SUMMARY
In 1997 the City Council approved a Sublease with Live Nation, Inc. (formerly Universal Concerts) that established a process whereby ticket sales proceeds at the Sleep Train (formerly Coors/Cricket) amphitheater would be paid to the City and utilized for a Performing and Visual Arts Fund. This fund is to be used for arts grants to the Chula Vista community for the purpose of promoting and stimulating the growth of performing and visual arts within the City of Chula Vista. This year, the Chula Vista Library, who manages the grant process, received $76,352 from Live Nation for their 2015 Concert Series.
As called for in the sublease, a Performing and Visual Arts Task Force was established to make recommendations to the City Council regarding the grant awards. The task force is assisted by the Library Department, which formally conducts the grant application process. The Task Force has reviewed the Fiscal Year 2016-2017 applications and makes the following recommendations to the City Council.
