Consideration of City Promotional Program City Manager David Dixon presented an oral staff report outlining the activities of the Council Ad Hoc Committee comprised of Mayor Pro Tem Birdsall and Councilmember Lindemans. He then introduced Merry Lee Olson and Ken Dodd of the firm of Olson and Dodd to present a promotional plan developed for the Council's consideration. Merry Lee Olson outlined the program objectives, promotional goals, marketing strategies, and the approach. Ken Dodd presented the suggested media plan. Ms. Olson then outlined the proposed budget for the plan and introduced representative of the firm of I.T.D. Productions who introduced a video presentation which was produced for the City of Oceanside, RBF Company and the Rancho California Water District. Councilmember Mu~oz asked if this program is envisioned to be a one year program or something more long-range. Ms. Olson responded that the program is designed to be ongoing but the budget would not include production costs after the first year. Councilmember Lindemans stated that the committee felt the program should be looked at as a pilot program and the budget should not be considered to be a hard and fast one. Mayor Parks questioned if any other agencies have been requested to participate in this promotional program. City Manager Dixon responded that the Economic Development Corporation (EDC) has approached the City of Murrieta and, at this point, it appears the funding will have to come from the City of Temecula. He also advised the advertising will take a broad, regional approach but will be designed to highlight the City of Temecula. Kirk Wright, 28266 Front Street, speaking on behalf of the EDC stated that they agree with the basic approach to a promotional campaign recommended by Olson and Dodd. He presented the City Council with a summary of how the £DC would work with the City in a marketing campaign. He also requested that the City Council consider establishing an advisory committee to assist in developing the components of a promotional plan. Jane Vernon, 30268 Mersey Court, spoke in favor of the City offering any company interested in locating in the City a timeline which would guarantee a completion date. She suggested that a program of incentives could be offered to assure the timeline is met. Minutes\ 121791 -5- City Council Minutes December 17. 1991 Bill Johnson, representing Johnson + Johnson, spoke in favor of an aggressive marketing program for the area known as Rancho California featuring Temecula as the centerpiece city. It was moved by Councilmember Moore, seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Birdsall to direct staff to proceed with the program at the proposed budget level of $260,000. Councilmember Mu~oz stated he is concerned that the City should be consolidating this effort through an organization such as the EDC. He also questioned if the program should be approved when it has not been through the competitive bidding process and indicated a concern that the City is the single funding source for this project when it benefits the whole area. Councilmember Moore stated she feels there is a very real urgency to begin this process at this time to capitalize on any upswing in the economy as it occurs. Mayor Parks asked that the advertising budget be studied very carefully to assure that jobs are targeted and asked staff to prepare a report addressing the anticipated return on the City's investment. City Attorney Scott Field responding to a question from Councilmember Mu~oz stated there are no firm bidding requirements for professional services. He advised that typically a Request for Proposals is issued for this type of service. City Manager Dixon advised that the program proposal will be very carefully monitored and it is the committee's intention to work closely with the EDC. The motion on the floor carried unanimously. RECESS Mayor Parks called a recess at 8:20 PM to accommodate the previously scheduled Temecula Community Services District meeting. The meeting was reconvened at 8:54 PM. 14.
