CONSENT CALENDAR
Agreements
Item 8ab. Agreement Extension with Aramark. In 2003, the City entered into an agreement
with Aramark Enterprises to provide concessionaire services for Rabobank Arena and
Convention Center. The agreement has been amended and extended three times since
2003, with the City receiving both increases in the percentage of concession sales and
investment in the concession infrastructure from Aramark. Over the past several years, the
investments in new point of sale carts and other items have increased concession sales at
the facilities and in particular the Convention Center. Staff is requesting Council's approval of
a fourth amendment to the agreement, which will allow Aramark to continue to provide the
concessionaire services until 2023. In return, Aramark is proposing to invest $275,000 in
additional concession infrastructure at the facilities, which will include a new portable cart
and kitchen equipment upgrades. In addition, Aramark has agreed to increase the
so
percentage of the City receives from concession sales and will implement a surcharge
program, which will assist the City in attracting top entertainment acts to the facilities.
Miscellaneous
Item 8ay. Audit Reports. The City Charter requires an annual audit by independent certified
public accountants. The accounting firm of Brown Armstrong Accountancy Corporation
recently completed its audit of the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 2016. The current year audit opinion issued by the outside auditors
indicates that the City complied, in all material respects, with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. Staff is recommending the City Council refer all
of these reports to the Budget and Finance Committee for review and discussion. Upon
completion of the Committee review the reports will return to the full Council at a future
Council meeting for acceptance.
