People Serving <br />PeoFle <br /> <br />CITY OF RIVERSIDE <br /> <br />CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />Riverside <br /> <br />HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL <br /> <br />DATE: December 1, 1998 <br /> <br />ITEM NO: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: DEPARTMENT POLICY FOR SPONSORSHIPS OR PARTICIPATION IN <br /> COMMUNITY EVENTS <br /> <br />BACKGROUND: <br /> <br />Riverside Public Utilities' (RPUs') sponsorship guideline policy was established and approved by the <br />Board of Public Utilities in 1996. In consideration of future competition and in accordance with <br />implementing the marketing plan recommendations made by consultants Stone & Webster to "place <br />special emphasis on educating and advancing the utility-customer relationship," the Utility feels it <br />prudent to revise and expand the existing guidelines to move forward with its marketing effo. ds by: <br /> <br />1. Pursuing greater direct public contact opportunities to communicate RPU benefits and <br /> brand. <br />2. Developing a higher degree of visibility within the community through a grass-roots <br /> presence and involvement. <br />3. Educating the public on their Utility and the future impact of deregulation and competition. <br /> <br />A copy of the revised Community Event Participation and Sponsorship Policy is attached. <br /> <br />Sponsorships will be tracked and measured for each event to help determine effectiveness and future <br />sponsorship or event participation. Tracking will consist of collecting feedback from a variety of event <br />sources and community contacts who are connected with or participated in the event. Measuring will <br />include assessing the initial request, reviewing RPU's objectives and comparing the tracking information <br />with specific relevant and reasonable expectations. <br /> <br />It is expected that approximately $100,000 will be expended in the current fiscal year for sponsorships <br />and participation in community events. A report listing current and previous year event sponsorships <br />are also attached. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT: <br /> <br />Funds have already been included in the Marketing Services division budget for this purpose, so there <br />is no additional fiscal impact. <br /> <br />17-1 <br /> <br /> <br />
