RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution granting a permit to the Culver
City Exchange Club (Exchange Club) to conduct a Beer and Wine Garden in
Veterans’ Memorial Park during the 2014 Fiesta La Ballona (Attachment 1).
BACKGROUND:
Culver City Municipal Code (CCMC) Section 13.03.025(A) grants the City Council
authority to issue a permit for a beer and wine garden at the City’s Fiesta La Ballona
event. The Beer and Wine Garden (BWG) has been a part of the Fiesta La Ballona
(Fiesta) since 2005. The Exchange Club has been the permittee for the BWG since
2007.
The Exchange Club is a local non-profit organization that is dedicated to providing
financial support to various community-based organizations benefiting children,
seniors, and those with disabilities. The Exchange Club co-sponsors other annual
events with the City of Culver City, including the “Cruisin’ Back to the 50’s” Culver
City Car Show and the Carnival for Children with Disabilities.
DISCUSSION:
The 2014 Fiesta will be held on Friday, August 22, Saturday, August 23, and,
Sunday, August 24. The Fiesta La Ballona Committee would like to offer a BWG
during the 2014 Fiesta and is, once again, recommending the Exchange Club as the City of Culver City, California
Agenda Item Report
BWG vendor. The Exchange Club desires to sponsor the BWG for the 2014 Fiesta
under similar conditions as those imposed by the City for the 2013 Fiesta.
Liability and Insurance Requirement
The insurance requirement for the BWG is one million dollars ($1,000,000) general
liability insurance, per occurrence, including liquor liability. According to the
conditions of the proposed Permit, the Exchange Club must submit the required
evidence of insurance at least two weeks prior to the 2014 Fiesta. The City
Attorney’s Office will review the insurance policy and verify that, in addition to
coverage for general liability, the policy includes liquor liability coverage and has
added the City of Culver City and the Fiesta Committee as additional insureds.
The BWG Hours of Operation
As agreed upon by City staff, the Fiesta La Ballona Committee, and the Exchange
Club, the proposed hours of operation of the BWG are as follows:
Friday, August 22, 2014
? Fiesta entertainment ends at 9:15 p.m.
? BWG last call at 9:00 p.m. and no drinks served past 9:15 p.m.
? Food vendor sales end @ 9:15 p.m.
? BWG closes at 9:30 p.m.
? Fiesta ends at 10:00 p.m.

Other Conditions
The Exchange Club is willing and able to comply with all of the other conditions
imposed during previous Fiestas. As set forth in the proposed resolution, other City of Culver City, California
Agenda Item Report
conditions deal with issues pertaining to enforcement regarding minors and safety
procedures, among others. The Exchange Club will have its volunteers trained in
applicable laws regarding liquor sales and provide the necessary supervision
required to ensure laws are enforced.
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
The adoption of the proposed resolution will have a nominal positive fiscal impact to
the City due to the $600 event space fee that will be charged to the Exchange Club
for the use of the area within Veterans’ Memorial Park which the BWG occupies
during the Fiesta. This revenue will be deposited in the General Fund (Account
10130285: Community Events - Fiesta La Ballona).
