RECOMMENDED ACTION:
City Council adopt Resolution No. 7^7 allowing Snug Harbor
Marina to use Agua Hedionda Lagoon for Jet Ski Races on October 30,
31, November 20, and 21, 1982.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On January 19, 1982, the City Council approved the use of Agua Hedionda
Lagoon for Jet Ski Races. The races were held over several week-ends
during the slower winter months and were extremely successful. The only
complaint received by the City involved the noise from the public address
system. However, this problem has been resolved by lowering the volume of
the sound system.
The marina has again requested the use of the lagoon to conduct jet ski
races on October 30, 31, November 20, and 21, 1982. Staff recommends
approval of their request. Based on past experience, it is estimated the
event will :
1. Provide additional income for the City
2. Increase tourism
3. Utilize the lagoon during the slower winter months
If problems occur such as noise, excessive complaints, accidents, etc.,
the City Council will have the right to cancel the jet ski races at any
time.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City received approximately $600 in revenue from boat-launching fees
during the previous winter season. It is estimated we will receive an
additional $900 in revenue during the 1982-83 winter months.

Dear Dave,
Well summer is over and the cold months are
just ahead, so, once again we would like to put
on our winter Jet Ski races here at the lagoon.
The races last year proved to be very profitable
for us, so with things being as tight as they are
in the business world it is essential to us to
stage these races. Judging by the way things went
last year we plan plan to go with the same format.
We will provide all the necessary insurance and a
copy of it two weeks before the event. An ambulance
will also be in attendance and we will provide our
own security, but a cruise through by a Carlsbad
Police officer never hurts! I cannot see any problems
coming up. The only problem that occured last year
was one public complaint about our public address
system, but, I can assure you that this problem has
been remedied. At this point in time I am only
going to request two weekend dates they are:
October 30 - 31
November 20-21
Because of scheduling problems within our racing
association I will not be able to present any more
dates until December, but, I will say that I wil
request at least one weekend a month from, January
to May. I hope tha you will get the ball rolling
on this as soon as possible because the first date
is approaching quickly. If I can be of any help
in any way, please do not/ttesitate to call me.
