REPORT TO CULTURAL COMMISSION
SUBJECT
Title
“The Ladies Foursome” Production Reimbursement Request from the Santa Clara Players
Report
BACKGROUND
During the FY 2017/18 annual budget process, the Cultural Commission recommended that the Santa Clara Players be granted $5,850 in funding. The City entered into a contribution agreement with the Santa Clara Players on August 3, 2017, in which the City would fund $1,462.50 per production for four productions during the fiscal year. In no event would the total amount of the contribution exceed $5,850.
The Agreement provides that payment not be made until a presentation of records documenting production costs; income; and attendance is made to the Commission.
DISCUSSION
George Doeltz, President of the Santa Clara Players Board of Directors, submitted a request for reimbursement of $1,462.50 for their fourth production for the 2017-2018 season, “The Ladies Foursome”. The production had eleven performances that were attended by a total of 585 people.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City has already approved $5,850 to fund four Santa Clara Players productions in FY 17-18.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4) in that it is a fiscal activity that does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potential significant impact on the environment.
