13-121 - City of Sunnyvale - State of California

RFP No. F0610-34 – Sunnyvale Swim Complex, FremontHigh School
Page 5
In order to properly account for each of our 8 locations income and expenses – particularly
those involving City contracts, we have divided each of the operations into separate
divisions or departments, all of which should be able to operate independently of each other.
Annual budgets are developed each November and signed off in December for the next
fiscal year. Our 6 year business plan summary (RFP Attachment B) outlines the general
income and expense reporting requested. Our annual budgets are developed and signed off
by Site Manager(s), and the Directors (Principals.) The results or ‘actuals’ are then
reviewed monthly and more extensively each quarter and annually. These private and
confidential actual reports for the Sunnyvale Swim Complex are available upon request.
Annual budgeting includes plans for funding new equipment, furniture, and capital
expenditures as needed. As a company, we also maintain a reserve to provide emergency
funds toward capital expenditures for unplanned expenses.
CSC also maintains a business license with the City of Sunnyvale and has been a member of
the Sunnyvale Chamber of Commerce since beginning operations here in the summer of
2002.
In order to address part of RFP section VI, we would add here that there is no issue
with our credit or financial standings. Neither CSC, nor its Principals, have ever been
involved in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, or been subject to assignment for the
benefit of creditors. We are not now, nor have we ever been in the past 25 years involved in
any litigation. A letter of reference from our bank, Comerica, and copies of filed federal tax
returns for the past three years are available upon request. Our CPA and CFO would be
involved in providing any additional confidential financial documentation requested.
7. Additional information - Why choose California Sports Center. As mentioned above,
California Sports Center has been the operator of this facility since its official opening in
June of 2002. The contract was signed on June 1 of that year, and we were ready for a
public ceremony and “open swim” by June 22 and began full operations on July 8, 2002.
Within a very short time we hired staff, prepared the facility, purchased equipment and
supplies, finalized and ordered registration forms, and completed so many other unnamed
things. We have since been renewed a second contract which takes us to this process. With
excellence in mind, we have taken the operation of this pool to new levels of service
meeting and exceeding all the requirements of the contract. We have properly and
professionally represented the City of Sunnyvale to the best of our ability and believe that
our background, knowledge, understanding, and now direct experience in the operation of
this pool in this community is vitally important to its on-going success. Areas we feel
extremely proud of in our operations the past 11 years include:
a. Safety. Most important to CSC is that Safety is #1. We do not hesitate to address
safety concerns humbly, but feel extremely confident with our safety record. This
will be further addressed in section “B. Proposed Swim Program and Services” of
the RFP.
b. We have been instrumental in continuing the on-going regular communications
between the school district,\ and the City as well as contractors hired by either to
maintain facilities as needed. We developed the minutes/notes sharing responsibility
with district staff, and City staff and continue to meet regularly. Notes are now
maintained by the City.
