Fiscal Note
Two sets of potential cash flows are related to this Agreement. The first set is related to a licensing fee for using the City's name and logo. These revenues are projected at $18,034.63 in the first year of the agreement, followed by $9,017.31 in each of the second and third years (if the Agreement is extended beyond the first year). Total licensing fee revenues are therefore expected to total $36,069.25 over three years, which would accrue to the General Fund. The second set of potential cash flows is related to royalties. Royalties could range from $0.50 to $1.00 per month per enrolled property. At the $0.50 rate, revenues of $11,562 would be expected in 2013, followed by $25,455 in 2014 and $32,880 in 2015. The City, however, has the option to decline the royalty payments and pass the related savings directly to the citizens. In the proposed Agreement, the City would exercise this option and decline the royalty payments. Total revenues from this agreement would therefore be limited to the licensing fees, which are expected to total $36,069.25 over three years as noted above.
