Explanation

Background:
This ordinance will enable the Director of Recreation and Parks to enter into a contract with Phoenix Theatre Circle for the purpose of creating, producing, and staffing summer theatre camps and fall/winter classes for the Columbus Recreation and Parks Department's Davis Performing Arts Programming for Youth through 2007.

The new contract allows Phoenix Theatre Circle to be paid up to but not more than $25,000 for producing the 2007 Davis Summer Theatre Camps, up to but not more than $5,000 for assistance/production of fall/winter programming, and up to but not more than $10,000 for administrative and development consultancy work. Previous Ordinance for $22,000.00 (0745-2006)

Revenue from the camp and class fees will be collected and will offset this contract expense.

Due to the unique skills, abilities and teaching experience necessary, the department is requesting the waiver of the bidding provisions of the Columbus City Codes to enter into a contract with the Phoenix Theatre Circle.

Emergency action is requested so contract can be processed, funding is in place for necessary expenditures, and camps and classes will not be delayed.

Fiscal Impact:
$40,000.00 is budgeted from the Recreation and Parks Operating Fund to meet the financial obligation of this contract.
