SUMMARY
The City of Chula Vista is collaborating with local agencies and volunteers to hold the City-sponsored 2016 Starlight Parade. The event continues to grow in popularity and generates positive publicity and awareness for the City of Chula Vista and our historic Third Avenue. The event attracts more than 25,000 people to Third Avenue and promotes community engagement and fosters civic pride.

The attached resolution supports approval of a $15,000 agreement with McFarlane Promotions to coordinate the 2016 Starlight Parade.
