ACTION Authorize staff to more forward for sounds systems repairs and REQUESTED: calibration and advanced sound training pending funding approval. BACKGROUND: Trustee Ron Stowell has raised questions about the sound system in the theatre. Mr. Stowell’s concerns with the system are: • Speakers lack depth. The speakers produce high-frequency sound, mid- and low-range sound is lacking. • Interference through the system. There is concern that unshielded speaker wire was used in the installation process and is the cause of the interference. • Sound board is limited. The current board lacks the ability to add effects, primarily reverb. • Speakers near the balcony are not functioning properly. After visiting with Mr. Stowell and former manager Barbara Smith, it was agreed the first course of action would be to have a company come in and analyze the system, determine if what we have is working and installed properly and then make recommendations on how to address any items not working correctly and what options are available to help improve the sound quality in the theatre. On Monday, Feb. 23, Mr. Stowell and I met with Dane Warner of Warner Sound & Video/Techsico to discuss the Coleman Theatre sound system. Mr. Warner examined the equipment in place and, after evaluating the system, made the following statements: • The speakers in the theatre are adequate for the type of facility and entertainment offered at the Coleman Theatre. There are two main speakers near the balcony that are not working, unsure as to why. • The wiring used to wire the speakers is adequate. Any issues with wiring would result in a loss of volume and would not contribute to feedback. Feedback is likely due to a microphone issue and not the use of unshielded speaker wiring. After listening to the sound system, Mr. Warner noted there was no issue with volume loss. • The sound board currently in use is a very good professional board. To purchase a board with the types of effects Mr. Stowell is wanting, Mr. Warner said the theatre would have to drop down to a cheaper model to purchase one with reverb. Mr. Warner recommended purchasing an external reverb board that could be attached to the sound board if that was something the Trust wanted to add. The cost to add a reverb board would be around $400. • The theatre’s sound system needs to be recalibrated and the house equalizer set and left alone. Mr. Warner wants to determine why two main speakers are not working and bring them online before calibrating the system. That process would run about $800 to $1,500 depending on what needs to be done. • A four-hour training seminar should be held once the system has been calibrated. The seminar would offer instruction on how to properly operate the sound board. The seminar would be open to up to 20 participants of staff’s choosing. Mr. Warner recommended that only those individuals completing the training system be allowed to operate the sound board. The cost for the seminar is $600. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends moving forward with Mr. Warner’s plan, minus the purchase of the reverb unit, pending funding approval. Based on Mr. Warner’s proposal, total cost for the project, minus the reverb unit, would be in the $1,400 to $1,500 range. MOTION: “I move to approve Coleman Theatre sound system repairs and calibration, minus the reverb unit, and the advanced sound system training seminar pending funding approval.

The request is being made to help the organization keep its expenses down. As a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization, the foundation relies on the generous support and contributions from members of the community. It has raised funds to increase its endowment and award teachers with grants that are used to enrich the lives of young people. RECOMMENDATION: N/A MOTION: “I move to waive the rental fees ($875) for use of the Coleman Conference Center and Ballroom by the Miami Public Schools Enrichment Foundation for its annual fundraiser scheduled March 27, 2015. PRESENTER(S): Paul Marquez, Chairman, Miami Public Schools Enrichment Foundation RESOLUTION NO. ___________ A RESOLUTION OF THE MIAMI DOWNTOWN REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF THE CITY OF MIAMI, OKLAHOMA, PROVIDING FOR WAIVER OF ALL OR SOME PART OF AN ADMINISTRATIVE FEE IN A PARTICULAR INSTANCE IN FURTHERANCE OF A PUBLIC PURPOSE. WHEREAS, Section 27-5 (Discretionary Waiver of Administrative Fees) of Chapter 27 (Budget and Finance) of the Code of Ordinances states as follows: “Administrative fees imposed by the Code of Ordinances may be waived in whole or in part on a case-by-case basis only by written resolution of the City Council. Fee waivers shall be granted only when said waiver serves a public purpose.” WHEREAS, 11 O.S. §1-101(12) defines “Resolution” in pertinent part as follows: “… a special or temporary act of a municipal governing body which is declaratory of the will or opinion of a municipality in a given matter and is in the nature of a ministerial or administrative act. A resolution is not a law and does not prescribe a permanent rule … “ WHEREAS, the following described individual or organization has made application for the waiver of an administrative fee or fees as follows: Applicant: Miami Public Schools Enrichment Foundation Event: Annual Fundraiser Date: March 27, 2015 Facility: Coleman Conference Center and Ballroom The regular scheduled fee(s) for this facility and/or use is: Administration Fee: $75.00 (Non-Refundable Cleaning Fee) Deposit: $200.00 (Linen rental) Rental: $600.00 (Standard rental fee) Total: $875.00 The applicant has requested the waiver of all of the regular scheduled fee(s) for this facility and/or use on the date(s) in question for the following stated reason(s): The Miami Public Schools Enrichment Foundation asks that you consider waiving fees for its annual fundraiser on March 27, 2015, at the Coleman Ballroom. The request is being made to help the organization keep its expenses down. As a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization, the foundation relies on the generous support and contributions from members of the community. It has raised funds to increase its endowment and award teachers with grants that are used to enrich the lives of young people. Page 1 of 3 WHEREAS, the City Manager and/or Staff have reviewed this Application and have determined that they (1) ___X___ have no recommendation; (2) or have the following recommendation: N/A WHEREAS, the City Attorney has provided the following summary of legal advice: “The City Attorney advises the City Council that 11 O.S. §33-103 provides that “… [a]ny governing body is hereby authorized and empowered to establish, provide, maintain, construct and conduct recreational activities on local nongovernmental properties as well as on publicly-owned facilities”, and that general municipal power to provide for parks and recreation empowers the City to assess and/or waive fees for such purposes. However, the City Attorney cautions that the administration of the fee structure(s) must not be “… arbitrary, discriminatory or unreasonable…”, and so it is his legal duty to inform you that the City Council should be very cautious about administering rates for parks and recreation services in a manner which inexplicably favors one activity or entity over another due at least in part to exposure to potential legal claims for arbitrary, discriminatory or unreasonable fee administration. Mitigating factors may include, inter alia, specific economic benefit in the form of increased sales tax and hotel tax revenues; however, the City Attorney recommends that a documented effort be made to support such assertion(s) before relying on them. At a minimum, the City Attorney advises the Council to consider the policy implications of partial waivers which recover actual additional expenditures by the City, which in this case has been estimated at $75.00 by Kevin Browning. The City Attorney acknowledges that such policy determinations are entrusted to the sound discretion of the City Council and he does not mean to imply that recovery of those out-of-pocket costs is a requirement of the law. Similarly the City Attorney gives no opinion about the policy considerations concerning the application of gate or advertising proceeds of the event which may be subsidized in part by the expenditure of public municipal funds via the requested fee waiver, although he suggests consideration of the same and encourages Council Members to make any such inquiry in advance of the meeting where this Resolution shall be considered for possible approval.” NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and City Council of the City of Miami, Oklahoma, as follows: ______The Application is denied; OR ______The Application is granted in whole (or in part) as stated herein because this waiver of administrative fees shall serve a legitimate public purpose as stated below: The Miami Public Schools Enrichment Foundation asks that you consider waiving fees for its annual fundraiser on March 27, 2015, at the Coleman Ballroom.

Similarly the City Attorney gives no opinion about the policy considerations concerning the application of gate or advertising proceeds of the event which may be subsidized in part by the expenditure of public municipal funds via the requested fee waiver, although he suggests consideration of the same and encourages Council Members to make any such inquiry in advance of the meeting where this Resolution shall be considered for possible approval.” NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and City Council of the City of Miami, Oklahoma, as follows: ______The Application is denied; OR ______The Application is granted in whole (or in part) as stated herein because this waiver of administrative fees shall serve a legitimate public purpose as stated below: The Ministerial Alliance would like to use the Coleman Theatre on Saturday, April 4, 2015, to show the film, “The Passion of the Christ.” The Ministerial Alliance is covering the applicable license fees through Swank Motion Pictures and asking for the fees to be waived to show the movie in the Coleman Theatre.

WHEREAS, Section 27-5 (Discretionary Waiver of Administrative Fees) of Chapter 27 (Budget and Finance) of the Code of Ordinances states as follows: “Administrative fees imposed by the Code of Ordinances may be waived in whole or in part on a case-by-case basis only by written resolution of the City Council. Fee waivers shall be granted only when said waiver serves a public purpose.” WHEREAS, 11 O.S. §1-101(12) defines “Resolution” in pertinent part as follows: “… a special or temporary act of a municipal governing body which is declaratory of the will or opinion of a municipality in a given matter and is in the nature of a ministerial or administrative act. A resolution is not a law and does not prescribe a permanent rule … “ WHEREAS, the following described individual or organization has made application for the waiver of an administrative fee or fees as follows: Applicant: Modoc Tribe of Oklahoma Event: “Week of the Young Child 2015” Date: April 14-15, 2015 Facility: Coleman Theatre The regular scheduled fee(s) for this facility and/or use is: Administration Fee: $150.00 (Non-Refundable Cleaning Fee, 2 days) Rental: $400.00 (Standard rental fee, 2 days) Total: $575.00 The applicant has requested the waiver of all of the regular scheduled fee(s) for this facility and/or use on the date(s) in question for the following stated reason(s): The Modoc Tribe of Oklahoma is requested the rental fee waiver for the Coleman Theatre to present its “Week of the Young Child 2015” program April 14-15, 2015.

However, the City Attorney cautions that the administration of the fee structure(s) must not be “… arbitrary, discriminatory or unreasonable…”, and so it is his legal duty to inform you that the City Council should be very cautious about administering rates for parks and recreation services in a manner which inexplicably favors one activity or entity over another due at least in part to exposure to potential legal claims for arbitrary, discriminatory or unreasonable fee administration. Mitigating factors may include, inter alia, specific economic benefit in the form of increased sales tax and hotel tax revenues; however, the City Attorney recommends that a documented effort be made to support such assertion(s) before relying on them. At a minimum, the City Attorney advises the Council to consider the policy implications of partial waivers which recover actual additional expenditures by the City, which in this case has been estimated at $75.00 by Kevin Browning.
