Mr. Buck stated~that the question had been raised aS to whether local nOn-profit performing arts groups could have access, to and have performance time subsidized at auditoriums other than Charlottesville High School, as the high school appears to have reached its limit for use. Mr. Buck stated that he would favor encouraging use of others areas, though he understood that some of the auditoriums are used for classes. Mr. Buck also noted that he understood that because of the high demand for the space, very little remains of the funds, appropriated by the City for the performance subsidy, and additional funding may need to be approved if Council wished to expand the program. Mr. Jim Dunbar, Assistant Superintendent of Schools, stated that he has been researching ~the matter to determine the original intent of Council and_ the School Board with regard to the subsidy and use of various school auditoriums. Ms. Waters stated that she would favor allowing cOmmunity arts groups to use space in the schools if the spaces are vacant~ Mr. Dunbar stated that someone would need to supervise use of the equipment at the schools, as is done at CHS, which would increase the cost for use of the faCility. It was agreed that the School Board and Council would wait for a staff report before taking further action.
