ROLL CALL Councilmen present: Mayor Hyde, Councilmen Hobel, Cox, Scott, Egdahl Councilmen absent: None Staff present; City Manager Cole, Assistant City Manager Asmus, Director of Finance Grant VISITORS AND CONVENTION Ted Bell, President, Chula Vista Visitors and Convention BUREAU Bureau, summarized his budget request of $75,186. He explained that $15,396 of this request is for the con- struction of an Information Patio at the Center located at I-S and "E" Street. They have been informed by Caltrans that if this center is not upgraded, they will lose their freeway ~igns along I-S. The amount of $10,000 is being requested to invest with the San Diego County Convention and Visitors Bureau for national advertising and promotion and $2,000 with the Southern California Visitors Council for the same purpose. In answer to Council's queries, Mr. Bell said the Bureau now has 74 paid memberships - two-thirds of which are tourist-oriented businesses. Council discussion Discussion followed regarding the philosophy of the Council in funding the Bureau's activities. Motion to fund the Bureau It was moved by Councilman Cox and seconded by Councilman from Motel/Lodging Tax Hobel that the Visitors and Convention Bureau be funded from a portion of the transient lodging tax. Discussion of motion Councilman Cox said he would propose the following conditions if his motion carried: 1. Encourage the Visitors and Convention Bureau to become affiliated with the Chamber of Commerce. 2. Visitors and Convention Bureau to have a joint policy board to be made up of the City Manager, one of the City Councilmen, a couple members of the Visitors and Convention Bureau, and perhaps someone from the Chamber of Commerce to allow for continuity and to approve expenditures that would be eventually set up by the Council-approved budget. 3. Payments to the Visitors and Convention Bureau be made on a quarterly basis basically for services that are rendered. 4. Based on adequate funding, the Visitors and Convention Bureau should provide a brochure of all businesses in the CitF -- so that it would not be charged with catering only to those businesses that are members of the organization. Adjourned Regular Meeting -2- June 1, 1977 5. Provide information to tourists. There is the po- tential of having them handle all sorts of calls that are coming in new to the Chamber and City and various other governmental entities requesting information about Chula Vista. 6. Disseminate literature about Chula Vista. 7. Maintain some sort of monthly or bi-weekly calendar of events that are going on in the City -- things that are going on in the high schools~ colleges, and parks and recreation programs. These can be sent out to the hotels, motels, library, City offices and other places. 8. The transient tax is now bringing in $144,000 a year and will increase in future years. There is a great po- tential for Chula Vista to increase the funding and the services derived from the Visitors and Convention Bureau. The members of the Council discussed the motion with Mayor Hyde indicating that the motion was open-ended and he would not favor fixing a certain percentage of the transient tax for this organization. Motion failed The motion failed by the following vote, to-wit: AYES: Councilmen Cox, Hobel Noeg: Councilmen Hyde, Scott, Egdahl Absent: None Discussion Council discussion ensued regarding the philosophy of fund- ing the Bureau; the budget approved for this organization in the past fiscal year; and the merits of the Committee as proposed by Councilman Cox. Motion to grant $2S,000 It was moved by Councilman Scott and seconded by Mayor Hyde and form committee that the make-up of the Committee be worked out - (the tourist committee consisting of the Chamber, staff, etc.) that reports directly to the City, and to grant the Tourist Visitors and Convention Bureau $2S,000 to be allocated by way of this committee. Details will be firmed up at a later time. Discussion of motion The motion was discussed by each member of the Council with his own interpretations of the motion. Councilman Scott clarified the motion indicating that the Mayor can appoint the members of the committee; the com- mittee would make up the budget - figure out how the money would be spent - and it would be dispersed by the committee; Chairman would report to the Council; the details or machinery of the committee can be left to the Council at a later date; $25,000 would be for the Tourist Visitors and Convention Bureau and not give the money to the Com- mittee per se. Mr. Bell stated that the Visitors and Convention Bureau budget is segregated by three projects: (1) operating the centers; (2) national promotions; (3) capital outlay. If the $25,000 is intended to be divided up among the three projects, the Bureau would be in trouble and there would be no way they could operate for one year. Adjourned Regular Meeting -3- June 1, 1977 Councilman Scott explained that the money ($25,000) would be allocated by way of the committee and the top position and rules for the committee will be determined by the Council at a later date. Councilman Hobel said he agreed to the $25,000 for visitor and tourist promotion in the City. Once it gets into the committee, the Visitors and Convention Bureau may completely change their structure, and to earmark the money to the Bureau is what is wrong with the motion. Substitute Motion It was moved by Councilman Egdahl and seconded by Council- man Scott that a committee be established for tourist, visitor and convention promotion -- that that committee, this year, carry out their work through the existing Bureau, and that funds be provided for the purpose of visitor and convention promotion to the level of $25,000. Clarification of motion Councilman Egdahl clarified the motion stating that (1) the City intends to provide funds now and in the future; (2) the funds are not being provided this year directly to the Visitors and Convention Bureau -- the committee will have to work with them; (3) the committee or someone else may come up with visitor promotions this year (such as the Redevelopment Agency). Councilman Egdahl suggested the make-up of the committee be derived at by the Mayor and the Chairman of the existing Visitors and Convention Bureau and Councilman Cox. Motion carried The motion carried unanimously. Spanish-type signs Councilman Hobel discussed the Spanish-type City signs proposed by the Chamber of Commerce a few years ago to be put along 1-5. He asked that the staff check back into this along with the present cost. Mr. Bell reiterated that the $25,000 is the operating budget and they cannot look to anything else. The Bureau cannot go beyond just keeping the centers open. Councilman Cox indicated that the Council has not precluded the possibility of the Visitors and Convention Bureau coming back to the Council and asking for revenue sharing funds. Motion for committee It was moved by Councilman Egdahl and seconded by Mayor charge Hyde that the Council specifically asks the committee to be established to recommend to the City Council at its earliest convenience other ways that (the Council) can promote the visitor and convention industry which means with signs, brochures and the other things that are on the docket. This specifically gives it to the committee to make recommendations to the Council, and it will be up to the Council to figure out how the Council is going to fund them. Mayor Hyde told Mr. Bell he would be happy to meet with him as soon as convenient to initiate the make-up of the committee.
