RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to waive associated rental fees for the use of Lefty Gomez Community Center for New Horizon’s Annual Thanksgiving Food Distribution and Christmas Food Basket Toy Distribution, Rodeo area. (District V)

FISCAL IMPACT:

$840.00 - 100% County Service Area (CSA) R-10. CSA R-10 will not receive revenue from this activity.

BACKGROUND:

New Horizons Career Development Center (CDC) is committed to providing resources for residents who meet the guidelines for low income levels in the Rodeo community. Resources include: computer and resume workshops; life skills classes; and opportunities for educational advancement. Each year New Horizons CDC presents holiday events which bring the community together. This is a day of fun, and includes food basket and toy distributions.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

To help defray the costs associated with these events, New Horizons CDC is requesting a waiver of the $840.00 of associated rental fees for the use of the Lefty Gomez Community Center on the following dates and times:

· November 15, 2019, from 10 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. for the 2019 Thanksgiving Food Distribution.

· December 14, 2019, from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. for the Annual Christmas Food Basket Distribution and Christmas Toy Giveaway.

The requested dates do not conflict with other community programs that take place regularly at Lefty Gomez Community Center.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this request for fee waivers is not approved, the use of the Lefty Gomez Community Center would not be funded via the CSA R-10 and New Horizons CDC would be responsible for paying $840.00 of associated rental fees for the use of the Rodeo Senior Center.
