TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JAMES A. BERGMAN, CITY MANAGER
BY: JESSICA MATSON, DEPUTY CITY CLERK
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO AGREEMENT FOR
CONSULTANT SERVICES WITH SOUTH COUNTY CHAMBERS OF
COMMERCE, SUCCESSOR IN INTEREST TO ARROYO GRANDE &
GROVER BEACH CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
DATE: AUGUST 27, 2019
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
Approval of an amended agreement to reflect the name change of the Arroyo Grande &
Grover Beach Chamber of Commerce with its new name, the “South County Chambers
of Commerce.”
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
No impact on financial or personnel resources are identified for this amendment.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to execute
Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement for Consultant Services with South County
Chambers of Commerce consenting to the name change.
BACKGROUND:
In 2013, in conjunction with the formation of the AGTBID, the City entered into an
Agreement with the Arroyo Grande & Grover Beach Chamber of Commerce to administer
and manage the activities of the AGTBID and its Advisory Board. The AGTBID provides
revenue collected through an assessment levied on all lodging businesses with the
District, and the Advisory Board makes recommendations to the City Council on the
expenditure of the revenues derived from the assessments for the purpose of tourism
marketing and promotional efforts.
In June 2018, the City Council amended the Agreement (Amendment No. 1) to increase
the Chamber’s scope of work and annual funding from $20,000 to $30,000 due to the
Chamber’s increased role in administering a more proactive and engaged AGTBID,
including working directly with the City’s tourism marketing firm.
