P & R TITLE: USE OF AGUA HEDIONDA LAGOON FOR JET SKI RACES DEPT. HD. CITY ATTY. CITY MGR.. QUJ Oora.Q. O U O OO 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. EXHIBITS: 1. Resolution No. 2.

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.
