REQUEST: REQUEST TO PROVIDE IN -KIND SERVICE TO SUPPORT THE
FESTIVAL OF OPERA AND ART TO OCCUR ON APRIL 10, 2011.
SUBMITTED BY: Stephen Y. Aryan, Assistant to the City Manager
DATE: January 13, 2011
Recommendation
By Minute Motion, approve the provision of in -kind services as outlined in this
staff report to support the 2011 Festival of Opera and Art.
Background
OperaArts is a local nonprofit organization whose goals are to present quality musical
performances, with emphasis on Opera and operetta, to the community at large. They are
planning to hold their annual Festival of Opera and Art on Sunday, April 10, 2011, at the
Palm Desert Civic Center Park Amphitheatre. The City supported this event last year not
through a monetary donation, but in -kind services including waiving related City park fees
and promoting the event on the City's website/Brightside Community Newsletter. Staff
respectfully recommends the City Council approve similar in -kind services to support the
2011 Festival. Please note that any approval is contingent upon successful completion of
the application process, including providing required insurance documentation.
Fiscal Analysis
If the City Council approves staff's recommendation to provide in -kind services to this
event the fiscal impact is nominal and can be absorbed in the approved budget.
