Julian Alaphilippe AGENDA ITEM NO. 10.3 CITY OF ELK GROVE CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT AGENDA TITLE: Receive Information and Provide Direction on Host City Consideration for the 2017 Amgen Tour of California MEETING DATE: September 28, 2016 PREPARED BY: Kristyn Nelson, Public Affairs Manager DEPARTMENT HEAD: Andrew Keys, Interim Deputy City Manager RECOMMENDED ACTION: Receive information on the benefits, requirements, and fiscal obligations associated with hosting a Stage Start and provide direction to staff regarding the opportunity to become a host city for the 2017 Amgen Tour of California. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Amgen Tour of California (ATOC) is the largest annual spectator sporting event in California and the largest cycling event in North America. It is a Tour de France-style cycling road race that was launched in 2006 and is presented annually each spring by AEG, one of the leading sports and entertainment presenters in the world. The race challenges the world’s top professional cycling teams to compete along a demanding course that traverses hundreds of miles of California’s iconic highways, byways and coastlines. The teams chosen to participate have included Olympic medalists, Tour de France contenders, and World Champions. In 2016, the Tour consisted of a world-class field of male and female riders representing 33 countries. A recap of the 2016 ATOC is included as Attachment 1. Key metrics for the 2016 ATOC are provided as Attachment 2. 1 Elk Grove City Council September 28, 2016 Page 2 of 3 City staff inquired with AEG about host city requirements last March. Public Affairs and Economic Development staff members were invited to attend the 2016 ATOC Time Trials in Folsom on May 20 to observe the event first-hand. On July 8, AEG asked all prospective host cities to submit a letter of interest. A letter of interest was submitted by the City Manager on July 28, 2016. AEG contacted staff on August 16 to tentatively propose a Stage Start opportunity in Elk Grove for the Women’s Race on May 13, 2017. The attached Host City Benefits and Opportunities Sheet (Attachment 3) was provided for the City’s consideration to evaluate the potential benefits and identify the various logistical and fiscal needs to accommodate a Stage Start. The ATOC has previously included the cities of Sacramento, Lodi, Davis, and Folsom among its host cities in our region. In 2016, 14 cities or destination locations were selected as Stage Start or Stage Finish hosts. Less than 3% of the state’s 482 incorporated cities are selected annually for the Tour. To be selected places a city in rare company and offers unique opportunities for statewide, national and international exposure through ATOC media channels, effectively raising the City’s economic development profile. Hosting an ATOC event is consistent with the Council’s goal to “Distinguish Elk Grove as a city with an array of opportunities for sports and cultural activities for residents of all ages and backgrounds, with venues that also promote and leverage economic growth.” It also aligns with the Council’s “Join the Movement” health and fitness campaign that encourages residents of all ages to engage in activities that support a healthy lifestyle. The host city commitment is substantial; however, it is structured to be attainable by well-organized creative communities and those with strong corporate partners. Should the Council wish to proceed forward, the City will form a Local Organizing Committee (LOC) to assist with the planning and implementation of the Stage Start Host City requirements. Opportunities to enlist corporate sponsors and other partners to offset the City’s investment are possible, working in conjunction with AEG. Initial inquiries with Visit Elk Grove (VEG) to satisfy ATOC hospitality requirements have already begun, with VEG indicating their interest to partner with the City on this event. 2 Elk Grove City Council September 28, 2016 Page 3 of 3 Next Steps • Receive direction from Council and provide our response to AEG; begin negotiation of appropriate agreements if directed by Council; and • Identify members and form Local Organizing Committee (LOC); and • LOC to work with AEG Race Director to identify Stage Start locations in Elk Grove that satisfy the ATOC Tour requirements and fulfill City marketing/branding objectives for a women’s race start on May 13, 2017; and • Attend ATOC orientations and trainings as needed. FISCAL IMPACT: City staff has used the City Benefits and Opportunities Sheet supplied by AEG to generate the attached cost estimate summary (Attachment 4). The cost to perform host city obligations is estimated at $90,000 in combined cash or equivalent donations and in-kind services. Funds allocated to economic development within the approved FY 2016-17 Budget are sufficient to support the project. Potential offsetting revenue sources or defrayed expenses may be available through event sponsorships and partnerships with VEG and/or similar organizations.

  • Van Avermaet, Gerrans, Matthews, Wellens and Degenkolb Headline an Impressive Field at the Grands Prix Cyclistes De Québec Et De Montréal 2018
    PRESS RELEASE| For immediate release Van Avermaet, Gerrans, Matthews, Wellens and Degenkolb headline an impressive field at the Grands Prix Cyclistes de Québec et de Montréal 2018 Montréal, August 23, 2018 – Now in their ninth editions, the Grand Prix Cyclistes de Québec et Montréal (GPCQM) are once again asserting their impressive pedigree on the UCI WorldTour calendar, the top tier of international road cycling. The challenging courses, deep field of competitors with a large number of titles won, suspense-filled racing, quality of organization, and the friendly hospitality of Québec have made these races choice stops on the tour that all riders aspire to win. With just two weeks to go before race weekend, the 18 UCI WorldTeams and three wild-card teams (Israel Cycling Academy, Rally Cycling and Team Canada) have announced which riders they are sending to the races, and once again this year each has entered a squad of first-rate competitors well suited to the spectacular parcours in Québec City (sept. 7) and Montréal (sept. 9). The peloton of 147 riders, representing 28 countries, includes skilled road warriors like Greg Van Avermaet (BMC Racing Team), the reigning Olympic Champion, who also held the Yellow Jersey for eight days at this year’s Tour de France, won the Montréal GP in 2016, and has been on the podium in Québec City four times since 2012. “I love these two races; every year they’re among my main end-of-season challenges,” says the Classics specialist from Belgium, who will face tough opposition from several riders who are well versed in the traps of both city courses.

  • NEBRASKA LEDGER • 2020 Focused on Thefuture
    NEBRASKA LEDGER • 2020 Focused on theFuture As this issue of The Nebraska Ledger was being created, the spread of COVID-19 continued in the U.S. and started a time of unprecedented change at the University of Nebraska. In order to be proactive, classes were suspended March 16-20 and students were encouraged to return home as our faculty began preparing for online delivery of courses. While our accounting students left, they needed technology and internet service sufficient for online learning at home. When faculty and staff started working from home, seemingly overnight, it was necessary for communications – from department meetings to office hours – to be held via Zoom. As many of us quickly transitioned our courses in Canvas and utilized tools like VidGrid and YellowDig. We also struggled for internet bandwidth because our own children were taking remote courses. Through hard work and resilience, our faculty used their expertise and talents to start teaching remotely on March 30. As a department, we held daily Zoom meetings to connect with each other or commiserate and share best practices. Because they believe in the power of every person, they also connect with students through phone calls and remote office hours. We appreciate our students for stepping up to this challenge alongside us. These same qualities, strengths and effort are used by our SOA community in the stories inside this Nebraska Ledger.
