DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND Community Garden Lease Revenue Annual lease revenue of $75 per plot for garden plots leased by community members pays for the cost of utilities, infrastructure and repairs to the Garden. Lease revenue of $3,825 combined with ITEM 2 6/13/2017 forfeited deposits of $200 for a total of $4,025, was collected in Fiscal Year 2017 (FY17). Of this amount, $3,450 was appropriated by City Council on February 14, 2017. The remainder of $575, minus administrative costs of 8% of total revenues collected ($322), for a total of $253, needs to be appropriated for FYI 7. Military Banner Donations In 2011, a military banner program was implemented in Old Towne, to honor active duty military Orange residents. The banners are funded by donations of $120 per banner, and are posted on light poles throughout the Plaza and spoke streets. Twice a year, in May and November, the new banners which have been ordered are installed. Revenues received in FY 17 in the amount of $360 need to be appropriated to the military banner fund. Sponsorship Donations The City's annual Partnership Campaign solicits donations to support citywide special events. Per the City's donation policy, donations greater than $5,000 should only be accepted and appropriated by the City Council. Chapman University, St. John's Lutheran and Ricci Realty became "Orange Tree" partners for the 2017 Special Event Season and each provided a $10,000 sponsorship donation. The Department requests that $30,000 be accepted and appropriated to help cover the costs of the annual City special events and programs. Sports Field Maintenance and Renovation Reimbursement Youth sports groups participate in funding repair and renovation of sports fields they use based on significant wear that occurs as a result of their use. The Community Services Department developed a cooperative program with the user groups to fund annual maintenance and renovation. User groups reimburse the City based on a formula for use of multi -use fields or actual amounts for work performed on a single -user field. The City uses the funds to prosecute renovation work to bring fields up to City standard after each season through a vendor on contract with the City. This process allows for equitable contributions by user groups and helps the City avoid any potential liability issues that may arise from contractors doing work on City property without proper authorization, insurance or licenses. It also allows for Community Services staff to properly manage and approve all work being done on City sports fields to ensure that the work is performed to City standards and results in a safe playing surface for all users. A total of $34,331.84 has been received from user groups to reimburse the City for field renovations that have taken place this spring. This amount needs to be appropriated for sports field maintenance and renovation related to the high impact and/or repetitive use by the user groups at McPherson Athletic Facility, El Modena and Handy Parks.
