Recommendation from the Department of Parks andRecreation to adopt a bill for an ordinance creating ultural Affairs Commission and coordinating ba try issues of the Cultural Affairs Commission with the other recommending Bo r n Commissions for the City of n le o , Colorado. , BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVESIDENTIFIED The Cultural Affairs Commissions will provide systematic planning for the development of cultural s activities within the community and will devise and implement n arts " plan. They will be commissioned to apply for and accept gifts, rants, funds, contributions nd ests in furtherance lof a co+unity arts program. In June of 1995, the Parks and Recreation Commission.rec n e to City Council the creation of a Cultural Affairs Commission. The Parks and Recreation Commission met with CityCouncil t discuss the issue. The Cit Council gave direction to move forward ith the creation of the ultu un it. The ordinance is comprised two parts, the first establishing the Cultural Commission and the second providing for a joint meeting of the Boards and Commissions, Council has requested the sta fish ent t f a Cut r l commission. Upon therecommendation oft City Attorneyjoint eeting o T the Boards and Commissions has been established to coordinate and facilitate the priorities and requests for capital roect items. The benefit of a joint meeting wouldallow each Board and Commission to view not only the priorities of that Board ut the it s a whole. The desired result is to have a er f the Boardsn o issio ns see the process as a wholerather than just a small part. It is bg&ved that the joint 40 budget process will provide better communication and coordination and an overall "I g understanding of the i `s budget for capital r cts. This should1 n r individual questions as to why the City does or does not fund a worthwhiler j ct. Many of the requests to the City are worthwhile; however, due to the limited� funding s cts, priorities have to be made. This approach is conceptual n y l y motion fromt current . ordinance y eliminating Section 2 of the Ordinance. If Section 2 is deleted, under Charter, Planning and Zoningn rks and Recreation will still review capital it The other Boards and Commissions could still make requests t' the Council in the budget roc ss. It should be noted that the Water and Sewer Board has indicated that attendance should not be made mandatory for all members of the r nd Commission the joint meeting. The Water and Sewer Board has also indicated that their roly not be appropriate in that funin for the Water and Sewer Board is not from the General Fund, Council has the option of either establishing a policy making attendance optional or may delete the Water and Sewer Board from ction 2, of the Ordinance. FINANCIAL IMPACT The members of the Cultural Affairs Commission will serve without compensation. As with other Boards and Commissions, an operational u t will be established t assist the Cultural Affairs Commission in achieving their established goals.
