2016-2018 PROPOSED MANAGEMENT CONTRACT AMENDMENT Salary Increase for Executive Director, Program Director, Operations Director

and Administrative Coordinator

Oakland Venue Management recommends a contract amendment to accommodate a salary increase to

$85,000 for the Executive Director, $80,000 for the Program Director and $75,000 for the Operations

Director of the Lake Merritt Uptown (LMUDA) and Downtown Oakland Associations (DOA). We haveconsulted a number of local BID/CBD organizations of comparable size (see below) and reviewed

compensation surveys for non-profits in Oakland (see Exhibit B) to arrive at our proposed salaries. These

proposed salaries remain at the low end of the surveyed responses, but begin to align the districts with

regional salary norms; it is recommended that the salary allocations for the positions be brought tomarket rate over the course of several years. To achieve this, it is recommended that we include a CPI-

linked cost-of-living increase going forward after 2016. Beyond the need to align the districts withregional industry standards, please consider that there has not been a significant increase to the cost of

the management contract since 2011 even as our experience and strength of relationships within thecommunity have grown. We have grown into our positions over the course of seven years and during that

time have become the face of the organizations and leaders in our field both locally and regionally.

It is also recommended that the supporting administrative role, currently compensated at an hourlywage of $17.50/hour be increased to $20.00/hour. This increase recognizes the current responsibilities

and demands of the role, which are integral to the day-to-day administrative and operational functions

of the organizations. This increase acknowledges the current local employment environment, which is

highly competitive for employers, and Oakland’s recently adopted minimum wage policy. We are alsorecommending that this becomes a full time position to accommodate the increasing administrative

responsibilities, and the additional marketing and media management required by district projects

generally.

For the first time since OVM took over the management role for both districts we are requesting that we

receive a management fee as part of our annual contract. As a company, dedicated to providing the

district with talented and well-managed embedded employees, we have begun to absorb additiona

costs that have made this contract one that costs our company money, and puts additional strain our HR

department. We are proposing that we adopt a more traditional property management business mode

that establishes a management fee based on the total budget that OVM manages on behalf of thedistricts. We are proposing a 1% management fee of all assessment and non-assessment revenues unde

our fiduciary oversight. This fee will be used to help offset our costs in the following ways:

Accounting:  A portion of this line item will cover an accountant and or bookkeeper to perform

accounting functions such as billing, QuickBooks and accounts maintenance, etc.

Human Resources:  This will cover costs related our in house staff that oversee and support all

HR related functions.

Parking/Travel:  Costs to commute to and from district specific events and meetings, etc.

Profit:  As a company we need to generate a modest level of income to cover reasonable legal,

accounting and professional services related to the operation of this contract.

If the contract amendment allowing compensation adjustment is approved, it is recommended that the

monies be drawn from the Organization budget category, specifically the Staff and Personnel line item,

with the exception of the District Horticulturalist, which is a SOBO specific cost. As the 2016 operating

budget is developed (to be reviewed at the January 2016 Joint Organization Committee Meeting andapproved at the January Joint Board meeting) the salary line items will reflect the new billing rates

without disrupting overall expenditure within each category beginning in 2016.

Board of Directors

Downtown Oakland Association and Lake Merritt/Uptown Association

Re: Recommendation to Waive Three Year Bidding Requirement for Oakland Venue Management

Dear Board Members:

The Bidding Policy and Procedures for the Downtown Oakland and Lake Merritt/Upton Associations

require that Major Contracts be put to bid every three years. The contract with Oakland Venue

Management (OVM) for District Management Services is a Major Contract which expired on December

31, 2014. The Bidding Policy and Procedures provide that existing contracts may be extended beyond the

three year limit with Board approval, and that such Board approval must be accompanied by a written

 justification for the extension.

I am recommending that the Boards approve a one year extension of the OVM contract. I have been a

Board Member and Co-Chair of the SOBO Committee for DOA since the inception of the districts in

2008. In this role I have worked closely with Steve Snider and Andrew Jones from day one (at that time

in their roles with New City America) in the selection of the Safety and Cleaning ambassador service providers and implementation of those programs in downtown and uptown Oakland. While our program

was not the first CBD/BID in Oakland it was the first of its size, scale and ambition. As such we were

 plowing new ground, if you will, particularly with respect to partnering with the City of Oakland in the

areas of effective interface with OPD and Public Works. In the past six years a tremendous amount of

effort, passion and skill on the part of the OVM team (Steve Snider, Andrew Jones, Tori Decker, and

Fiona Simms) has been poured into implementing the vision of our CBD’s. The results are remarkable.

OVM staff has built deep and credible relationships with all relevant departments within the City of

Oakland. In spite of the shifting sands of staff reductions and frequent personnel reassignment within the

Oakland Police Department and other City departments OVM staff has established a great level of

credibility and trust with those groups. I feel there is synergy in the interactions with the City where

initially there was tension, if not friction. This is a credit to the relationship building skills and focus of

the OVM team, and their relentless desire to make the City of Oakland, starting with our districts, a better place to work, live, and visit.

I feel that this group, OVM staff, does an outstanding job of stretching the budgets of the CBD’s, getting

a great bang for our buck. They accomplish this through tireless (or should I say tiring?) work, great

 passion and a collective skillset that is quite broad for just four people. We have seen those skillsets

develop over the past six years as they, and we as board members, have created the strong foundation that

is in place today.

I feel, without reservation, that the Board should extend the OVM contract through 2015. We are

currently transitioning our Safety/Cleaning programs to a single service provider, Block by Block. OVM

is best equipped to see this implementation through successfully. They possess a thorough yet nuanced

understanding of the needs of the districts and stakeholders. By extending the OVM contract for oneyear we can best leverage the many relationships and programs in place to take the districts to yet a

higher level in 2015.

Sincerely,

Martin Ward
