Dear Ms. Schwartz:

Leonardo P Mendez. Esq.

Yesterday we appeared before the City Commission asking for
funds to help Mr. Kogan with the advertising and promotional
costs of the show. We also asked the Commission whether the
rental fees and costs of using the facility could be waived
by the City to enable to use more advertising and publicity
for the show.
The Commissioners response was to waive the cost of the rental
of the facility but only if the City would receive a 10$ share
of the gross proceeds or revenues generated by the show. Real-
izing that the proposal was not in our bests interests, specially
when we still had to pay for all other costs except the rental
- fee, we reappeared before the Commission and asked for the alter-
native of extending the time foz the payment of the rental fees
and expenses for the use of the facility to April lst, 1988. The
- Commission then agreed to give us that option. We did use the
revised figures which account for the additional two days and
the increase in the insurance costs.
Should you have any questions regarding any of the above, please
- do not hesitat to contact this office or Mr. Kogan directly.
