Commission approves first-annual 'Signal Fest' at Mercedes Dome Park; city to provide public-safety resources
Summary
The City approved hosting a proposed 'Signal Fest' at the Dome Park. Organizers will handle entertainment while the city will provide EMS, police, fire and fencing; no upfront city payment was expected and some ticket/parking revenue could return to the city.
Armando Aguilar, director of parks, briefed the commission on a proposal to host a first-annual Signal Fest at the Dome Park. Organizers would manage entertainment and production; the city would provide on-site resources (EMS, police, fire and fencing) and could recover costs through ticket or parking revenue sharing.
Aguilar said the event operators would not require city cash upfront but the city would provide logistics and public-safety support similar to other municipal events. Commissioners moved to approve the proposal; the motion passed by voice vote.
