<br /> <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION <br /> <br />ITEM DESCRIPTION: Consider Approval of Hold Harmless Agreement with the New Brighton <br />Farmer’s Market <br />DEPARTMENT HEAD’S APPROVAL: Jennifer Fink, Director of Parks and Recreation <br />CITY MANAGER’S APPROVAL: <br />No comments to supplement this report ___ Comments attached ___ <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />Approve the hold harmless agreement with the New Brighton Farmer’s Market for use of the parking <br />lot facilities at the New Brighton Community Center (NBCC) for the 2019 market season. <br /> <br />Legislative History: <br />None <br /> <br />Financial Impact: <br />None <br /> <br />Explanation: <br />The Parks and Recreation Department has collaborated with the New Brighton Farmer’s Market to <br />host the weekly market in the upper lot of the Community Center property. The Market was looking <br />for a new home after Global Academy purchased the former Seminary property, making it difficult to <br />host their event. (Impact to school hours and transportation) <br /> <br />Staff enthusiastically endorses this event and its location at the NBCC. Many in the community <br />believe that the City has some ownership of this event. While that is not the case, we are excited to <br />be a partner and host to an event that will draw hundred each week to the Community Center. <br /> <br /> <br />___________________ <br />Jennifer Fink <br />Director of Parks and Recreation <br /> <br />Attachment <br /> <br /> <br />Agenda Section: Consent <br />Report Date: 05/08/19 <br />Council Meeting Date: 05/14/19
