MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL:1°f 1,i9-1L 7
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Jeremy Laurentowski, Parks and Recreation Director6L"
PREPARED BY: Stephanie Anderson, Recreation Services Manager
DATE: July 6, 2017 (CC Meeting of 07/19/17)
SUBJECT: Consider City Co-sponsorship of the Rotary Club of Moorpark
Noontime 2017 Moorpark Mammoth Run Event
BACKGROUND
In 2014, 2015, and 2016, the City Council approved a request from the Rotary Club of
Moorpark Noontime (Rotary) to co-sponsor the Moorpark Mammoth Run event
(Mammoth Run). The Rotary is planning the fourth annual Mammoth Run scheduled for
Sunday, October 8, 2017, and has requested co-sponsorship of the event.
For the past three years, the Rotary provided volunteers to plan and work at the event,
managed participant registrations and fees, and assisted with marketing the event. The
City notified residents about the run, prepared the traffic plan, and purchased event
insurance. Rotary reimbursed the City for any direct costs to the City, and paid a
percentage of net profit to the City to cover some of the City's overhead and staff costs.
DISCUSSION
The 2017 Moorpark Mammoth Run will feature a 10K run, 5K run and family fun run.
The event will be staged at Mammoth Highlands Park and will include a health and
fitness fair, food vendors, and music. The proposed course will include the multi-use
trails _ that extend north from Mammoth Highlands Park, around the Pinnacles
development and portions of Spring Road. The course will include an improved dirt trail
that extends south of Mammoth Park, as well as a half mile section along the bicycle
path on the south side of Elk Run Loop. The course will vary depending on the distance
of the scheduled run. Staff changed the course slightly last year so that a road closure
was not required at the Walnut Canyon Road and Spring Road intersection, or at the
intersection of High Street and Spring Road. Staff intends to keep the course on the
east side of Spring Road, which will eliminate the course from crossing Spring Road at
the Walnut Canyon Road or Elk Run Loop intersections. The course will require two

controlled intersections, one at Ridgecrest Drive and Spring Road and the other at Elk
Run Loop and Spring Road, as well as the closure of the bicycle lane on the east side of
Spring Road from Charles Street to Walnut Canyon Road. In addition, the bicycle lane
on the north side of Elk Run Loop, as well as the north and south sides of Ridgecrest
Drive will be closed to bicycle traffic, as it will be required for event parking. Moorpark
Police will direct traffic at the controlled intersections. Volunteers will monitor vehicular
traffic at minor intersections, such as the entries to the several gated communities, and
City staff will cover no parking signs on Elk Run Loop and Ridgecrest Drive as
necessary for parking.
As in prior years, the City will be responsible for notification of the residents, preparation
of a traffic control plan, trail preparation and grading, medical response, special event
insurance, and will share responsibilities for the course set-up. The Rotary will be
responsible for procurement of traffic control services, event registration, marketing and
materials, certified timing for the run, course certification, event website, sponsorships,
signage, volunteers, prizes, shirts and reimbursement of City's direct costs.
To memorialize each organization's responsibilities, staff has prepared a Letter of
Agreement between the Rotary and the City of Moorpark outlining the co-sponsorship
responsibilities and costs.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City will absorb overhead costs associated with use of City facilities and issuance
of a "no fee" Encroachment Permit. Fees waived for rental of Mammoth Highlands Park
Pavilion and Athletic Field equates to $220. The City shall receive 10% of the net profit
generated from the Mammoth Run to cover full time management staff costs. The
Rotary will reimburse the City for all other direct costs, such as part time and full time
competitive services staff costs (non-management staff), police services, medical
response, and special event insurance, and shall retain the remaining revenue to cover
their direct costs and make donations to various charity organizations. Costs to be
reimbursed to the City by the Rotary for the event are estimated at $500 for special
event insurance, $700 for medical response services, and $1,000 for police services.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve City co-sponsorship of the Rotary Club of Moorpark Noontime 2017 Moorpark
Mammoth Run as outlined in the staff report, subject to final language approval of the
Letter of Agreement, Indemnification, and Hold Harmless by the City Manager.
