Christine,
The Porchfest Grant Agreement is completely separate from the Arts Grant Agreements. Further,the
Porchfest agreement was drafted by our office; it is a legally sound document(I have stamped the
agreement and given it to Connie). Josh Kirsh's position as president of Porchfest is voluntary; as such
he personally derives no pecuniary gain from the City's grant to Porchfest, and therefore does not need
to file a conflict of interest statement. Please let me know if you have any further questions on this
matter.
Thank you,
Jon

Hi Nancy

The "arts agreement" is not the same as the arts agreements given yearly by the mayor under the arts
grant fund account. First, many terms and conditions were taken out including language that disallowed
city employees from forming their own LLC and serving as LLC president thus being both employed by
city and receiving funds as a consultant from money from the gift fund. In addition,this Porchfest"arts
grant agreement" is being fully funded by festival and gift fund general account and not the traditional
mayoral awarded funds from the "support for the arts grant" line item. I asked legal to review the type
of agreement because we are setting a precedent with this personnel arrangement. I also asked if Josh
Kirsh,the LLC president, must file a conflict of interest document with the City. Just because a contract
is approved by BPW under the Mayor's board, does not dictate the automatic approval of the claim by
my office. The supporting paperwork from your office for the claim did not include the attorney stamp
on contract. It was only after this review was it determined the Porchfest arts grant agreement while
looking like all the other Arts grant agreements,was in fact not and further questions arose. I sent the
request to legal on August 25, 2018 with a request it be expedited.
The questions remain and I hope to officially hear back from counsel with a response to my
questions. Once received,we can move forward.Thank you.
Best regards,
Christine

Christine,
I just got off the phone with Jon Oberlander and he will be bringing you the
stamped agreement for Porchfest first thing in the morning.
I didn't know that you had pulled the claim until Sharon let me know last
week.As I understand it,you seemed to have some issue with the agreement.
However, it was approved by the BPW at the August 15th meeting and the
claim should have then been processed at the special claims meeting on
August 29th. This would have allowed plenty of time for the city to issue a
check to Porchfest to place in their account to pay for expenses related to the
event.
The problem that your pulling the claim has presented, is that the event is
this weekend, Sunday, September 16th and payments need to be made and
the organizers do not have funds in their account to do so.
Is there any way to expedite the check this week?
