DISCUSSION
April 29. 2007 - Cinco de Mavo Celebration
The T A V A is requesting the following for the 2007 Cinco De Mayo:
1. The closure ofThird Avenue between "E" and "G" streets on Sunday. April 29
2. Allowing sidewalk sales for the event: and
3. A waiver of business license taxes for the T A V A and vendors taking part in the
event.
The closure of Third Avenue will affect the flow of traffic in the downtown area. The TAVA
will be required to coordinate with the City's Traffic Engineer and prepare a traffic control
plan to Chula Vista Police and Chula Vista Traffic Engineer's specifications. The City's
transit system will also be affected. The Transit Coordinator's staff has agreed to the
closure as long as "E" and "G" streets remain passable for traffic. The T A V A is aware of this
stipulation and will abide by it.
The T A V A has requested that the business license tax for this promotional event be waived
for this festival. The taxes involved include a $5 assessment to the sponsoring organization
(TAVA) and a requirement that each vendor have a Chula Vista business license (costing
$12.50 to each business without a current business license).
In the past the City has waived the business license tax pursuant to CVMC 5.04.085 for the
TAVA and vendors taking part in these events in order to encourage participation. The
Municipal Code allows the Council to waive the business license requirement for those
events that last 3 days or less and help promote or publicize Chula Vista. In this case, the
rationale for waiving the fee is the festivol attracts thousands of visitors and residents to the
Chula Vista downtown and promotes the downtown businesses. The resulting effect will
be positive publicity for the City throughout the region which will then generate additional
commercial activity and increased sales tax revenue to the City. Waiving the business
license taxes will encourage vendor participation. Since having a large number of
vendors will help ensure the success of the events. staff recommends the waiver.
The event includes food booths and an alcohol tent. These areas will be operated in
accordance with the regulations of the San Diego County Health Department. ABC and
City of Chula Vista Fire Department and Police Department.
