| Subject: | Resolution 26-R-061 - Authorizing an amendment to the service agreement with Magic in the Sky, LLC, for an expanded fireworks display for the 50th Jubilee & America 250 Celebration. (S.Gonzalez/L.Shrum) |
BACKGROUND
At the May 20, 2025 City Council Meeting, council approved a contract with Magic in the Sky, LLC to perform firework shows at July 4th Jubilee. The total cost was not to exceed $23,000 per year with a term of 3 years through July 30, 2028; with the option to renew for two (2) additional terms of one (1) year. Because the potential total for the entire contract is over $100,000, an amendment for the contract is needed to expand the fireworks show for this year's special one-time celebration, commemorating the 50th July 4th Jubilee and America's 250th Anniversary. The amendment is allowing for an additional $8,000 to be spent this year, 2026, on an expanded fireworks finale with a 228% increase in shells as shown in the table below.
