as amended.
Ms. Mykles seconded the motion.
The motion passed unanimously.
IV. Public Input: none.
V. Mr. Flowers introduced the new Board member Lili Francuz.
VI. Mr. Rogers initiated a discussion re: funding plan option choices. There are 3 to
choose from. The Board chose option 1. The Board proceeded to discuss recurring
problems with applications. The main problems that were identified: budget and
insurance. These topics, and Fort Fund application questions will be addressed at a
future work session.
VII. Ms. Mykles recused herself from scoring on the Symphony application. Scoring was
recorded. Results were that 9 out of 10 applicants qualified for funding. The Board
unanimously agreed that the one application did not rate a high enough score to be
considered. The Board wanted to know the amount of funds they had to work with.
Mr. Rogers informed them that it was $40,000.
Ms. Cox made a motion to accept the Boards recommendations for funding. Mr.
Solomon seconded the motion
VIII. Mr. Rogers informed the Board, that a new Board member will not be added now, due
to lack of qualified applicants on file. This promoted a discussion to the Board to
network and have applicants that are passionate about the Arts and can make the time
commitment come forward.
IX. Next Board meeting is 7/26/2018
X. Other Business: Ms. Folsom presented the idea to the Board about having applicants in
the future supplement their application with a two-minute video of their choice. This
type of presentation would give more dimension to the application than just paper. It
could be an “elevator pitch” or any format the applicant chooses, but with an agreed
upon time limit. Ms. Mykles commented that other funding committees are
incorporating this idea successfully.
XI. Adjournment: 7:10 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Liz Irvine
Secretary
