MOTION:
I move that Council direct Public Works to waive the City’s $1,150 fee for using the Riverfront Park Amphitheater on August 21, 2021, for the Salem Capitol Pride event.
DISCUSSION:
Salem Capital Pride has applied for a permit to conduct an event at the Riverfront Park Amphitheater on August 21, 2021. Under the Council-adopted 2021-2022 Master Fee Schedule, this activity is classified as a commercial event with sales. The fee for this type of event is $1,150 per day. Capitol Pride organizers have requested the City waive this fee. Public Works is requesting Council direction on the matter. Note that only facility use fees may be waived; other event-related fees, such as fees for application/processing, sound permits, and irrigation locates are not waivable.
