Buena Park City Council
February 25, 2025

RECOMMENDED ACTION
1) Adopt a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Buena Park and Kukkiwon California Branch, LLC to promote mutual understanding and cooperation in spreading Taekwondo culture and bringing community and economic development to the Buena Park community; 2) Authorize the City Manager and City Attorney to make any necessary, non-monetary changes to the agreement; and 3) Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement.

PREVIOUS CITY COUNCIL ACTION
At the City Council Meeting on January 14, 2025, Mayor Ahn requested a discussion regarding entering into an agreement with Kukkiwon California Branch. On January 28, 2025, the City Council received a staff report and provided direction to negotiate the terms of the agreement and bring an MOU to the City Council at a future date for consideration.

DISCUSSION
In September 2024, the California Taekwondo Committee announced that Kukkiwon has started a Kukkiwon California Branch, LLC. The organization aims to strengthen the global influence of Taekwondo and promote collaboration through its California branch by fostering the development of Taekwondo instructors in the state.

The Kukkiwon California branch will focus on activities such as overseeing Dan certificate examinations and issuance, providing guidance and support for international instructor qualifications, supplying essential information for running Taekwondo academies, and promoting an integrated management system for Taekwondo facilities.

The Kukkiwon California Branch will also provide Kukkiwon-certified Taekwondo programs and instructor training; host Taekwondo seminars, events, and international certification programs; and strengthen collaboration with local Taekwondo schools.

Kukkiwon California Branch is interested in working with the City to promote Taekwondo culture and its educational value within the community; support the growth and activation of Taekwondo programs in Buena Park; enhance regional publicity through international Taekwondo events and cultural exchanges; and consider Taekwondo education in Buena Park’s local elementary and middle schools. In addition, Kukkiwon California will strive to increase tourism and promote and recommend that Program participants utilize local Buena Park hotels, restaurants, and businesses during tournaments and events.

In exchange, Kukkiwon California Branch is seeking an agreement with that City that provides City banquet facilities, at no cost, to be used for Taekwondo events, if available (e.g., public facilities, gymnasiums). In addition, the City would provide promotional efforts within the community and encourage community participation in their Taekwondo programs.

The Proposed MOU provides a two-year agreement providing Kukkiwon California usage of City Banquet facilities on five occasions per year based on availability, advance scheduling, and requiring Kukkiwon California to enter into and comply with Buena Park’s standard facility use agreement.

For 2025, the following dates and facilities are proposed, based on availability:

Sunday, March 9 – Community Center Ballroom
Friday, May 30 – Veterans Hall
Saturday, May 31 – Veterans Hall
Sunday, June 1 – Veterans Hall
Monday, June 2 – Veterans Hall
Any additional reservation requests will be paid at the current facility rates.

Dates and banquet facilities for 2026 will be determined at a later date.

BUDGET IMPACT
The impact to the City’s budget will be limited to in-kind contributions, such as no-cost banquet facility access and promotional support. It is anticipated that these costs will be offset by the potential revenue generated by the increase in tourism to Buena Park hotels and restaurants.

DISCUSSION
The Southern California Association of Government (SCAG)'s 2025 General Assembly is scheduled for May 1 and 2, 2025, in Palm Desert. SCAG is requesting the City designate a voting delegate and alternate voting delegate by City Council Minute action.

The General Assembly Delegate Representative for Buena Park has an opportunity to propose any policy matter for determination by the General Assembly in the form of a proposed Resolution, and revisions to SCAG Bylaws. All proposed Resolutions and/or Bylaw revisions will be reviewed by SCAG's Bylaws and Resolutions Committee, and thereafter the Regional Council, before being considered at the General Assembly Business meeting. Once additional information is received on the proposed resolutions, staff will return to City Council for review and to provide direction to the City's delegates on how to proceed with voting.

For reference, attached is City Council's Policy on the selection of voting delegates for conferences and meetings.

CITY COUNCIL POLICY STATEMENT

RESPONSIBLE DEPARTMENT: CITY CLERK’S OFFICE

CONTACT PERSON: DIRECTOR OF GOVERNMENT AND COMMUNITY

RELATIONS/CITY CLERK

SUBJECT: SELECTION OF VOTING DELEGATES

This policy establishes the procedure for selecting a voting delegate and an alternate voting delegate to represent the City Council at meetings or conferences when requested and ensures that their voting decisions reflect the collective direction of the full City Council.

SELECTION OF DELEGATES

 Designation of Delegates:

The City Council shall appoint a voting delegate and an alternate voting delegate from its members to represent the City at meetings or conferences, when requested. The appointments shall be made during a regular City Council meeting.

 Eligibility:

Any City Council member is eligible for selection as a voting delegate or alternate delegate.

The appointed delegates must register and attend the meeting or conference and have a clear understanding of the responsibilities associated with representing the City. If the voting delegate is unable to fulfill their responsibilities, the alternate voting delegate will act in their absence.

PRE-MEETING COUNCIL DIRECTION

 Prior to each meeting or conference, the City Clerk, or her or his designee, shall include a Study Session agenda report to review and discuss the items to be voted on at the meeting or conference. The City Council shall provide direction on the City’s position for each item (e.g., "support," "oppose," or "abstain" or any other appropriate direction).

 Delegates are required to vote on each item in accordance with the direction provided by the City Council.

 If an item is amended during the meeting or conference in a way that materially changes its intent, the delegate may use their discretion to vote but must strive to align their decision with the principles discussed by the City Council.

CITY COUNCIL POLICY ON SELECTION OF VOTING DELEGATES

POST MEETING REPORTING

 Within 30 days of the meeting or conference, the delegates shall provide a report to the City Council summarizing the items voted on and the actions taken, during their City Council comments. The report shall include any deviations from the City Council’s direction and an explanation for such deviations, if applicable.
