Both individuals speaking spoke during the agenda item.
Bob Hicks —245 Rio Vista Dr. spoke to the council on the Cibolofest. He thought it irresponsible for the
council to hand Cibolofest over to an organization Cibolo Community Advancement Network (CCAN) that
was not in good standing with the State of Texas. Mr. Hicks also stated that at last year's Pumpkin Patch a
sign was put up by CCAN stating go to the Utility window to pay for your pumpkin. Mr. Hicks stated this
was also a violation of the penal code. Mr.Hicks also stated that CCAN disregarded their own charter which
states that all checks issued by the organization shall require two signatures, one of those signatures being
the treasurer. Checks have been issued with one signature and not the treasurer.Mr.Hicks also stated that he
felt that the Mayor being a member of the Board of Directors of CCAN was a conflict of interest.
Brent Hartman — 136 Earhart Lane spoke to council on behalf of CCAN as he had been involved in the
Overall Operation Organization of Cibolofest for the past 3 years. Mr. Hartman did address the issue
brought up by Mr. Hicks of the status of CCAN with the State and wanted 48 hours to get the proper
1
paperwork to council on this issue. Mr. Hartman went over the historically data on Cibolofest, how it got
started, volunteers and support from Parks and staff. He indicated that CCAN had approximately $3,500
invested in pop-up tents, electrical equipment, cash handling and ticket supplies. Mr. Hartman stated that
CCAN has provided roughly$4,000 in funding equipment promoting youth sports. Mr. Hartman stated that
they had entered into agreements and contracts for the weekend of October 23rd based upon verbal
conversations with staff and CCAN understood that date was reserved at the new multi-event facility.
