AGENDA ITEM: G
MEETING DATE: March 7, 2012
ITEM:
Service Agreement with Dixon Dance Academy to Provide Dance Instruction at the Centre
($32,760)
OBJECTIVE:
Provide high-quality dance classes for Elgin residents.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the service agreement with Dixon Dance Academy to provide dance instruction at The
Centre from January 2012 through December 2012 in the amount of$32,760.
BACKGROUND
The Centre currently has a yearly independent contractor service agreement with Dixon Dance
Academy. Dixon Dance has been the service provider for dance instruction at The Centre since
opening in November 2002. Dixon Dance provides class instruction in ballet, tap, jazz and hip
hop for participants ages 3 through adult. As well as instruction, Dixon Dance will provide
direction and choreography of the annual dance recital held at the Hemmens Cultural Center.
Dixon Dance currently instructs 70 classes per year serving about 670 students. Due to the fact
that their compensation may exceed the $20,000 procurement threshold, city council approval
is being sought to enter into this agreement.
Dixon Dance Academy will be paid 65 percent of class resident fees per participant per class.
The city will receive 35 percent of the fees collected per participant per class.
OPERATIONAL ANALYSIS
The contractual agreement proposed with Dixon Dance Academy provides a cost effective
partnership with a private sector business that is an expert in the field of dance instruction. The
instruction provided is at a high standard from experienced instructors with flexible schedules,
which is a benefit to the customers at The Centre.
During the term of the agreement, Dixon Dance Academy must maintain insurance coverage of
$1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and $1,000,000 per occurrence for property
damage and name the city of Elgin as an additional insured. Copies of the service agreement,
which have been drafted by the legal department, are attached.
INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED
None.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
It is estimated that revenues of $50,400 will be received from individuals registering for dance
classes provided by this contractor. The estimated contractor fee for performing these services
is $32,760. The remaining revenues of$17,640 will be used to offset direct program costs, such
as administrative salaries and marketing and will partially offset indirect program costs such as
facility maintenance.
