This item is to request City Council Consider the Request for Sponsorship Program in support of the following:

1. Sebastopol Regional Library

2. Sonoma County Farm Trails - Gravenstein Apple Fair
BACKGROUND:

The City Council adopted a Community Sponsorship Policy No.84 in early September 2021. The policy established the parameters to promote significant and special community events primarily benefiting the Sebastopol community. City support of such program may consist of monetary funding and/or in-kind support. Community sponsorships can be an effective means to identify the event with the City and building community partnerships while raising revenue.

The purpose of this sponsorship policy is to set forth guidelines and criteria governing the granting of City of Sebastopol funds or in-kind services for the purpose ofsupporting local festivals, special events, community projects or programs. Although the City makes a concerted attempt to limit the amount of General Fund monies expended toward such sponsorship activity, the City recognizesthatsponsorships play a vital role in supporting our community, as well as to promote cultural experience and economic development efforts of the City.

As stated in Council Policy 84 Community Sponsorship.
“The City of Sebastopol recognizes that sponsorships play an important role in supporting our community and providing support for community events that are held for the following purposes:
• Support of nonprofit organizations, service clubs, groups or organizations serving the Sebastopol community; • Cultural, recreational and educational activities;
• Promotion of the City of Sebastopol

In order to expand access to a wide range of cultural experiences and diversified community connections for all its residents, the City of Sebastopol provides limited assistance to local organizations in support of community events that are consistent with the goals and priorities of the city and that serve a public purpose.” “Sponsorship – A sponsorship is any monetary or in-kind support from the City (City logo, City staff time, public safety services, and the use of City facilities or property, event permit fees, etc.) to the organizing agency that helps offset the costs of the event operations.”
DISCUSSION:

The City has received two requests for City Sponsorship:

1. The request is for waiver of fees in the amount of $5,012.50 for the permitting of the showers in the City parking lot from Sonoma County Library, Sebastopol Regional Library Branch for the following event.

Redwood Gospel Mission has been providing showerservicesintended for unsheltered individuals atsix Sonoma County locations through it's Mobile Shower Unit. The unit isself contained and water used will be stored within the unit to be driven away for safe disposal at a Santa Rosa facility. To mitigate hazards, Redwood Gospel brings carpets to cover cords. The Mobile Shower will be offered every Saturday from May 6, 2023 through December 30, 2023 at the South High St, Parking lot from 11am-12pm. This will enhance quality of life for vulnerable people who frequent the library, and the community at large.

2. Sonoma County Farm Trails is requesting for support of their Gravenstein Apple Fair. “The Gravenstein Apple Fair has been a treasured part of the Sebastopol landscape nearly each of the past 50 years during peak Gravenstein season. This year we are pleased to be gearing up for our Golden Jubilee, the 50th Annual celebration of the Gravenstein apple right here in Sebastopol” The amount requested is for $7,500 sponsorship to specifically support traffic mitigation and in-city promotion of the event.
$5,300 cash is requested to be applied toward shuttle service expenses ($3,900 for shuttles+ $300 for rental of the Holy Ghost Hall satellite parking lot on Mill Station Rd and $700 for in-city directional traffic sign upgrades and placement and $400 to offset costs of banner placement in the City). $2,200 in-kind is requested for Sebastopol Police Department traffic support at the entrance to Ragle Ranch Park.

Although this event is in the FY 23 24, the applicant has requested funding in this current fiscal year similar to the request last year.

City has supported the Gravenstein Apple Fair as Follows:
2021 $2,000 for in kind police services
2022 $3,000 for in kind police services
This year’s request is a request for $5,300 funding as well as $2,200 for in kind police services.

PUBLIC COMMENT:

As of the writing of this staff report, the city has not received any public comment. However, if staff receives public comment from interested parties following the publication and distribution of this staff report, such comments will be provided to the City Council as supplemental materials before or at the meeting. In addition, public comments may be offered during the public comment portion of the agenda item.

PUBLIC NOTICE:

This item was noticed in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act and was available for public viewing and review at least 72 hours prior to schedule meeting date.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Request 1: Fiscal impact would be waiver of fees for $5,012.50.

Request 2: Fiscal impact would be $7,500 sponsorship (in kind services as well as monetary support). The list below itemizes how will the City’s funds be used for this event.

Please note: Although historically the City has approved funding for this event in one fiscal year when the event actually occurs in the next fiscal year, due to the proposed deficit that the City is facing, the City is analyzing all requests for funding in light of the DRAFT proposed budget. Currently the City Budget Committee is actively going through the budget process for funding for the upcoming fiscal year as well as reviewing current fiscal year funding in light of the structural deficit.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the Mayor and City Council consider the following:

1. Waiver of fees in the amount of $5,012.50 for Sonoma County Library for the permitting of the showers in the City parking lot.

2. Whether or not to approve this request for funding for the Gravenstein Apple Fair.

If you are organizing one of these events, it is important that you make sure that Best Management Practices are put in place to prevent stormwater pollution during your event, Remember, in any ourdoor area, improper practices such as washing or storage of materials or improper disposal of waste materials into the storrn drain system, are sources of storm water pollution. Rainfall and runoff can be contaminated by materials spilled, leaked, or mislaid, Pollutants of concern at events where food is produced or sold, include sediment, oil and grease, organic materials and bacteria, and toxics such as cleaning products.

STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION AT PIIBLIC EYENTS
Sebastopol's calendar is busy all year with a wide variety of community events in our City parks and public spaces, including festivals, concerts, outdoor markets, holiday and other gatheringi. -
You should have a plan to prevent Storm Water Pollution from your event by following Best Management Practices (BMP$ and make sure that all participants and vendors are aware of ihe importance of protecting our watershed by eliminating improper discharges to stom drains.

Here are some ways to assure that pollution from your event does not reach local waterways,

TRAINING
I Inform vendors and participants of storrn water pollution sources and prevention. I Instruct employees in proper flIlling and transfer procedures as well as in waste control and disposal. sTo RAG It ( C',O NTA I N E R S )
J Use non'corrosive, non-leaking durable containers. Always use tightly sealed containers. I Inspect the external condition of containers. Look for leaks, corrosion, or other damage. I Store containers on an impervious surface or cover with weighted tarps or awnings.

WASTE STORAGB AND DISPOSAL
I Always contain waste in dumpsters, drums, or bags, Double bag Ieaky rubbish. a Store trash and other pollutant materials in a manner that prevents contact with rain (in a container with a closed lid or under cover). I Store all organic wastes (including food) under cover on an impervious surface until transfer to a landfill or composting facility.

PREVENT SPILLS AND UNUWFULDISCHARGES TO THE STORM DRAIN SYSTEM I Never allow vendors or other participants to dump any materials into the storm drain systern. This includes water, melted ice or 'leftovers' from food storage or displays. I Sweep-up trash and debris to prevent it from being washed into the storm drain when it rains. I Never wash down areas where spills have occuned by flushing with water into the street or storm drain. Use "dry spill cleanup" methods instead. I Segregate and dispose ofall hazardous wasto as per state law. I Clean up all spills immediately upon discovery, . REMEMBER, ONLY RAIN DOWN THE DRAIN

To the City of Sebastopol,
I am writing to you as a supporter of the Sonoma County Farm Trails and their request to you for sponsorship funds and traffic direction during the 2-day Gravenstein Apple Fair at the intersection of Ragle Rd. and Covert Ln. taking place on August 12th and 13th. As you may know, the Gravenstein Apple Fair is an annual Sebastopol tradition that started in 1973. It is a family-friendly community event that draws attendees from far and wide keeping Sebastopol as a destination in the heart of Sonoma County agriculture.

Harmony Farm Supply & Nursery is a long-time Farm Trails member and a proud sponsor of the Fair. We have been a strong supporter of the Gravenstein Apple Fair for many years through our sponsorship dollars and our participation as a vendor booth merchant. As a former Board member of Farm Trails, I personally participated as a traffic flow coordinator during the event, and I have direct experience with the traffic flow issues that arise during the weekend of the event which is why I believe that it would be incredibly valuable to have official Sebastopol Police directing traffic at the entrance to Ragle Park.

The volume of vehicles waiting to enter Ragle Park at the 4-way stop sign at the entrance historically causes traffic to be backed up all the way into downtown Sebastopol, particularly on Mill Station Rd., Covert Lane, Hwy 12, and Hwy 116. This impacts attendees, residents, and local businesses alike. Not to mention, this is the 50th year of the Gravenstein Apple Fair which is expected to bring an increased number of attendees ready to celebrate this wonderful milestone. Having official Sebastopol Police Department officers directing the flow of traffic would significantly mitigate traffic jams and provide smoother and safer entry to the fair for vendors, presenters, musicians, volunteers, and attendees.

Your consideration and support would be greatly appreciated by all city residents, as well as those coming here from miles away to enjoy this historic 50th year.

I strongly support Farm Trails and hope that you will honor their request. Thank you for your time and attention.
