E-7
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
VIA: DON PENMAN, INTERIM CITY MANAGER
FROM: JOE JACOBS, DIRECTOR OF RECREATION AND FAMILY SERVICES
DATE: SEPTEMBER 18, 2017
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO SOLICIT REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS TO PROVIDE
CATERING SERVICES AT THE AZUSA WOMAN’S CLUB
SUMMARY:
In 1999, the City of Azusa began to contract with an in-house, exclusive caterer for the Azusa
Woman’s Club. This was done due to no longer having City staff available to show the Azusa
Woman’s Club to interested renters, nor having Staff available for set-up, tear-down and clean up
purposes. This arrangement has proven to be successful. Due to the current expiration of the three
year contract plus two, one year extensions, it is now time to once again solicit Requests for
Proposals (RFP) for catering services at the Azusa Woman’s Club. The proposed action authorizes
Staff to solicit a RFP for professional hall rental/catering services for the Azusa Woman’s Club.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council take the following action:
1) Authorize Staff to solicit a Request for Proposals (RFP) for professional hall rental/catering
services for the Azusa Woman’s Club.
BACKGROUND:
The current facility license and event scheduling services agreement with the current caterer, the
Bashful Butler, will expire on November 30, 2017. The Bashful Butler, has been the designated
caterer since the inception of the current three year contract, commencing on December 1, 2012, and
ending on November 30, 2015. As per Section VI, under General Provisions, the contract was
extended an additional two years, and is scheduled to expire November 30, 2017. As this productive
and mutually beneficial agreement is coming to a close, it is now time to put a new three year
contract into place. Staff is seeking authorization to solicit a RFP.

FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended actions. However, the revenue return to
the City in this collaborative agreement, as well as the custodianship of the facility, is critical to the
success and daily operation of the Azusa Woman’s Club facility.
