AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Honorable City Council '
FROM: Mary Lindley, Parks, Recreation & Community Services,'74
Director
PREPARED BY: Peggy Rothschild, Active Adult Center Supervisor
DATE: February 6, 2008 (CC Meeting of February 20, 2008)
SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Amending the Fiscal Year 2007/08 Budget
by Appropriating General Funds (Union Pacific Foundation
Funds) to Fund 25th Anniversary "My Hometown"
Photography Exhibit at the Moorpark Arts Festival
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The City has been awarded $2,500 by the Union Pacific Foundation Board to support
the "My Home Town" Project planned as part of the Moorpark Arts Festival set for May
4, 2008. The City Council is being asked to adopt a resolution (Attachment A),
amending the FY 07/08 budget to formally appropriate an additional $2,500 in funds for
the Arts Festival. Annually, the Union Pacific Foundation funds projects throughout the
country to communities which are located along Union Pacific Railroad lines. The Union
Pacific Foundation funds several areas of interest and has awarded this grant as part of
its Community and Civic program to assist organizations seeking to improve and enrich
the general quality of life in their community.
In conjunction with the 2007 Moorpark Arts Festival, a photo exhibit was organized
which asked school students to answer ten questions about our city through
photographs. The resulting images captured aspects of our small town that even long-
time residents had never seen. For the exhibit, three images from each participant were
selected, enlarged and matted along with a photograph of the student and a brief
biography.
The public response to the exhibit was overwhelmingly positive. As Moorpark
approaches its 25th anniversary, a means of commemorating our city has become
increasingly vital. By expanding the "My Home Town" project to encompass both adults
0 00 02'7
and school children in 2008, we will give our community the opportunity to see their city
from a variety of new perspectives.
The "My Home Town" art project and exhibition will give participants a chance to
capture Moorpark's changing face — as well as the faces of those within the community.
By working with both children and adults, this art project will involve the community at a
variety of levels and increase the diversity of imagery, providing a community -wide
"snapshot" of present day Moorpark.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City Council previously allocated $8,000 from the General Fund in the Fiscal Year
2007/08 budget to fund the 2008 Moorpark Arts Festival. The $2,500 in grant funds will
be used to offset additional costs related to the expanded "My Home Town"
photography project planned in conjunction with the City's 25th anniversary.
