Fiscal Note
This resolution authorizes a three (3) year agreement with the possibility of two (2) one-year renewals with Madison Ultimate Frisbee Association, Inc. (MUFA) at various City parks locations.

In addition, this Agreement will establish a segregated non-reverting account and a fee structure that supports the shared goals of supporting the volume use of the City’s park space and providing quality maintenance of the City’s athletic fields.
Over the potential five-year term of this agreement, it is anticipated that the MUFA will pay the City approximately $320,000 ($64,000 annually). Approximately $170,000 (80%) of this amount is for field use and reservation charges, which will be deposited as General Fund revenue. The remaining 20% will be credited to the Parks Division’s Operating Budget to offset extraordinary scheduling, planning and reservation work created under this agreement. The remaining $150,000 is the estimated value of a per player surcharge to be remitted by MUFA to the City for the maintenance, restoration, and improvement of specified fields; these expenditures will be handled through a special revenue fund.
