STAFF REPORT

Mayor and City Council
FROM:
city staff
SUBJECT:
RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE ALTERNATE RACE ROUTE
INTRODUCTION
The city's Event Management Team has received a request from st.
Monica's Church for a running race permit involving an alternate
race route. The following outlines this request and recommends
approval of the race date and the alternate race route.
BACKGROUND
On May 17, 1983, the City Council approved Resolution 6688 (CCS)
establishing procedures and criteria for conducting running races
in Santa Monica. These guidelines were established to benefit
the city and lessen the impact such events have on certain areas
of the City.
The resolution stipulates an annual limit of six 10K and/or
marathon races unless waived by a motion approved by the city
Council. Three races were listed as part of the annual six:

.
.
1. Santa Monica Recreation and Parks Department 10K
2. santa Monica Recreation and Parks Department Marathon
3. Social Services 10K
In addition, applicant groups are given priority in the following
order if they meet other listed criteria:
1. City of Santa Monica sponsored races;
2. Santa Monica based non-profit groups:
3. Santa Monica based commercial interest with races of
national significance;
4. Non-Santa Monica based commercial interest with races of
national significance.
The resolution further designates approved city courses which
are: Route A - a lOK course on the south side of town, Route B -
a 10K course on the north side of town, and Route C - the city
Marathon course. The City Council by motion, however, may
approve other running race routes.
Finally, the
addition to
notification
rental, etc.
resolution establishes a $10,000 race
all inherent costs including police,
flyers mailed to affected residents,
fee in
signage,
barricade
DISCUSSION
st. Monica's Church has requested September 30, 1989, for their
race date. While this date is within 35 days of the Santa Monica
Marathon, the st. Monicats route choice only duplicates a twelve
block area of the marathon. The area in question is Ocean Avenue

from Margueri ta Avenue to Washington Avenue ( 5 blocks), and

to Fourth Street, south on Fourth street to Washington
Avenue, and east on WaShington Avenue to the finish
(between Seventh Street and Lincoln Boulevard).
