TO: INITIATED BY: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council James L. Bowersox, City Man~ John D. Fitch, Assistant City Manager~'~ Robert L. Thomas, Director of communit~ services'~ Michael J. Putnam, Performing Arts Manager~ FROM: DATE: June 4, 1996 SUBJECT: Proposed Service Charge for Food and/or Beverage Receptions held at Performing Arts Center BACKGROUND Since the opening of the Performing Arts Center in 1990, users of the Center have occasionally requested permission to hold a food and/or beverage reception in the Center. In recent times the request for such receptions have become more frequent and the receptions have become more elaborate. PINDIHGS The use of the Center for food and/or beverage receptions increases the wear and tear on Center fixtures and equipment such as carpeting and folding tables and chairs. Food and/or beverage receptions also cause an increase in janitorial services which are provided by an outside contract as needed and on an hourly cost basis. In addition, such receptions require additional time for coordination by part-time hourly Center staff. All of these costs are over and above those covered by the regular rental charges for the use of the Center. The Performing Arts Advisory Committee, at its regular meeting on April 10, 1996, voted unanimously to recommend to the City Council the approval of a $75 service charge for food and/or beverage receptions at the PCPA. ACTION: 2 of 3 )) JUN 4 1996 ITEM 1 (, Agenda Report June 4, 1996 Page Two ENVIRONMENT~L REVIEW This item is not subject to CEQA review. PISCAL IMP~CT It is anticipated that this service charge will produce approximately an additional $1,000 of rental revenue to the City in FY 1997. ADDITION~L PUBLIC NOTIPICATION AND CORRESPONDENCE Additional notification sent to Performing Arts Advisory Committee. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve a $75 service charge for users of the facility who wish to hold a food and/or beverage reception at the poway Center for the Performing Arts.
