CITY CLERK'S OFFICE - MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Councilmember Vazquez
Date: September 24, 2013
13 -C: Request of Councilmember Vazquez that the Council allocate $15,000 in
Council contingency funds to expand the City's celebration of Dias de los
Muertos this year. Last year the event was funded out of one -time department
savings. This amount requested, approximately double the $7,700 budget of
last year's event, would allow the City to provide additional musicians and
workshops as part of the City's event at Woodlawn Cemetery and would also
support expanded marketing and outreach for the many other community
based celebrations of this important cultural tradition of residents of the Pico
Neighborhood.
