RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Culver City Redevelopment Agency (“The Agency”) approve
a two-year extension to the Professional Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) with
Jack Luckey for Farmers’ Market manager assistant services through June 30, 2009.
BACKGROUND/ DISCUSSION:
The Agency originally approved an agreement with Jack Luckey to act as manager
assistant of the Culver City Certified Farmers’ Market (the “Market”) on March 23,
2004, to run through June 30, 2005. The agreement was subsequently extended
through June 30, 2007. Mr. Luckey’s weekly duties include assisting with the
physical set-up of the Market, supervision of volunteers and vendors, allocation of
space to farmers and vendors, and other duties as deemed appropriate by the
Farmers’ Market manager. Mr. Luckey will continue to have limited hours, not to
exceed 10 hours per week.
The proposed amendment to Mr. Luckey’s contract will extend the terms of the
agreement through June 30, 2009, and will increase his compensation from $10.00
per hour to $12.00 per hour, without benefits. This increase brings the rate paid to
Mr. Luckey in line with the rates paid to market manager assistants in other
comparable cities. Staff’s survey of farmers’ market manager assistants in Beverly
Hills, Burbank, Torrance and Westwood Village indicates the typical salary for this
position ranges from $10.00 to $15.00 per hour.

cover this increased cost and there are sufficient funds allocated to Account

2007-08 and approved 2008-09 budget to meet this expenditure.
