B aa Director of Finance City Attorney EXHIBIT A Resolution No. 16130 Page 2 -- February 18, 1991 City of Chula Vista C/O Community Development Dept. Alisa Duffey Rogers 276 Fourth Avenue Chula Vista, Ca 91910 Dear Alisa, Per our board meeting 6f February 12, 1991 I am providing you with a proposed budget for our 1991 budget. Along with the regular budget, which typically covers promotional events and expenses, we are also proposing an additional budget item for the position of "town manager". As you are aware this position would employ an individual capable of 1) supervising all promotional activities within the district, 2) assisting in filling tenancy vacancies throughout the district, & 3) generally performing whatever tasks are necessary to see the district prosper. We are reqUesting a five year commitment at the rate of $50,000.per our budget we have designated $5,000 3~°~fw' notice in budget) to supplement this position. After this position is established for a period of three to five years it is anticipated that it could be self sustaining either in whole or in part. [Current speakers hosted by the Community Redevelopment Department, speaking specificall on the topic of "town managers" indicate that there Is reason to anticipate cost effective benefits.] In either case we feel that the need for the services that this position could provide are critically needed at this time, and we ask that you give serious consideration to this reqUest. RespeCtfully Submitted Michael Steiner President: Downtown Business Association EXHIBIT A Resolution No. 16130 Page 3 February 18, 1991 City of Chula Vista C/O Community Development Dept Alisa Duffey Rogers 276 Fourth Avenue Chula Vista, Ca 91910 PROPOSED 1991 BUDGET DOWNTOWN BUSINESS ASSOCIATION 1) Supplemental to "Town Manager" position . $5,000 2) Christmas Parade .... $7,500 3) Directory of merchants/restaurants . . $1,500 4) Friday Nite/Date Nite (6-8) Promotions . $4,000 5) Combined Merchants Promotions . $4,000 1991 Budget Request ..... $22.000 Tow, Mana9er Position ........ $50.000 (Subject of Future Report) - The promotionals this year involve the commitment of the merchants to form subcommittees which will organize and hold differing promotions than in previous years. These promotions are designed to attract customers to events held both in the evenings and day time. Some of the ideas include ways to attract working moms on Saturday mornings, making senior citizens feel welcomed and honored, creating a theme of customer importance, and promoting the idea of Downtown Chula Vista: The Best Kept Secret in San Diego County. Our strength and success is to come from merchants participating both in the concept and actual promoting of the planned events. Attempts are to be made to find ways for merchants to piggy-back on each others drawin power and thus utilize the potential already in place. Details are not intended in this proposal; but it would be safe to sa that attempts to adequately promote Downtown Chula Vista f~rst need to be made by the merchants working together. Once these attempts are established then additional avenues need to be implemented; avenues that reach beyond the scope and current resources of the Association.
