DISCUSSION: On September 9, 1996, the City Council approved a five -year agreement with Metro Display Advertising, Inc., to provide bus shelters in Newport Beach. The agreement is set to expire on August 31, 2001, unless it is extended. Metro Display Advertising was subsequently acquired by Eller Media Company in January 1998. Recently, their name was changed to Clear Channel Outdoor. The current agreement has a provision for extending the term for an additional five years. Clear Channel Outdoor has requested the extension in a letter attached as Exhibit A. Staff has had no complaints about the service provided by Eller Media Company. We have checked with nearby cities to compare the terms of the agreement. The provisions of Newport Beach's agreement equal or exceed those of other cities, especially in terms of per - shelter revenue. The City receives $5,000 per month for up to twenty-seven shelters. A list of the current shelter locations is attached as Exhibit B. Staff recommends that the existing agreement be extended with the same terms and provisions until August 31, 2006.
