Minutes note: Kate Borders, Director of Easttown Association, at the table. Ms. Borders says that each night of Jazz in the Park is currently viewed as a separate event needing a temporary extension. This ordinance would eliminate the requirement of Easttown Association to file a temporary extension for each night. Ald. Coggs asks why the city should eliminate a source of funds when it is having difficulty with the budget. She says that the seventy-five dollar fee is nominal and maintaining the current requirement would be a way of providing more revenue for the city. Ms. Borders says that Jazz in the Park is not a profitable event, but it does contributes money to the city in other ways. She says that if the event continues to not make a profit or break even, it will probably not continue. Motion by Zielinski to place on file. Prevailed 4-1. (Ald. Kovac voting “no”)
