Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
The California Highway Patrol Senior Volunteers in cooperation with the El Dorado Community Foundation is hosting a Car Show fundraiser on September 30, 2023, with proceeds benefiting the local community. One hundred percent of the event’s profit will be distributed to various community non-profit organizations. The El Dorado Community Foundation is a 501(c)3 local non-profit organization. Over the past several years this event has raised over $20,000 for non-profit organizations including The Upper Room, Boys and Girls Club, New Beginnings, Court Appointed Child Advocates (CASA), and the Ponderosa High School Band.
Due to the nature of this event and the planned activities, a Temporary Use Permit (TUP) is required. The total estimated fees for this TUP are $1,303, including $496 for Planning fees, $86 for Environmental Management Department fees, and $721 for Department of Transportation fees (Attachment B). The Planning and Building Department, with concurrence of the Chief Administrative Office, is recommending the Board consider waiving the TUP fees in the amount of $1,303, as this event will provide a substantial public benefit (Attachment D).
ALTERNATIVES
The Board may choose not to approve this fee waiver request.
