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 2015 Fiesta La Ballona.
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 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 2015 Fiesta will be held on Friday, August 28, Saturday, August 29, and,
Sunday, August 30. The Fiesta La Ballona Committee would like to offer a BWG for
Fiesta 2015 and is once again recommending the Exchange Club as the BWG City of Culver City, California
Agenda Item Report
vendor. The Exchange Club desires to sponsor the BWG for Fiesta 2015 under the
same conditions as those imposed by the City for Fiesta 2014.
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 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 as additional insureds.
The BWG Hours of Operation
As agreed upon by City staff, the Fiesta Committee, and the Exchange Club, the
proposed hours of operation of the BWG for 2015 are as follows:
Friday, August 28, 2015
? 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.

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
conditions deal with issues pertaining to enforcement regarding minors and safety
procedures, among others. The Exchange Club will have its volunteers trained in City of Culver City, California
Agenda Item Report
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).
