CITY MGR- RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution No. 2005-153 , accepting a sponsorship donation of two thousand dollars ($2,000) cash from EarthProducts’ Audio Company in support of the 2005 Amps, Ramps, & Art - Teen Expo. ITEM EXPLANATION: It is the mission of the Carlsbad Recreation Department to provide a fun and safe recreational environment for the teens of the City of Carlsbad. With that in mind, Recreation developed the Amps, Ramps & Arts - Teen Expo; ‘Amps’ relates to the “Battle of the Bands* competition, ‘Ramps’ corresponds to skateboarding demonstrations by pros and amateur skaters, and ‘Arts’ correlates to the teens bringing in their artwork to place on exhibit. This event provides teens with an avenue to express themselves in a positive manner. EarthProducts’ Audio Company, a company that produces skateboarding equipment and shoes teamed with the Recreation Department to produce the event. Besides coordinating the skateboarding demonstration they donated $2,000 to assist in defraying the cost of the event. Letters of appreciation have been sent on behalf of the Recreation Department and the City of Carlsbad to EarthProducts’ Audio Company. On April 18,2005, the Parks and Recreation Commission recommended acceptance of the two thousand dollars ($2,000) donation by the Council. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost associated with the sponsorship offset the actual cost of providing this special event by $2,000 that would otherwise be required of the General Fund. The check has been deposited into the Recreation Special Events account #0014524-5054. EXHIBITS: 1. Resolution No. 2005-1 53 DEPARTMENT CONTACT: Bonnie L. Elliott.
