I attended high school in Kalispell, Montana, graduating with honors and earning three Academic All-State awards, one team state championship, one individual state championship, and a 3.9 GPA (4.0 scale). Beginning in the fall of 2016, I attended San Diego State University before accepting a golf scholarship to Marymount California University. I later completed my studies at Montana State University, graduating with a degree in Economics in the summer of 2019. Following my education, I worked at Mann Mortgage as a Loan Officer Assistant, Loan Officer, and ultimately a Strategic Business Manager. After Mann Mortgage was acquired by Synergy 1 Lending, I continued working as a Loan Officer while simultaneously serving as Project Manager for a housing development in Montrose, Colorado, known as “The Grove.” I am now a consultant for Mann, Inc. and will be representing Mann Developers full-time to support and ensure the successful execution of The Trails at Shurtz Canyon development.  Item #03 To: Mayor & City Council From: Jason Clark Date: 7-15-2026 Subject: Heritage Theater and Festival Hall Rate Increases At the direction of the City Council, staff of the Heritage Theater and Festival Hall are recommending an increase in rental rates and associated fees. To ensure the proposed rates remain competitive, staff conducted a thorough review of fees charged by comparable meeting rooms, theaters, and event venues in the region. We believe the updated rates are fair, reasonable, and aligned with current market conditions. Previously, and in accordance with earlier Councils directions, our primary focus was on maximizing facility utilization by filling the calendar with events. We are now shifting our approach to align with the current Council’s emphasis on increasing revenue generation from these public assets. This adjustment will help ensure the long-term financial sustainability of the facilities while continuing to serve the community. Staff remains committed to actively pursuing new business opportunities and will work creatively within current policies to attract and accommodate events that benefit both the City and our residents. Festival Hall Rate Comparison - Proposed Festival Hall Cost per sqft per 4 hrs Room 1 $ 0.16 $0.44 Room 2 $ 0.20 Room 3 $ 0.20 Room 4 $ 0.18 Room 5 $ 0.20 Room 6 $ 0.16 $0.33 Room 7 $ 0.14 Tower Room $ 0.26 Single Basement $ 0.18 $0.26 $0.26 Double Basement $ 0.16 $0.24 Full Basement $ 0.16 $0.20 $0.20 $0.20 Grand Lobby $ 0.10 $0.18 $0.18 Other Venues $0.17 $0.16 $0.16 $0.16 $0.16 $0.15 $0.15 The Barn $ 0.44 $0.14 $0.14 The Venue $ 0.15 SUU Student Center $ 0.10 $0.10 $0.10 Hilton - Spark $ 0.17 $0.07 $0.07 Iron Springs $ 0.33 Festival Hall Cost per sqft per 4 hrs Dixie Center $ 0.07 SUU Ballroom $ 0.07 SUU Hunter Ctr $ 0.14 Hampton Inn $ 0.24 Marriot - Courtyard $ 0.26 Marriot - Springhill $ 0.15 Page 2 of 2  Heritage Theater Examples Examples Total Event Cost $4,400.00 $4,162.50 Event A Current Cost $ 1,783.75 $3,507.50 1st Proposed Increase $ 2,217.50 Current Proposed Increase $ 2,950.00 $2,950.00 Event B Current Cost $ 3,507.50 $2,560.00 $2,217.50 1st Proposed Increase $ 4,162.50 $2,085.00 Current Proposed Increase $ 4,400.00 $1,965.00 $1,783.75 $1,568.50 Event C $1,306.00 Current Cost $ 1,965.00 $1,221.00 1st Proposed Increase $ 2,085.00 Current Proposed Increase $ 2,560.00 Event D Current Cost $ 1,221.00 1st Proposed Increase $ 1,306.00 Current Proposed Increase $ 1,568.50  Heritage Theater Rate - Current Rental Rate with Heritage Theater basic lights and Theater Sun-Thur $ 750.00 $2,500.00 Theater Fri-Sat $ 800.00 Rehearsal S-Th $ 475.00 Rehearsal F-S $ 500.00 $1,550.00 $1,250.00 $1,000.00 $800.00 $800.00 $800.00 $750.00 $475.00 $500.00 Other Venues Randall L Jones $ 1,000.00 UTU - America First Arts Center Rehearsa $ 1,250.00 UTU - America First Arts Center Show $ 2,500.00 Covey Center $ 1,550.00 Cedar High $ 800.00 Canyon View High $ 800.00  Heritage Theater Rate - Proposed Price Per Heritage Theater Seat $2.28 Theater Sun-Thur $ 0.96 $2.10 Theater Fri-Sat $ 1.06 Rehearsal S-Th $ 0.58 Rehearsal F-S $ 0.61 $1.30 $1.14 $1.06 $1.05 $0.96 $0.89 $0.58 $0.61 Other Venues Randall L Jones $ 1.30 UTU - America First Arts Center Rehearsa $ 1.05 UTU - America First Arts Center Show $ 2.10 Covey Center $ 2.28 Cedar High $ 1.14 Canyon View High $ 0.89  HERITAGE THEATER AND FESTIVAL HALL $50 non-refundable deposit credited toward rental chrages for each event booked in Festival Hall.
