Page 2 of 4 <br /> line. Use that for the regular Tuesday Music -ib- the -Parks program. As I stated last night, we can <br /> also use $350 from the parks program line to support the Jam. We did not budget for the Jam in <br /> 2012. Next year we can move that or the right amount from the Parks Programs line to the Music - <br /> in- the -Parks line. <br /> If you can not make that budget work, then we will want to re -look at our planned <br /> expenditures. We are early in the budget year and the Fete des Lacs is the only City wide event <br /> so we can make. <br /> You will recall that we used to use the Parks Program line for a YMCA summer program at <br /> LaMotte. We were not getting good return on that expenditure, so we are not doing that <br /> anymore. <br /> Pat <br /> On Mar 20, 2012, at 9:36 AM, Tom Lee wrote: <br /> Greetings all, <br /> The ASCAP fee is required if "cover" songs will be played. If ONLY original music <br /> or music that is in the public domain was performed, the city would not have to <br /> pay this fee. <br /> However, since it is likely that most of these acts will perform at least some <br /> copyrighted music, it is ethically responsible to pay the ASCAP fee. Some venues <br /> require only original or public domain music to be performed to avoid this fee, <br /> while others simply ignore the ASCAP all together. I have heard of venues <br /> successfully argue that as they were not profiting from the musical performance, <br /> they felt no obligation to pay the fee. I think that this is where ethics come into <br /> play. <br /> As a musician, I feel it is important to acknowledge the intellectual property of my <br /> fellow musicians and applaud the city in doing their "due diligence ". <br /> Thomas A.

The $320.00 is to the American Society of <br /> Composers and is for copyright related information as it relates to music. As a <br /> staff, we went through our due diligence to see if it was necessary to pay and <br /> concluded there was no way around it because of the City sponsored Music in the <br /> Park activities. Attached is the background information for your review. <br /> Please let me know if you have any further questions, <br /> Mike <br /> From: Patrick Branch [mailto:pbranch @cox.net] <br /> Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2012 12:47 AM <br /> To: Tom Lee <br /> Cc: Michael Jeziorski; Teresa Bender; John Grahek <br /> Subject: Re: budget? <br /> 3/21/2012 <br />
