RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller, or designee, to issue a payment on behalf of the Interim Public Works Director, in the amount of $1,500 from County Service Area R-7 (CSA R-7) payable to the Community Foundation of Alamo for the holiday lights at Andrew H. Young Park, Alamo Area.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% CSA R-7 funds.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without Board approval this event would not be possible.

BACKGROUND:

CSA R-7 participates in Alamo’s Annual Tree Lighting Festival each year. The Community Foundation of Alamo is the sponsor of the 2017 event. CSA R-7 contributes the use of Andrew H. Young Park and provides funding to decorate the park with holiday lights. The event will take place on Sunday, December 3, 2017, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The lights will be installed on or after November 15, 2017, and will remain up through the first week of January 2018. The Alamo Tree lighting event is a collaborative effort coordinated by the Community Foundation of Alamo. This expense was reviewed by the Alamo Municipal Advisory Council on May 2, 2017 when planning for the 2017-18 recreation budget and $1,500 was recommended for this event.
