garbage bags from designated drop-off locations around town to eliminate <br /> using Western Disposal dumpsters. <br /> The 2009 pancake breakfast was sparsely attended (perhaps 80 — 100 <br /> people) and the coordinator had little luck getting sponsors for the event. <br /> There was more interest in the actual clean up activity and that could <br /> continue with much lower costs to the City. The significant 2009 costs <br /> were the event coordinator ($2500), the rental of griddles for the breakfast <br /> ($474) and the cost of the dumpsters and trash service ($960). Changing <br /> the event to just the clean up would eliminate all of those costs. <br /> Items of Note: <br /> • The recommended 2010 budget numbers for July 4th and Fall Festival <br /> include the amount of funds that the coordinator is required to raise for the <br /> event so that entire cost is NOT borne by the City. In addition, the <br /> coordinator has generally raised significantly more than required to help <br /> off set costs. Breakdowns for the events as currently recommended for <br /> 2010 are as follows: <br /> o July 4th - $30,000 <br /> ■ $15,000 contract <br /> ■ $8,000 City contribution <br /> ■ $7,000 raised by coordinator <br /> o Fall Festival - $20,000 <br /> ■ $15,000 contract <br /> ■ $500 City contribution <br /> ■ $4500 raised by coordinator <br /> • The Coal Creek Crossing event is revenue neutral. The $5000 number is <br /> entirely covered by sponsorships and event fees. In 2010 the event also <br /> raised almost $2,800 that was distributed to the Library Foundation, the <br /> Senior Foundation, the Cultural Council, and the Historical Commission. <br /> • The DBA grant has been moved from the City Council budget to the <br /> Special Events Budget beginning with 2010 and is not a new cost. <br /> •Page 2 <br /> 13 <br />
