Cq</FORN%P CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 19, 2013 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: APPROVE AN INTERIM EXTENSION OF THE TOURISM AND
MANAGEMENT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH SMG.
FROM: David H. Ready, City Manager
BY: Chief of Staff/City Clerk
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute an interim extension of the Tourism
and Management Services Agreement with SMG to extend the agreement to
September 30, 2013. A5785.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
In 2009, the City Council approved a Tourism and Management Services agreement
with SMG. The current agreement expires on June 30, 2013, and contains a provision
for a five-year extension.
Staff is currently working with our tourism partners to develop standards and a scope of
service to include in any proposed contract extension for approval by the City Council.
Staff is recommending the City Council authorize the City Manager to extend the current
agreement in place with SMG to September 30, 2013, until a new agreement is
presented and approved by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None. This action merely extends the current agreement on a interim basis with all
other terms and conditions to remain in effect.
