Working Together to Serve
Date: August 23, 2022
To: Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Councilwoman Suzie Price, Third District
Subject: Community Concert Featuring the Knyght Ryder
RECOMMENDATION:
Increase appropriations in the General Fund Group in the City Manager Department by $2,000, offset by the Third Council District One -Time District Priority Funds transferred from the Citywide Activities Department to support the Community Concert scheduled for September 10, 2022; and
Decrease appropriations in the General Fund Group in the Citywide Activities Department by $2,000 to offset a transfer to the City Manager Department.
INTRODUCTION:
Community concerts have become a staple of both spring and summer in Long Beach.
As we have seen countless restrictions applied to community events and gatherings over the past two years, the opportunity to host a community concert in our fantastic Long Beach Parks is an important way for residents to enjoy our city in a positive community- focused way. The benefits community concerts have by creating an event for families, friends, and neighbors to spend time together, is an important part of community development and building neighborhoods. With these clear City priorities in mind, it is appropriate for the City to support this event.
This matter has been reviewed by Budget Manager Grace H. Yoon on August 19, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This recommendation requests an increase in appropriations in the General Fund Group in the City Manager Department by $2,000 for a community concert scheduled for September 10, 2022. The total appropriation increase of $2,000 in the General Fund Group in the City Manager Department will be offset by a decrease of appropriation of the Third Council District One-Time District Priority Funds in the General Fund Group in the Citywide Activities Department. The requested action is anticipated to require a minimal level of staff hours beyond the normal budgeted scope of duties and expected to have minimal impact on existing City Council priorities. There is no local job impact associated with the recommendation.
STATEMENT OF URGENCY:
As this concert is scheduled for September 10, 2022, funding is sought prior to the event.
