A copy has been provided to all City residences and business addresses without charge. This has been a part of the Chamber services provided pursuant to their Agreement with the City of Moorpark. For the fiscal year ended June 30 1992 the City of Moorpark paid the Chamber of Commerce $9000.00 to provide this and other services pursuant to the referenced Agreement. Discussion The Chamber of Commerce has contracted with the Moorpark Business Service Center to produce and publish the directory. On October 1, 1992 the City was informed that the directory would not be published because the amount of advertising required for publishing was not achieved. Regardless of any of the possible reasons for this, from the City's standpoint it is an integral part of the City's and Chamber's combined economic development efforts and pending "Shop Local" promotion. For the past two years the directory has proven to be a handy guide for referencing Moorpark businesses by City residents. The directory needs approximately $8000.00 additional advertising revenue in order to be published. Chamber of Commerce President, Robert Abrams, and Sandy Brown, of the Moorpark Business Service Center, have both expressed a commitment to making an additional effort to have the directory published. To help achieve this goal, the City Council is asked to consider a monetary contribution. This would be done through an extension of the Agreement with the Chamber of Commerce. It is proposed that the City contribute PAUL W. LAWRASON JR. JOHN E. WOZNIAK SCOTT MONTGOMERY BERNARDO M PEREZ ROY E. TALLEY JR. Mayor Mayor Pro Tem Councilmember Councilmember Councilmember Printed On Recycled Paper $3000.00 for the publishing of the directory. This would leave approximately $5000.00 in additional advertising to be obtained. The City and Chamber would work cooperatively to seek the support from the business community. City funds could from the Gann fund balance. As the Council will recall from a June 26, 1992 memorandum from me, $384,554 of Gann funds remain available. One of the recommendations for appropriation of these funds was $30,000 for a part time Economic Development Coordinator position in this fiscal year. The Council deferred approval of these appropriations until after the State budget was enacted. The Council is scheduled to consider revisions to the adopted budget including appropriation of these Gann funds on October 21st. Publishing of the directory is an important component of an overall economic development program for the City. If the additional effort is successful it is hoped that the directory could be published and delivered during the month of December; however, with this extension to seek additional advertising it may delay delivery until Jan 1993. Staff Recommendation Approve City assistance, appropriate $3,000.00 from Gann Fund and authorize City Manager to work with Chamber of Commerce on this item. MOORPARK 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864 MEMORANDUM TO: The Honorable City Council { /�/ FROM: Steven Rueny, City Manager it DATE: June 26, 1992 SUBJECT: Available Gann Funds City staff has calculated the amount of money available in the Gann Fund as of June 30, 1992. The amount is estimated at $783,857. A copy of staff's Gann recap is attached. This amount is exclusive of Council's recent action designating $50,000 for the Boys and Girls Club as well as other 1991/92 expenditures. Of the estimated $783,857 available at June 30, 1992, $399,303 is part of the amount previously appropriated by the City Council. As a result of the recent Council action designating an additional $150,000 of CDBG funds for Charles Street, only .an, estimated $30,000 of additional Gann Funds is needed for Phase 1 of this project. This leaves an estimated $96,303 of the original $250,000 appropriated for streets available for other street improvements or for other uses as determined by the Council. As you are aware, the Council has the option of extending the appropriations as previously approved or designating different uses for these funds. I recommend extending these appropriations with the possible exception of the $96,303 shown as available for other street improvements. PAUL W LAWRASON JR JOHN E WOZNIAK SCOTT MONTGOMERY BERNARDO M PE: III Z ROY E TAI I I v .n' Mayor Mayor Pro Tern Councilmember Counalmember Councdmemh-^ The Honorable City Council June 26, 1992 Page 2 I recommend use of the estimated $384,554 remaining Gann Funds as follows: 1. Arroyo Vista Community Park $200,000 2. Youth Services (3rd yr.) 25,000 3. Senior Citizen Coordinator 92/93 1 20,000 4. Senior Citizen Coordinator 93/94 1 22,000 5. Economic Development Coordinator 2 30,000 6. North Meadows Park Play Equipment 5,000 7. Police Services 80,000 8. Un- designated 2,554 TOTAL $384,554 As of this date, the State has not adopted its budget nor taken other actions impacting the City's VLF or other revenue. If the City of Moorpark is not adversely impacted by the State's action, the above recommendations can be considered by the Council. In the event State actions impact the City's budget, I recommend that the available Gann funds be used to address any revenue reductions or Cnew expenditure mandates. During the CDBG hearings, it was mentioned that the requests for funding AIDS and Alzheimers programs would be considered during the budget deliberations. The Council has not previously discussed this matter. Gann Funds could fund such programs. Alzheimers requested $5,000 and AIDS $25,000 in their formal CDBG requests. Staff Recommendation: Defer action on allocation of Gann Funds until the impact of State budget action is known.
