Description) Program and Facility Use Fees Finance: _ Council Notes: �sO a1 rJs� 90 Agenda Item No. �� 3 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO —REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Staff Report Subject: Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino authorizing the City Manager to execute two Use of Facilities Agreements by and between California State University, San Bernardino and the City of San Bernardino and Inland Empire Pony Baseball and the City of San Bernardino; allowing for both groups' collective use of Fiscalini Field from January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011,with the option of three one-year renewals; and repealing resolution 2010-26. Background: The City, California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB), and Inland Empire Pony Baseball (Pony) have worked cooperatively for several years to effectively accommodate both the University's needs as well as those of the community at Fiscalini Field in Perris Hill Park. The University has used Fiscalini Field as its home practice site for the men's baseball team in the past. In FY2009-10, the University held its home games at Fiscalini Field and provided $17,500 in lease payments for the year. The University has also provided facility improvements through the replacement of sideline fencing, which has a $12,000 value, as well as seed, sand, fertilizer, and labor toward the annual fall field renovations. Staff had conducted a series of discussions to enhance coordination and operations at Fiscalini between the City, Pony, and the University in anticipation of the current baseball season. On January 24", staff brought this same agreement before the Mayor and Common Council for consideration and approval. In the ensuing months the University was unable to fully execute the agreement despite staff's reminders. The University has requested an extension to execute the agreement and has guaranteed its execution within 60 days. As a result of this renewed community partnership, the Use of Facilities Agreements will contractually make Fiscalini Field the official home field of Cal State Baseball and the continued home field of play for Pony youth baseball. Pursuant to the agreement with the University, the college will continue to pay the City$17,500 annually for the use of the field and will also provide the following services: • Annual facility renovations/capital improvements approved by city staff, • Basic user maintenance, i.e.dragging,chalking,watering and field preparation,and • Maintaining all aspects of the interior and exterior of the Players' Clubhouse and batting cages for the University's exclusive use. Staff and players of the University and Pony have been responsible users of the facilities at Fiscalini Field in the past, and their knowledge of field maintenance and use as resources in this regard are welcomed assets to both Fiscalini Field and Perris Hill Park. An agreement was previously approved by the Mayor and Common Council on February 16, 2010; however, after meeting with both groups, staff has determined that revised cooperative agreements are required as a replacement to the prior year's agreement. Financial Impact: There is no cost to enter into agreements with the University and Pony; however terms of the agreement require CSUSB to complete facility improvements/renovations valued at $6,000 annually plus a $17,500 annual lease payment, in exchange for ball field and stadium use. The revenues for these agreements were anticipated and already included in the Parks FY2010-11 budget.
