FROM: City Manager
SUBJECT: Second Amendment to Agreement No. 4581 (CCS)
by and between the city of Santa Mon~ca and the Santa
Monica Convention & Visitors Bureau, Inc.
In October of 1985, the city entered into an agreement with
the Santa Monica Convention & visitors Bureau, Inc. ("Bureau II) for
services to promote tourism and travel to the city. The agreement
was amended in November of 1987. By letter dated June 29, 1993,
the City notified the Bureau of its intent not to automatically
extend the agreement, but instead to modify the agreement to enable
financial contribution decisions to be made on an annual basis.
The attached second amendment to the agreement is offered for
City Counc1l approval. The second amendment proposes four
modifications. The first modification is to allow the Bureau to
accept funds in an amount up to $100,000 from sources other than
the City without prior written approval of the City Council. The
second modification is to specify that the agreement is for a
period of five (5) fiscal years and is contingent upon annual
appropriation by the Santa Monica City Council of funds for each
fiscal year. The third modificat10n is to clar1fy the termination
notification provisions. The fourth modification includes a
nondiscrimination provision.
