RE( 'JEST FOR COUNCIL .CTION AUTHORIZATION TO UTILIZE CITY STAFF REPORT FORCES AND EQUIPMENT, AND TO WAIVE THE COSTS INCURRED RELATIVE TO ASSISTING INLAND EMPIRE HISPANIC CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WITH THE 16TH OF SEPTEMBER CELEBRATION AT NUNEZ PARK. The Inland Empire Hispanic Chamber of Commerce has requested the use of Nunez Park for their annual 16th of September celebration. The Chamber estimates that approximately 50,000 local area citizens attended the 3 day fiesta in 1989. The use of Nunez Park requires that equipment such as picnic tables, trash cans, bleachers, barricades and other various relat- ed items be added to the park. All this requires the use of City forces. In addition, crowd and traffic control during the festivities require additional man hours for the Police Department and the event requires the use of ballfield lights for security purposes. The costs are: Fees for equipment and facilities: Manpower costs for Police and other miscellaneous city forces: $ 2,280 10,468 TOTAL $12,748 The Chamber has requested that the fees and manpower costs incurr- ed by the City for assisting in the celebration be waived. The Chamber has been sponsoring this event for many years and the City has assisted during all such events. This activity has been extremely successful and beneficial in promoting Hispanic history and culture in our City. The benefits of the event for all City inhabitants are such that, as in previous years, and in other pre- viously approved activities, the costs incurred would be waived.
