Background: In FY04-05 the City entered into an agreement with a local non-profit to create a hands on children's museum (known as A Special Place Children's Museum) at the Coddington Library Building, located at Perris Hill Park. In FY07-08, the organization terminated their tenancy due to financial constraints and the facility has been vacant ever since. In an effort to revitalize programming and services at this site, while maintaining a"zero" impact to the General Fund, the Department is proposing a standard Facility Lease Agreement between the City and Project Fighting Chance for the exclusive use of facilities at what will be known as, the Perris Hill Community Center. Project Fighting Chance (PFC) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide a support system for local youth. By integrating the community, educating and nurturing the lives of"at-risk" youth, PFC teaches youth to become contributing members of society. PFC has proposed community and youth programming for the Perris Hill Community Center in the following areas: after school programs and tutoring, youth sports, mentoring, life skills workshops, physical activity classes and vocational construction training. A description of all services is outlined in the Lease Agreement and Scope of Services, included in Attachment "1" of the Resolution. PFC programs will not replace existing City or County activities, but rather enhance the service offerings with additional resources that compliment the center's calendar and schedule. Financial Impact: There is no cost to enter into an agreement with PFC, however terms of the service contract include facility improvements and beautification projects to be completed by PFC, estimated at $10,000 annually, in exchange for community center use and access to city and county program participants. PFC will directly provide all utilities, maintenance, and janitorial costs at the center.
