Parks and Recreation Commission Recommendation: The Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed this request at its November 3, 2015 meeting. The Commission again remains an enthusiastic supporter of the International Sports Festival (ISF) Senior Games and unanimously approved the request. The Commission again discussed the past success of the event and also the opportunity for its future growth. Background This year marks the Desert Recreation District's (DRD) 161h annual International Sports Festival (formerly known as the Senior Games). The DRD has in the past hosted a welcome reception dinner at the Palm Desert Community Center. Due to park restrictions (past and present) of consuming alcohol, the DRD has been granted approval from the City Council to serve beer and wine at these events in past years. This year's event is scheduled for the evening of Friday, February 19, 2016, in the Palm Desert Community Center. The DRD is proposing to serve beer and wine at this event and has prepared a plan that complies with all of the requirements of the Alcohol and Beverage Control (ABC); however, it does require City Council approval. Staff is recommending that the Parks and Recreation Commission approve a recommendation to the City Council of this request. Staff Report DRD 16t Annual International Sports Festival January 14, 2016 Page 2 of 2 Fiscal Analvsis The City is a sponsor of this event through the special events budget as approved in the FY 15/16 budget. Beyond previously budgeted monies, there is no financial impact to the City for the proposed event. Submitted By: Ryan Stendell, Director of Community Development roval: #Meoihlmauth.
