Assistant City Manager
On October 19, 2010, the City Council approved a $3,000 sponsorship of the Earl Anthony
Memorial Open which included a National Tour stop; an event presented by the Professional
Bowlers Association (PBA) and aired live on ESPN in January 2011.
On March 6, 2012, the City Council approved a $1,000 sponsorship of the Earl Anthony
Memorial PBA Open Regional /Senior event to help offset operational costs associated with
hosting the event.

This year, the PBA will be hosting a Memorial PBA Open event in Dublin, April 12 -14, 2013. In
conjunction with the tournament, a Junior and Senior Pro -Am will also be held. In preparation
for the event, Ted Hoffman, owner of Earl Anthony's Dublin Bowl, submitted a sponsorship
request in the amount of $1,000 to the City (Attachment 1). Staff evaluated his request and
recommends that the City Council approve the $1,000 sponsorship. In addition to helping to
offset operational costs associated with hosting the event, the City will receive recognition as a
major sponsor at the event, as well as signage above the bowling lanes, and on collateral
material developed to support the event.
This activity was not part of the adopted Fiscal Year 2012 -13 Budget and Staff has prepared a
budget change (Attachment 2). The appropriation will be made with a transfer from the General
Fund Budgeted Contingent Reserve.
CONCLUSION:
The California Constitution prohibits the Legislature from making a gift of public funds.
However, where public funds are used for a public purpose, such an expenditure is
constitutionally permissible, even if a private person benefits. Staff believes that this
sponsorship is a public purpose in that it will increase tourism to the City of Dublin, which in turn
will generate additional sales /transient occupancy tax revenues to allow the City to provide
quality services to residents and businesses.

Memo to: Mayor Tim Sbranti, City of Dublin
Re: 2013 Earl Anthony Memorial PBA Open
Happy New Year. I wish you and your family a very happy, healthy and prosperous New
Year.
I am pleased to announce that the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) will be
returning to Earl Anthony's Dublin Bowl for its annual tournament. The EARL ANTHONY
MEMORIAL PBA OPEN will be held the weekend of April 12 -14, 2013.
Many of the top PBA Touring Pro's, National and Regional Champions are planning to
attend. In conjunction with the Tournament, we will be hosting a Junior & Senior Pro -Am on
Friday, April 12`h, and the Adult Pro-Am will be held Saturday, April 13, 2013. We are
anticipating a field of 144 players.
I am asking the City of Dublin to help me in bringing the PBA back to Dublin. I am
looking for a sponsorship of $1,000.00 to help with rites fees to the PBA, and additional costs in
hosting the event. I will make a formal presentation to you and City Council members at a later
date. I thank you in advance for all your considerations.
