An agreement is needed between Council and LRC. The contract with the vendor will be with City Council. The City Attorney prepared a draft agreement for LRC review and approval. The EV Manager presented the general portions of the agreement, which was included in the meeting packet. The City will be looking at other options on how the ice rink is managed in the future. The City Attorney mentioned that the contract document is self-explanatory, and he is willing to answer questions. Chair Adler asked about the contract recitals — Section D it states that revenues will be remitted to the City, not LRC. Section D speaks to management agreement between the City and Contractor. The City will initially receive revenues and remit them to the LRC. The agreement is broad enough to cover the scenario of direct deposit into LRC revenue fund. The budget amendment will include support from an account not currently being used for staffing support to support this project. Commissioner Comments: see comments incorporated into the topic above. Public Comment: None. Chair Adler made a motion to approve bringing the draft agreement to council for review/approval. Commissioner Smith seconded. Roll call vote: unanimously approved.

This was reviewed by LRC and approved by Council. This is a 50% cost - share for the third -party financial review, not to exceed $15,250. If it is determined to approve the application, LRC will reimburse the applicant for their portion of the review. Staff may bring a process change request to LRC and Council to expedite these requests in the future. Councilmember Leh asked if third party analysis should be required for these applications. The Director of Community Development noted that this topic isn't on the agenda and recommended that staff do more research and include this topic in a future meeting agenda. Agenda Packet P. 5
