COUNCIL COMMUNICATION TM AGENDA TITLE: Authorize Advertisement for Transportation Services for the Oooh Ahhh Festival and Authorize Use of Buses Should No Alternate Provider Be Willing to Perform the Service MEETING DATE: May 19, 2004 PREPARED BY: Public Works Director RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council authorize advertisement for transportation services for the Oooh Ahhh Festival and authorize use of buses should no alternate provider be willing to perform the service. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At its March 5, 2003, meeting, the City Council adopted policies and procedures for the use of transit services outside regular operations. Included in the adopted policy was specific language identifying the procedure for utilizing the City's transit services. In the past, a private operator has been able to handle transportation for this 4th of July celebration. This year, that vendor is unavailable, and the City has been contacted by Whytehouse Productions to perform this service. The 4th of July is not a regularly scheduled day for transit services, so the applicant would be required to pay the overtime rate for service. FUNDING: Funding for the advertisements and operations shall be incurred by Whytehouse Productions. Prepared by Tiffani M. Fink, Transportation Manager RCP/TFlpmf APPROVED: CCQoh Aah Festival doc Richard C. Prima, Jr. Public Works Director Dixon Flynn, City 5/7/2004
