Options and Alternatives:

A) Approve the License Agreement as presented
B) Direct staff to revise the License Agreement
C) Not approve the License Agreement

Background and History:

License Agreements are coordinated each year between user groups and Jay Lively Activity Center staff with the approval of the City Attorney's office and the Risk Manager. Most of these agreements are under $50,000 in revenue to the City and do not require Council approval.  Due to the level of revenue anticipated with this agreement ($65,000), the City Attorney's Office recommends City Council approval.

Key Considerations:

Flagstaff Youth Hockey Association (FYHA) is in good standing and continues to pay their invoices in a timely manner.

Community Benefits and Considerations:

The FYHA paid the City of Flagstaff a total of $63,043 for fiscal year 2018-2019. Schedule changes, cancelations and additions of ice time are expected throughout the next year and will be addressed in the actual rental fee invoices at that time.

Community Involvement:

Approving the contract allows youth and coaches to continue utilizing ice time for games, practices, hockey camps and clinics.

Expanded Options and Alternatives:

The City of Flagstaff Jay Lively Activity Center staff continue to work closely with all user groups to divide up usable ice time in a fair and equitable manner.
