Approve the 2009-10 Grants-in-Aid(GIA) allocations in the amount of$89,680; and 2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the individual agreements with each grant recipient. DISCUSSION Background In February of each year, the PCC begins its annual GIA process. Notices are placed in the Tribune and on the City website to advertise the availability of the grant funding for local non-profit organizations. The grant funding is made available for the promotion of cultural; social; and recreational events that will benefit residents and visitors alike and provide an additional opportunity for tourism promotion. This year, the establishment of the Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID) and the City's current fiscal constraints allowed the PCC to take a close look at all its programs and evaluate improvements, cost savings, and synergies between the programs. The PCC felt that this also offered an opportunity to look closely at the GIA program to see whether funding should be changed and whether the program could be improved to the mutual benefit of the City and the grant recipients. In its annual retreat, the PCC asked its GIA subcommittee to convene and prepare a recommendation to the committee regarding possible changes to the GIA program. The subcommittee subsequently met on February 2, 2009 and developed a tiered approach to possible funding. The committee felt that there is a large spectrum of applicants with various needs and possibilities for collaboration on various levels. They felt that the program should reflect the vast variety and define concrete value proposition for the different grant requests and dollar amounts allocated. At its February 11, 2009 the PCC approved the recommended approach (Attachment 1 — PCC Minutes) and asked staff to place a request for approval of conceptual funding and the new criteria on the Council agenda in order to open the grant process. On March 3, 2009 Council gave approval to start the grant process with a conceptual budget of$100,000. Grant Application and Evaluation process The grant cycle was opened on March 6, 2009 and applications were due on April 14, 2009. By the deadline, 36 applications were received with a funding request of$240,000. This compares to 24 applications received in 2008-09, requesting grants in a total amount of $113,881 and 37 applications received in 2007-08 requesting$141,813. Council Agenda Report—2009-11 Grants-in-Aid Cycle Promotional Coordinating Committee At the same time, it became clear that the grant amount would have to be adjusted in order to help the City balance its budget. However, considering the need of the recipients and the program benefits to the City's residents and visitors, staff considered cutting this program last, but ultimately had to recommend a 10% cut to $90,000. Given the constraints, the PCC called a mandatory meeting with all potential applicants to convey the new criteria and the financial uncertainty this year's grant cycle was exposed to. Review Process and Recommendation It was under this purview that the PCC convened its GIA subcommittee to review the applications to formulate preliminary grant recommendations. The GIA subcommittee met two times(April 30th and May 71h) to review the applications and evaluate each by using the assessment criteria approved by Council. The subcommittee read every application carefully to evaluate the requests and reach its conclusion. They discussed and debated each one to make certain that they applied the criteria consistently and evaluated the benefit to the City and its residents, as well as the applicants. The subcommittee's preliminary recommendations were then presented to the entire PCC at its regular monthly meeting on May 13`h, 2009. During the meeting, the PCC discussed each applicant and approved the subcommittee's preliminary recommendations with one change to San Luis Obispo ALPHA, Inc. They determined that the regular June meeting would be used to present the preliminary recommendations to the applicants and finalize the recommendations to Council. The minutes of the meeting(Attachment 2—PCC Minutes)containing the preliminary recommendations and notice of the meeting were then mailed to all grant applicants. With this year's recommendations, the PCC continued with last year's approach to the GIA process, with one"eye"on rebalancing allocations between cultural and tourism interests to bring greater strength to tourism events, which have traditionally received the smaller proportion of GIA allocations. The"second eye"was on assuring that proposed events had sufficient direct benefits to San Luis Obispo residents through events being held in the City of San Luis Obispo. This resulted in 48%of the recommended grant funding being allocated to events promoting tourism to San Luis Obispo. This compares to 36%in 2007-08 and 58%in 2008-09 of grant funding. In the case of the International Film Festival, which received the highest amount of grant funding, the PCC wanted to acknowledge the organization's consistent efforts in growing the event and attracting more and more visitors to San Luis Obispo. However,they also wanted to support the festival's efforts in attracting directors and producers to San Luis Obispo as a viable place for the film industry. Funding Recommendations The meeting for applicants with the PCC was held on June 10th, 2009, to formally present the Committee's 2009-10 GIA preliminary recommendations to the applicants. During the meeting, all applicants were given an opportunity to address the PCC regarding the recommendations. Representatives from twelve organizations were present to mostly express their appreciation for the grant funding and thank the PCC and Council for the ongoing support. One organization, however, came to clarify the purpose of its event and why the City's contribution was so essential. They urged the PCC to consider funding at any level in order to make the event possible. The committee Do fit '� I i Council Agenda Report—2009-11 Grants-in-Aid Cycle Promotional Coordinating Committee had originally denied funding to the Downtown Association's Farmers' Market celebration for Veterans in November 2009. The PCC considered the Downtown Association's feedback and subsequently change its recommendation to allocate $2,000 towards the promotion of the event (Attachment 3—Draft PCC Meeting Minutes). The following summarizes the PCC's 2009-10 final grant recommendations. Given the amount of grant funding available and the grant requests received,the PCC had to make certain decisions regarding funding allocations upfront in order to most equally distribute the money available: 1. Total funding available is $90,000. 2. Total funding recommended is$89,680(Attachment 4—Funding Recommendation) 3. Funding is provided to 30 organizations,with grants ranging from $1,000 to$9,000.. 4. Organizations not present at the mandatory meeting were not considered for funding. 5. The committee concentrated on the advertising budgets within the request to help organizations promote their events. 6. Whenever possible, the committee encouraged collaboration between the organizations and joint-promotion. (i.e. Writers' Conference and Foundation for Public Libraries). 7. The committee concentrated on allocations towards marketing, promotion, and outreach as fundable components. In order to keep funding decisions consistent throughout, a minor amount of$320 remained in the budget. The subcommittee chair, as well as the PCC chair will be available to Council at the public hearing to respond to questions. Contracts Upon Council adoption of grant recommendations,the City will enter into contracts with each of the recipient organizations. Contracts will be monitored throughout the year by the PCC by assigning individual members as liaisons to the various applicants. In order to apply for future year funding, the organizations have to hand in a final report on the event and provide proof of City recognition on marketing material. FISCAL IMPACT The 2009-10 budget for the PCC GIA Program, approved as part of the 2009-11 Financial Plan was $90,000. The PCC is recommending allocation of$89,680 in grant funding. ATTACffiMENTS 1.

GRANTS-IN-AID SUBCOMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS AND SPECIAL MEETING SCHEDULE The committee considered the subcommittee's recommendation for grant funding in 2009-10 and discussed each applicant. The subcommittee chair, Cathie Babb, started the discussion by giving an overview on the subcommittee's evaluation process, prelimina,7 thinking and budget allocation. The subcommittee had met twice, on April 30th and again on May 7t . Given the financial constraints and the overwhelming number of grant requests, the subcommittee decided to exclude the organizations that did not come to the mandatory meeting. They then studied the nature of each request, substantiated the tier and itemization of the request. In order to stay within budget, the subcommittee decided to concentrate on helping the organizations with outreach by allocating funding for advertising. Staff was asked to follow-up on a couple of events to make certain that they take place within the City. For the 2010-11 funding cycle, the committee asked for stronger language regarding the funding sources under application item no. 5 and the request for media plans. They want the application to stipulate that funding in the future will be denied if any components of the application are missing, incorrectly submitted, or unclear. The following funding was allocated preliminarily. The funding will be finalized after the meeting with the applicants. The committee decided to postpone that meeting from May 27th to June 10th in order to gain a clear picture regarding the available funding. The City Council will consider this program's funding on June 4, 2009.

GRANTS-IN-AID ALLOCATIONS FOR 2009-10 — REVIEW WITH APPLICANTS Cate Norton thanked the representatives of the organizations present for their commitment to the community and their hard work every year. She explained that each applicant would be given the possibility to address the committee regarding the current recommendations for funding. She then started the meeting by calling out each organization. Most representatives addressed the committee and voiced their gratitude for the allocation. They all understood the difficult financial situation of the City and were very appreciative of the funding available to them. The Downtown Association (DA) had five representatives speaking to its proposed event, urging the committee to change its current recommendation of zero funding. They all felt that the proposed event would bring people downtown, who do not generally visit the Farmers Market otherwise. It would honor the veterans and mark a special event that would be repeated each year. The DA plans to establish a subcommittee of veterans who would come up with the event marketing. After hearing all representatives present, the committee resumed deliberation of the allocations. They asked for several clarifications from the DA representatives and reviewed the proposed budget for the DA event. ACTION: Moved by J. Conner/Babb to allocate $2,000 in funding for advertising only to the Downtown Association and to recommend to Council funding of the 2009-10 GIA for cultural activities in the amount of$89,680 as established in the previous meeting.
