BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi was approached by Jerald Kirsten with a
request to use Carnegie Forum on Saturday July 20, 2002 for a
Joint Democratic Candidates Forum. The City's current
Administrative Policy and Procedures, dated May 1, 1995,
(Attachment "A"), stipulates the permissible uses of Carnegie Forum, and allows the City Council
to make exceptions to the Policy. As such, staff is requesting that Council provide an exception
to the Policy, and permit the Democratic Party to host their Candidates Forum in the City facility.
Mr. Kirsten informs staff that two Congressional candidates have been invited to participate in the
Forum and that the proposed Candidates' Forum will be open to the public.
