FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL STAFF:
Dave Siever
SUBJECT :
Resolution 2000-37 Adopting the Recommendation of the Cultural Resources Board Regarding
Fort Fund Disbursements.
RECOMMENDATION:
i
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Cultural Resources Board is authorized by the City Code to review proposals for funding
from the Cultural Programming Account and the Tourism Programming Account, and to submit
recommendations to the City Council regarding such proposals for approval. The Cultural
Development and Programming Account is used to support cultural development and
18 programming activities. The Tourism Programming Account is used for funding of tourist-
related special events, because it is generated from the portion of the lodging tax that is
designated for the promotion of convention and visitor activities. Both of these funds are used to
fund grants through the Fort Fund program.
The administrative guidelines for the Fort Fund program, which sets out the standards for
awarding grants from the Cultural Development & Programming Account and the Tourism
Account through the Fort Fund program (Fort Fund Guidelines) were adopted and approved
through the City Manager's office in November 30, 1998. These Guidelines establish a three-
tiered funding system for organizations that apply for grants from Fort Fund. Tier #1 was
established as an annual programming fund for organizations whose primary purpose is to
present three or more public events annually. These groups may apply for funding from Tier #1
each April. Tier 42 allows organizations that are not eligible for Tier #1 support to apply for
funding of events that are not fund-raising in nature and do not generate more than $2,500 in
proceeds after expenses. Tier#3 allows organizations that are not eligible for Tier #1 support to
apply for funding of events that generate more than $2,500 in proceeds after expenses and are
fund-raising in nature. Applications for support from Tier #2 and Tier #3 are accepted each
January and June.
The following disbursements from funds in the City's Cultural Development and Programming
and Tourism accounts were recommended by the Cultural Resources Board at its regular meeting
of January 26, 2000, for Tier#2 and Tier#3 applicants.
