THE CITY OF 2 <br /> pL£ASANTON0 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT <br /> December 1, 2009 <br /> City Attorney's Office <br /> TITLE: ADOPT POLICY FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF EVENT TICKETS <br /> SUMMARY <br /> The California Fair Political Practices Commission has enacted a regulation that <br /> requires that the City adopt a written policy for the distribution of event tickets which are <br /> received or purchased by the City to ensure that the use of such tickets serves a public <br /> purpose. The proposed policy meets these requirements by: listing the permissible <br /> public purposes for the use of such tickets; establishing the City Manager as the official <br /> to administer the policy; clarifying exemptions; and formalizing reporting on the City's <br /> website. <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached resolution adopting the <br /> Policy for the Distribution of Event Tickets. (Attachment 1) <br /> FINANCIAL STATEMENT <br /> This action has no financial impact because it effectively formalizes the current duties of <br /> the City Manager to ensure that event tickets received or purchased by the City are <br /> used for a public purpose. Reporting the use of such tickets on the City's website would <br /> only require de minimis effort by staff in the City Clerk's Office and Information <br /> Technology Division, and would be part of their normal duties. <br />
