AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Approving the Agreement Between the City of Lodi and Spare
Time, Inc., dba Twin Arbors Athletic Club, for the Summer Swim League Program
MEETING DATE: May 7, 2014
PREPARED BY: Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution approving the agreement between the City of Lodi
and Spare Time, Inc., dba Twin Arbors Athletic Club, for the
Summer Swim League Program.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department currently
provides a summer swim league program to more than 400 children.
This City has had a contract for the use of the Twin Arbors Athletic
Club ("TAAC") pool since 2003.
As a way of accommodating facility needs, staff has partnered with TAAC to gain access to its pools. In
exchange, TAAC is allowed to organize its own team and participate in the City -sponsored Summer
Swim League. The benefits of the public/private partnership are twofold: (1) It provides the City use of
aquatic facilities that the City does not have; and, (2) It creates another program offering for TAAC which
has resulted in the expansion of the Summer Swim League.
Staff recommends approval of the agreement, which will enable the swimming pools at TAAC to be used
for swim meets and allow for a team composed of TAAC members to participate in the league. Meets will
be held on select Friday nights in June and July 2014. The term of this agreement is May 27, 2014 to
July 18, 2014.
FISCAL IMPACT: No funds will be exchanged. This is an in-kind trade. The use of multiple
pools (TAAC, Tokay High School, Lodi High School and Blakely Pool) will
enhance scheduling efficiency, allow for Friday night versus Saturday
meets, and thus save operation and maintenance costs at Blakely Pool.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.

excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance of Contractor shall contain, or be endorsed to contain, a
