Warshaw City Manager DATE : June 9, 1998 FILE: SUBJECT: Ordinance to Amend the Rates at the Orange Bowl Stadium for REFERENCES: High School Football Games ENCLOSURES: RECOMMENDATION It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached -Ordinance amending Section 53-131(B)(b)(c) of the Code of the City of Miami, as amended, entitled "Admission Tax and Minimum Charges," pertaining to rental fees at the Orange Bowl Stadium. BACKGROUND Several Dade County High Schools have contacted the Orange Bowl Stadium to hold their playoff games and/or other football games where the estimated attendance is more than 20,000. The Orange Bowl Stadium is ideally suited for these events due to its location and capacity. The High Schools, however, find the current rental rate prohibitive for their games. The Department of Conferences, Conventions & Public Facilities desires to attract High School games and recognizes that the admission price charged for these events cannot cover the cost of the stadium rental and operating expenses. For these reasons it is recommended that the rental fee be reduced. The High Schools will be responsible, as usual, for all game day expenses, the ticket surcharge and insurance requirements. The City of Miami will retain all net revenues from food and beverage concessions, and parking. ANALYSIS The Orange Bowl Stadium rental fee is currently the greater of $5,000 or 10% of gross tickets sales for the use of half the stadium, and $10,000 or 10% of gross ticket sales for the use of the entire stadium. The usual admission price for High School football games is between $5.00 and $10.00. The relatively inexpensive admission price does not produce sufficient revenues for High Schools to pay the operating expenses and the rental fee for the Orange Bowl Stadium. The Department of Conferences, Conventions & Public Facilities recommends that the rental rate for High School football games be established as $2,000, and believes that by reducing the rental fee for these football games we will book more events and increase revenues.

Abrams, Director E_-E E�cES Conferences, Conventions & Public Facilities ENCLOSURES: Your approval is requested to seek the City Commission's consent to amend City Code Section 53-131(B)(b)(c), which establishes rates charged for use of the Orange Bowl Stadium. Sev9ral Dade County High Schools have contacted the Orange Bowl Stadium regarding use of the Stadium for their playoff games and/or other football games at which attendance is anticipated to be in excess of 20,000. The Orange Bowl Stadium is the only City facility that can adequately accommodate this number of attendees. The Stadium's minimum rental rate is $5,000 or 10% of gross ticket sales, plus expenses and ticket surcharge. The relatively inexpensive admission price for high school games (between $5.00 and $10.00) does not produce sufficient revenues for them to pay the operating expenses and the rental fee for the Stadium. The Department of Conferences, Conventions and Public Facilities recommends that the rental rate for High School football games be established as $2,000, which would encourage greater usage of the facility by Miami -Dade County high schools, provide a service to the community, and generate additional revenues.
