The Shakopee School District has exclusive use of the boy's and girl's locker rooms and the boy's and girl's coaches rooms at the Shakopee Ice Arena during the "Hockey Season", and then the spaces are turned over to the City during the "Off-Season".  Per the agreement with the School District, the City may allow other groups to use these spaces outside of the "Hockey Season" with permission of the District.

Advantage Sports Groups co-owner, Calvin Simon, also works for the school district as the High School Boys Hockey Coach and uses these spaces during the "Hockey Season".  This rental agreement's approriate fee structure and transparent communication of space use in different roles as public employee during hockey season and private business person in the off-season.  Thus avoiding any misperceptions of impropriety of using public spaces for personal profit or gain.

Advantage Sports Group has asked to rent to spaces at the Shakopee Ice Arena.  The Boy's Coaches Room (183.75 square feet for $139.65/month), and the Boy's Locker Room (1,228.25 square feet for $933.47/month).  Should they also require the Girl's Coaches and/or Locker Room(s) then similar fees could be added.

Rental of these spaces would increase off-season revenues by $1,037.12 in the first year (2023) and that would increase by 3% each year for a 5 year term.

Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Council approve the Coaches and Locker Room Rental Agreement with Advantage Sports Group.
