CITY OF DUBLIN
AGENDA STATEMENT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: February 12, 1990
SUBJECT: Budget Transfer for Production of Community
Television Civic Center Documentary
(Prepared by: Paul S. Rankin, Assistant City Manager)
EXHIBITS ATTACHED: Invoice from Community Television
RECOMMENDATION: '7( uthorize an additional appropriation from the Non-
Departmental Contingent Reserve to the City Council
Community Promotion account.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Total amount to be appropriated $3,020.
DESCRIPTION: As indicated in the Tri-Valley Community Television
(CTV) Mid-Year Report, the Corporation Board of Directors has developed a
policy of recovering the entire cost associated with productions beyond
normal programming. CTV prepared a documentary on the Dublin Civic Center,
which was shown at the Civic Center dedication event.
CTV has provided the City with an invoice which details the cost of the
production. The video consists of film taken during the construction
process along with interviews with City officials. Overall, the video is a
high quality production.
CTV has indicated the total costs for the video were $3,021 .25. Staff
recognizes that this cost is well below what the City could expect to pay
for a privately produced film. Private production costs can run up to
$1 ,000 for each minute of finished tape.
As previously, indicated to the City Council, funding for this production
was not included in the approved 1989-90 City Budget. Therefore, it will
be necessary for the City Council to approve an additional appropriation
from the Contingent Reserve to the City Council Community Promotion Account
in the amount of $3,020.
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the transfer and authorize
payment of the invoice as submitted.
