CITY OF SAN BERK RDINO - REQUEST I )R COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
ACCEPTANCE OF PAYMENT FROM
CITY OF HIGHLAND OF PRO RATA
SHARE OF HIGHLAND LITTLE
LEAGUE'S LIGHTING COSTS AT
PATTON PARR AND THE WAIVER OF
COSTS THROUGH JUNE 30, 1993.
At its February 9, 1993 meeting, Highland City Council
approved the payment of up to 80 percent of $3 , 135 not to
exceed $2,508 on a one time basis, to cover Highland Little
League lighting costs at Patton Park. The 80 percent
represents a pro rata share of the energy costs based on the
residency of the little league participants. This action
successfully culminates review of light energy fees for youth
sports organizations.
Resolution 91-35 exempts only local youth organizations from
paying fees for outdoor sports facilities. With the agreement
of the City of Highland to pay for Highland Little League's
energy cost on a pro rata basis, this organization requires a
special status, in order that the remaining energy costs,
which represents what is incurred by San Bernardino residents,
not be charged. The proposed council action provides for the
acceptance of the Highland share and the waiver of the
remainder for the energy cost for the current fiscal year,
thereby establishing that special status. The City of
Highland elected to provide funding on a one year basis only,
due to uncertainties about future budgets. The council action
recommends the same term limit on the waiver.
Any other non-resident youth sports organization requesting
the use of a city facility will pay the fees established in
Resolution 91-35.
