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 #2 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 $5,000 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 $5,000 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.
Disbursements from funds in the City's Cultural Development and Programming and Tourism
Programming accounts as shown on Exhibit "A" to the Resolution were recommended by the
