facilities free of charge.
FISCAL IMPACT
This action would result in the loss of rental revenue for the High Street Arts Center of
$375.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Waive the rental fee at the High Street Arts Center for the ABC7 Listens Event on
October 12, 2011.
