PROPOSAL: The 2011 budget includes a total of$205,350 to be transferred to the Fayetteville Youth Center from the General Fund. A resolution of contractual services, as well as an ordinance to waive competitive bidding is required. The contract outlines the services the Fayetteville Youth Center is providing to the City and the citizens of Fayetteville. We are requesting a waiver of competitive bids to secure the continuity of services provided and because the Fayetteville Youth Center has adequately served our citizens since it was created. The agreement for 2011 is similar to the 2010 agreement. As stated before, each organization wants to offer two distinctly different programs to our citizens. Although each organization offers a variety of summer camps for our youth, staff from each organization works together to provide a variety of topics and elements that best suit our citizens' needs. In 2010, the agreement included for the Fayetteville Boys and Girls Club to provide transportation for the YRCC participants during the summer and/or school year for lunch, programs and time to spend enjoying the Club's facilities. This partnership was very beneficial for the YRCC participants. The City of Fayetteville has provided financial support for the Fayetteville Youth Center since 1967. In 1999, the Parks and Recreation Staff and the Youth Center Staff re-evaluated their operations to determine if each was meeting the needs of the Citizens of Fayetteville in the most efficient possible manner. The results of the meetings were the attached "Working Agreement" between Parks and Recreation and the Fayetteville Youth Center. It is the intent of both agencies to work together for the common good of the citizens by not providing public funding for multiple competing program offerings. If the Youth Center was not providing recreational services for our youth as well as citizens, the City of Fayetteville would need to assume the responsibility.
