SUBJECT: Taste of Oak Brook Sponsorship Agreement
FROM: Riccardo F. Ginex, Village Manager
BUDGET SOURCE/BUDGET IMPACT: #816-79400
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Motion to Approve Resolution 2018-AG-MCD-
TASTE-FRWRKS-R-1701, a Resolution Approving a Sponsorship Agreement Between
the McDonalds Corporation and the Village Of Oak Brook for McDonalds Corporation to
Sponsor the Independence Day and Taste of Oak Brook Fireworks Show.
Background/History:
Every year the McDonald’s Corporation co-sponsors the Village’s Annual Taste of Oak
Brook event by making a generous donation to the Village of Oak Brook. Without this
donation, this event would not be able to take place.
McDonalds will not have an on-sight presence at the Taste of Oak Brook again this year.
The sponsorship agreement attached is the same agreement as in the past, just updated to
reflect the changes in the year.
McDonald’s generous donation is a large reason and essential for the success of the Taste
of Oak Brook event.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Village Board approve Resolution R-1701, approving the
Sponsorship Agreement between the Village of Oak Brook and McDonald’s Corporation
for Taste of Oak Brook/Independence Day Fireworks Event.
