Agreement for Use of Successor Agency-Owned Property (Parcel
B) for the Events.
Mayor Sahli-Wells invited public participation.
The following members of the audience addressed the City
Council:
Laura Stuart commented on the presentation and the fact
that the City provides mixed signals regarding what the
City Council will and will not assist various groups with;
she noted that they were asking for waivers of electrical
costs and refuse; she discussed staff costs; costs that
are not easily absorbed; she felt that there should be
criteria or a form to fill out about different elements of
the events and clarify which costs can be waived and which
cannot be; and she felt that better guidance should be
available.
Responding to Mayor Sahli-Wells, Goran Eriksson indicated
that the Finance Advisory Committee had a subcommittee
that had been working on guidelines for City sponsorship April 13, 2015
15
and support of events; he indicated that recommendations
would be available by June; and he invited anyone who
wanted to provide input on the matter to attend a Finance
Advisory Committee meeting.
Discussion ensued between staff and Council Members
regarding the basis for the three additional requests made
this year; the general practice of keeping to the previous
level of sponsorship; previous participation by the
applicant; costs to hang banners; popularity of the event;
increasing the marketing budget; total requested amount of
waivers; the fiscal analysis; concern with consistency;
actual costs; income information to support the need for
the fee waiver; the unique nature of the event;
clarification that the for profit organization would be
donating the entire proceeds to humanitarian relief;
potential future Council directive that financial
statements associated with the events be provided; City
sponsorship as a way to help with marketing and making an
event viable; classification of costs; actual costs to the
City; concern with increasing the level of support; the
amount of soft costs requested; popularity of the event;
and past support from the Downtown Business Association.
{Note from the City Clerk: The City Council provided
direction that future requests for City sponsorship be
accompanied by financial data from the requesting group.}
Mayor Sahli-Wells moved to support the sponsorship request
as outlined in the staff report. Council Member Cooper
seconded the motion.
Additional discussion ensued between staff and Council
Members regarding consistency with consideration of the
events and information provided; concern with increasing
the level of sponsorship; distinguishing the requests; and
the need for income based information to make decisions.
Council Member Weissman proposed a substitute motion
eliminating the three new categories of waivers: the
rental fee of Parcel B, the street banner permit, and the
daily rental fee for parking along Washington Boulevard.
Mayor Sahli-Wells expressed concern that the proposed
level of support would end up being less than $1,000, the
level needed to qualify for City sponsorship.
April 13, 2015
16
Lisa Schultz, The Peale Project, discussed the work of the
organization; their intent to bring art back into Culver
City since the Art Walk is gone; artist booth fees and
minor sponsorships; bringing business to the City; and
costs to the City for Art Walk vs. costs to the City to
support an Affair of the Arts.
Discussion ensued between staff, Council Members and the
speaker regarding the success of the event last year; the
need for financial reports; the amount of the request; the
validity of the event; clarification that the sponsorship
level would be over $1,000; actual costs out of the
General Fund; whether the additional three items cost the
City money; the need for justification to support fee
waivers; the number of attendees; increased support from
the Downtown Business Association; whether police support
is needed; ongoing efforts to clarify the sponsorship
information; and support for the event itself.
Vice Mayor O'Leary seconded the substitute motion.
COUNCIL MEMBER WEISSMAN MOVED TO SUPPORT AN AFFAIR OF THE
HEART WITH THE ELIMINATION OF THE THREE NEW CATEGORIES OF
WAIVERS, THE RENTAL FEE OF PARCEL B, THE STREET BANNER
PERMIT, AND THE DAILY RENTAL FEE FOR PARKING ALONG
