Once again, the City has been asked to be the presenting sponsorfor 2021. Due to the implementation of the sponsorship policy, staff is presenting this request to City Council for consideration. Due to COVID-19 pandemic that began last spring, the LPEF annual golf tournament that was scheduled for April 29, 2020 had to be rescheduled for October 21, 2020. The th LPEF will host their 17Annual Golf Tournament at Bay Forest Golf Courseon April 28, 2021. However, due to the pandemic the LPEF Board has decided to only have one ight starting at 1pm. In previous three years (2017-2020) the City has been the presenting sponsor at a cost of $2,500 each year. Additionally, the City contributes a sleeve of three (3)City logo golf balls to each participant in the golf tournament whichcost the City of approximately $1,705. In anticipating the same request from LPEF, staff has budgeted $4,205 to cover the cost for the presenting sponsorship and City logo golf balls in the FY 2020-21 budget under the Community Investment division of Administration (General Fund). th City staff recommends approval of the $2,500 sponsorship to the LPEF for their 17 Annual Golf Tournament at Bay Forest Golf Course combined with the budgeted $1,705 for purchase of a sleeve of City logo golf balls to be distributed to each participant.
