Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
In 2006, the Board added Chapter 5.140 to the Mendocino County Code and created the Mendocino County Lodging Business Improvement District (BID). In 2015, the Board amended Chapter 5.140, in part requiring designation of a “Contractor” for administration of the BID. December 8, 2015, the Board adopted a Resolution designating the Mendocino County Tourism Commission (MCTC) as the County’s Contractor for this purpose. On February 9, 2016, and on June 20, 2017, the Board entered into an agreement with MCTC. On August 7, 2018, the Board entered into an agreement with MCTC. On June 18, 2019, the Board entered into an agreement with MCTC. On May 20, 2020, the Board entered into an agreement with MCTC.
Summary of Request:
Mendocino County Code Section 5.140.250 states in part “Prior to the expenditure of any District funds, the Contractor shall enter into a contract with the County for the services, activities and programs authorized by the Chapter. For several years, Mendocino County Tourism Commission has operated as the contractor for the County and is well respected in this role. Additionally, the contract includes a requirement that the Tourism Commission receive an annual financial audit, incorporates commitments the Board made through the General Plan, and includes recommendations made through the BID Annual Report. Approval of this agreement by the Board is necessary for the Tourism Commission to function as the County’s Contractor (its Board-designated role).
Alternative Action/Motion:
Provide direction to staff; do not approve this agreement. A contract is required prior to the expenditure of BID funds (MCC 5.140.250).
