HUSTON, CITY MANAGER COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPAR~ENT MONTHLY MEETINGS REQUESTED AT CITY FACILITIES BY TEAM .. RE COMME NDAT I ON: Pleasure of the Council. FISCAL IMPACT: Team has requested luncheon meetings which require isetting up tables and chairs for 50 people for a 2 1/2 hour event (see attached Facility Use Application). Rental fees offset custodial and other personnel expenses at community facilities for qualified local nonprofit organizatiohs. The City has reduced rental fees for local nonprofit organizations. If TEAM was a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization, fees for this meeting would be $47 per hour or $117.50 per event or $1,410 per year, BACKGROUND: Mayor Potts has requested that the City provide meeting space to TEAM the'third Tuesday of each month at noon in the Tustin Area Senior Center at no cost to the organization. Based on the activities scheduled at the Senior Center, there iS no space available on Tuesdays during the day without canceling scheduled senior activities. Canceling senior activities in favor of programs such as the proposed TEAM meetings would create problems. The City has provided assurances to the local senior community, building contributors and the State of California that the building is to be used primarily for senior programs and services Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Compromising these commitments could result in demands for refunds by the State of California grant funding authorities and private contributors who provided funds to construct the Senior Center. More importantly, canceling senior programs would result in the City losing credibility with the local senior community. As an alternative, staff suggests that the atrium between the Council Chambers and the Community Center could be potentially used. Meetings could be held in the Community Center once the flooring was corrected.. This arrangement would not displace any Senior programs. This alternative would not affect any Community Services Department programming. When the building reopens, no programs are anticipated during the time TEAM has requested. However, the TEAM request does reduce flexibility should the Community Services Department wish to add activities. I ' City staff is currently completing a Request for Proposal for custodial services. In the event the City Council decides to contract for custodial services, it is expected that building Event Coordinators would be responsible for set ups, take downs and other duties Custodial staff are currently doing. Most Event Coordinators have other day jobs or are attending school and have this part time job to supplement their income. These people may not be available during the day time. As a result, there may not be the support staff available duringthe day to do necessary set ups. Should there be no one available, street crews would have to interrupt their street duties to assist, This could drive support costs higher. Because future costs and commitments for facility use such as Community Services recreatioh programs are unknown at!this time, the City Council in reviewing the request for a fee ~waiver and commitment of the facility should consider a predetermined period of time. A six month time period might be initiallylconsidered since Community Services Department programs do not expectto need the building through that time period. Staff believes that TEAM meetings are important to the City's crime prevention activities in the southwestern neighborhoods. The City Council could waive rental fees or, the Council may want to consider using asset forfeiture funds to offset City costs incurred to host the meetings.
