RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council approve a Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU) between the City of Culver City and the Culver City Senior Citizens
Association (CCSCA) which memorializes the rights, responsibilities, and duties of
the parties with respect to the provision of senior citizen services at various City-
owned facilities including the Culver City Senior Center.
BACKGROUND:
The City and CCSCA have enjoyed a long, positive, and mutually beneficial
relationship. For decades, both parties have shared resources, talents, and
knowledge to provide the senior citizen community (from Culver City and
surrounding areas) with high quality programs. Since opening in 2003, the Culver
City Senior Center has been the “headquarters” for such programming.
Over the past 10+ years, membership in the CCSCA has steadily increased and
currently consists of approximately 4,000 members. With the increase in
membership and the general aging of the community, the number of programs
offered, along with the complexity of such programs, has also changed. Because of
these changes, both staff and the Board of the CCSCA agree that the time has
come to memorialize this decades-long informal relationship with a written
agreement.

Agenda Item Report
DISCUSSION:
Over the past several months, staff has met with members of the Executive Board of
the CCSCA to draft a Memorandum of Understanding between the City and CCSCA.
The proposed document spells out in some detail the rights, responsibilities, and
duties of both parties with respect to programming produced by CCSCA or
cooperatively by the CCSCA and the City. Even though the document is new for the
parties, as summarized by one of the Executive Board members: “It puts in writing
what we’ve already been doing for years.”
The CCSCA Board met on December 3, 2013 and unanimously approved the
document as presented this evening. The City Council is requested to provide its
approval.
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
Approval of the proposed MOU does not create additional fiscal impacts for the City.
