Title
Presentation: Resolutions Approving the 2019 Service Contracts
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
Executive Summary
Each year, Town Council reviews requests from organizations for funding their operations and/or special events and services for the Castle Rock community.
Council heard presentations from these organizations at the August 21 meeting, at which time the amounts of the organizations’ requests and proposed services were detailed.
Staff has prepared service contracts to provide for the funding and services as requested, which are attached in subsequent agenda memos. A summary of the funding requests is below; the requested amounts have been included in the 2019 Budget.
Council is being asked to determine the funding amounts - and corresponding service levels - for these 2019 contracts.
Organization 2018 Funds 2019 Request
Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce $99,720 $99,720
Castle Rock Downtown Development Authority $195,000 $175,000 (estimate)
Castle Rock Economic Development Council $210,086 $210,086
Castle Rock Historical Society/Museum $75,000 $77,000
Castle Rock Senior Center $120,000 $120,000
Douglas County Housing Partnership $35,000 $35,000
Douglas County Youth Initiative $19,800 $19,800
Downtown Merchants Association $75,000 $75,000
Services through the Douglas County Housing Partnership and Douglas County Youth Initiative are provided through intergovernmental agreements (IGAs) that remain in effect until discontinued. Unless Council directs staff to pursue any changes to those IGAs, the funding and services for those organizations will be administered as requested in 2019.
Services through the Downtown Development Authority are provided through an annual IGA, which will be brought to Council for consideration later in 2018, once assessed valuations are finalized, as the amount of that contract is based upon valuations.
Financial Impact
If Council approves all of the organizations’ requests as presented, the total 2019 Budget impact of the service contract program would be $811,606 - $443,020 within the General Fund-Town Council budget, $210,086 within the Economic Development Fund, $108,500 within the Philip S. Miller Fund and $50,000 within the Transportation Fund.
