BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The Department operates and maintains eight regional parks, including this Park in the City of Chino, and provides for the rental of park property through Board approved fees. The recommended Permit between the Department and the Permittee allows for a portion of the Park to host the Country Campout Event on October 12 through 15, 2023, whereby the Department will receive a minimum revenue of $25,336.65.
The Permittee is dedicated to celebrating, supporting, and providing fun entertainment for the local community. People can camp or go for the day to enjoy a fun-filled entertainment festival. The Event is a four-day event with camping, food, and various vendors, and features an outdoor country concert with various artists. This is the first year the event will be held at a County facility, but the Permittee is interested in making this an annual event.
This recommended Permit aligns with the County and Chief Executive Officer’s goals and objectives to operate in a fiscally-responsible and business-like manner by allowing the Department to leverage its amenities and land to raise revenue to support park maintenance and development.
