By way of overheads, Ms. Melody Brunsting, Temecula Town Association, provided a

Mr. John Sterling, General Manager, further reviewed and provided clarification with
regard to the proposed budget, commenting on the difficulties to budget Police and Fire
costs and advised that with the exception of 20%, all owed Police and Fire costs from
previous events have been repayed.
11
Mayor Pro Tem Elect Stone commented on the Association's increase in sponsorship
request over last year ($40,000 from $10,000) to which Ms. Brunsting responded by
addressing increased costs associated with Police services, noting that this cost is a
variable and, therefore, difficult to control.
It was suggested by Councilman Lindemans that the City be responsible for associated
Police and Fire costs; that the City provide a sponsorship; and that if the organization
were to attain a net profit, that it be returned to the City.
Mayor Elect Ford suggested that the City approve a $10,000 sponsorship to the
organization; that the City be responsible for the Police/Fire support services; and that
the organization be required to repay the $10,000 sponsorship; but that the organization
retain any net profit.
Considering the associated costs with the sale of alcoholic beverages at this event,
Mayor Roberts suggested the elimination of the sale of alcohol. Ms. Brunsting noted
that although the suggestion could be reviewed for next year's event, she advised that
certain sponsors were obtained with the understanding that there would be sale of
alcohol.
Councilman Comerchero suggested that the Association be responsible to pay $5,000
for associated Police/Fire costs and that any amount in excess of that be the
responsibility of the City and, thereby, making the cost a fixed expense versus a
variable.
Mayor Pro Tem Elect Stone concurred that the Association should be responsible for a
portion of the Police/Fire costs associated with this event and that the sponsorship
request should be reviewed as a separate issue.
Councilman Lindemans suggested a $15,000 sponsorship for this year; that Police/Fire
costs be paid by the City; and that all net profits be retained by the Association with the
understanding that 50% be set aside as seed money for the year 2000 event.
Councilman Comerchero concurred with a $10,000 sponsorship fee in the form of a loan
and that the Association be responsible for $10,000 of Police/Fire costs - costs in
excess of that amount be the responsibility of the City.
Additional Council discussion ensued with following motion being offered:
MOTION: Councilman Lindemans moved to approve the agreement modified as
follows: that the City be responsible for associated costs relative to Police/Fire/Public
Works services necessary for the Temecula Rod Run event and that $10,000 be
approved in the form of a loan which is to be repaid to the City prior to the Association
disbursing any funds to any non-profit organizations. The motion was seconded by
Mayor Elect Ford and voice vote reflected unanimous approval.
Mr. John Sterling, General Manager, advised that Police costs associated with the
Frontier Days Rodeo are nominal.
MOTION: Councilman Lindemans moved to approve the Frontier Days Rodeo
Agreement with a sponsorship of $10,000 and that the City be responsible for any
12
Police/Fire/Public Works costs in the event they were to arise. The motion was
seconded by Mayor Elect Ford and voice vote reflected unanimous approval.
At 9:58 P.M., a recess was taken and the meeting reconvened at '10:09 P.M.

the administration of the 1999 Festival and briefly highlighted proposed changes to

Ms. Carol Popejoy-Hime, General Manager, in detail reviewed the proposed layout of
the 1999 Festival.
Mr. Marty Cooper, Public Relations and Marketing Firm representing the Association,
further commented and addressed issues such marketing positioning and
tourism/economic development.
Mr. Brown addressed and clarified the newly proposed balanced budget, requesting a
$35,000 cash sponsorship; that no costs be considered for Police/Fire services; and
advised that the Association does not make charitable contributions with its net profit.
MOTION: Councilman Lindemans moved to approve the agreement with a sponsorship
of $35,000; it was requested that $5,000 be deducted from the sponsorship to pay for
previously owed Police/Fire/Public Works services and, thereby, issuing a check in the
amount of $30,000. The motion was seconded by Councilman Comerchero and voice
vote reflected unanimous approval.
23 Redhawk/Vail Ranch Annexation
RECOMMENDATION:
23.1 Oral report from staff on status of annexation proposal.
Mayor Elect Ford noted that he would be abstaining with regard to this issue.
Community Development Director Thornhill presented the oral report, noting the
following:

for the annexation of Redhawk/Vail Ranch areas;

with the exception of Mayor Elect Ford who abstained.
ITEMS ADDED TO THE AGENDA BASED ON SUBSEQUENT NEED
City Attorney Thorson provided background information and clarification for the
placement of the proposed subsequent need items, noting that the work had progressed
faster than had been anticipated and, therefore, the proposed changes must be
approved and implemented within the week. Because these items arose after the
agenda was posted and action is required prior to the next meeting, Mr. Thorson noted
that the City Council may make a motion for subsequent need.
MOTION: Councilman Lindemans moved that the below-mentioned subsequent need
items be discussed as per Mr. Thorson's comments. The motion was seconded by
