RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to waive the $300 rental fees and $400 refundable deposits for the use of the Rodeo Senior Center for the 2018 Annual Community Block Party, the Annual Thanksgiving Food Basket Giveaway, the Annual Christmas Food Basket Distribution, and the Christmas Toy Giveaway, Rodeo area. (District V)

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% General Fund.

BACKGROUND:

New Horizons Career Development Center (CDC) is committed to providing resources to 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 they present community events, which are a day of fun, food baskets, toys, school supplies, entertainment and community unity at no cost to the public.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

To help defray the costs of these events, New Horizons CDC is requesting a waiver of the $300 rental fees and $400 refundable deposits for the use of the Rodeo Senior Center on the following dates and times:

August 18, 2018 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for the 2018 Annual Community Block Party;
November 16, 2018 from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. for the Annual Thanksgiving Food Basket Giveaway;
December 14, 2018 from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. for the Annual Christmas Food Basket Distribution; and
December 15, 2018 from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. for the Christmas Toy Giveaway.

The requested dates do not conflict with other community programs that take place regularly at the Rodeo Senior Center.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this request for fee waivers is not approved, the use of the Rodeo Senior Center would not be funded via the General Fund and New Horizons Career Development Center would be responsible for paying the $300 rental fees and $400 refundable deposit for use of the Rodeo Senior Center.
