1
00:00:03,890 --> 00:00:04,650
You're good to go?

2
00:00:05,750 --> 00:00:11,350
It's 6-9 p.m. I'm calling to order a special meeting of the technical arts commission.

3
00:00:14,510 --> 00:00:15,190
We

4
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:23,140
do have one public comment that came via email sent

5
00:00:27,140 --> 00:00:33,020
to Mr. Handy on July 16, 2025 from the Journey Dance Center.

6
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,780
Subject is arts commission public comment July 16, 2025.

7
00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:44,540
It's from Miata Metzger, 219 South Cedar Ridge Drive, Ducalville, Suffrage, and Old Sex.

8
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,760
And my apologies if I mispronounce your name.

9
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,640
My name is Miata Metzger, and I'm the owner of the Journey Dance Center located here in Ducalville.

10
00:00:53,060 --> 00:00:57,160
I'm here today to express my strong support for the proposed ARC grants.

11
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:04,660
These grants are not just financial allocations, they are vital investments in the future of our community's artistic landscape

12
00:01:04,660 --> 00:01:06,760
and the development of our young talent.

13
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,480
For our organization, the availability of these grants

14
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:11,640
would be transformative.

15
00:01:12,420 --> 00:01:14,620
Specifically, these funds would allow us

16
00:01:14,620 --> 00:01:17,800
to significantly expand our scholarship programs,

17
00:01:18,380 --> 00:01:21,380
make our education accessible to a broader range of students

18
00:01:21,380 --> 00:01:23,300
who might otherwise be unable to participate

19
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:24,480
due to financial burdens.

20
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,080
This directly translates into more opportunities

21
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,380
for expiring artists to hone their skills

22
00:01:31,380 --> 00:01:32,660
and pursue their passions.

23
00:01:32,660 --> 00:01:37,600
Furthermore, the grants have provided much needed assistance in funding our annual recital.

24
00:01:38,140 --> 00:01:45,280
This event is a quarter stone of our program, offering students an invaluable platform to showcase their hard work and dedication.

25
00:01:46,140 --> 00:01:50,600
It is also a cherished community event that celebrates local talent and brings people together.

26
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:57,300
The financial support from these grants would ensure the continued high quality and accessibility of this important tradition.

27
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,720
investing in these art grants is an investment in the artistic enrichment of

28
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:06,100
our community, the development of our youth, and the continued vitality of local

29
00:02:06,100 --> 00:02:10,540
arts programs. I urge the committee to approve these grants. Thank you much for

30
00:02:10,540 --> 00:02:11,300
your time and consideration.

31
00:02:13,990 --> 00:02:17,090
And Alex, that is the only public comment? That is

32
00:02:17,090 --> 00:02:25,050
the only. We're going to go ahead and move on to the meat of this. So if I

33
00:02:25,050 --> 00:02:31,230
I could maybe start with a bit of a slide challenge.

34
00:02:31,250 --> 00:02:32,610
So I was going to give you a little bit of a lead in.

35
00:02:33,190 --> 00:02:33,890
Oh, go for it.

36
00:02:34,030 --> 00:02:34,130
Thanks.

37
00:02:34,890 --> 00:02:37,190
So we're here today to review and consider

38
00:02:37,190 --> 00:02:39,430
making recommendations for the City Council regarding

39
00:02:39,430 --> 00:02:41,870
archery and applications submitted during the June 2025

40
00:02:41,870 --> 00:02:43,270
grant application cycle.

41
00:02:44,950 --> 00:02:48,490
Our staff liaison, Alex Hamby, has some information

42
00:02:48,490 --> 00:02:53,330
regarding fund availability in the Denver Alarchs Fund.

43
00:02:53,330 --> 00:02:55,110
So, Mr. Handy, you have the floor.

44
00:02:55,450 --> 00:03:01,150
So I met with Richard Jackson, the Managing Director of Physical Services today, so I

45
00:03:01,150 --> 00:03:06,790
can make sure that everybody had a clear idea as far as the available funding.

46
00:03:07,670 --> 00:03:13,550
So the first thing that we went and looked at was what was currently in the fund.

47
00:03:13,810 --> 00:03:17,230
The current, wait a minute, let me backtrack.

48
00:03:17,910 --> 00:03:22,670
This is the total amount that's being requested in all of these grants combined, as they

49
00:03:22,670 --> 00:03:30,030
were submitted. So it is $88,192 total dollars that is being requested across these 15 grants.

50
00:03:31,110 --> 00:03:34,650
So during my conversation with Richard, I wanted to make sure that there was a proper framework

51
00:03:34,650 --> 00:03:39,710
of how much money was available for you to recommend the City Council spend on these grants.

52
00:03:40,210 --> 00:03:45,670
So we started with going into the fund ballot, into the account inquiry, and looking at how

53
00:03:45,670 --> 00:03:50,750
much money is actually in the account as of now. As of this morning, as of this

54
00:03:50,750 --> 00:03:57,270
afternoon, it was $85,104.44. That is two transfers from the hotel

55
00:03:57,270 --> 00:04:04,550
occupancy tax so far this year has made up that total amount. After you all went

56
00:04:04,550 --> 00:04:09,670
to City Council, you asked for $20,000 for three events, which included the

57
00:04:09,670 --> 00:04:17,190
the Juneteenth weekday, week-long event, the Hispanic Heritage event, and the Arts and

58
00:04:17,190 --> 00:04:18,030
Business Fixer.

59
00:04:18,250 --> 00:04:29,810
That leaves a balance of $65,104 that is not encumbered or is not committed by your request.

60
00:04:30,890 --> 00:04:36,750
So then I asked him, what is a recommended total expenditure for this grant cycle?

61
00:04:37,370 --> 00:04:44,170
So, the thing to keep in mind is while there is the 80-something thousand dollars in there,

62
00:04:44,810 --> 00:04:47,410
the budgeted amount was $50,000.

63
00:04:47,930 --> 00:04:49,530
That is how much was budgeted.

64
00:04:49,950 --> 00:04:55,450
So while there is money in there, it's how much is budgeted is what is available to

65
00:04:55,450 --> 00:04:55,870
spend.

66
00:04:56,030 --> 00:04:58,590
And you're spending $20,000 of that.

67
00:04:58,750 --> 00:05:02,350
Is that budgeted for the grants or is that budgeted for what?

68
00:05:02,570 --> 00:05:03,650
That's just budgeted.

69
00:05:03,650 --> 00:05:05,970
your expenses for so far.

70
00:05:07,150 --> 00:05:09,570
So because that, when they did the budget last year,

71
00:05:09,970 --> 00:05:12,830
they put in how much was the anticipated income,

72
00:05:13,010 --> 00:05:14,190
which was an estimate,

73
00:05:14,830 --> 00:05:16,610
and then budgeted an expense amount.

74
00:05:16,810 --> 00:05:20,790
So they just did a number that they predicted

75
00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:22,530
because of the fact that this is the first time

76
00:05:22,530 --> 00:05:25,270
there's an arts fund, first time having this body

77
00:05:25,270 --> 00:05:26,890
being involved in such a thing.

78
00:05:27,690 --> 00:05:30,510
At first, they picked numbers.

79
00:05:30,510 --> 00:05:35,770
So, they budgeted $50,000, of which $20,000 you've already asked for.

80
00:05:37,210 --> 00:05:46,570
As part of this process, Richard has recommended that I take a Resolution of City Council next

81
00:05:46,570 --> 00:05:56,130
month requesting an appropriation of $30,000 from the ARCS Fund, the unappropriated funds

82
00:05:56,130 --> 00:06:01,730
funds to move into the appropriated funds for you to apply to these grants, which would

83
00:06:01,730 --> 00:06:09,450
make the total amount $60,000 it's available to you tonight to recommend in these grants.

84
00:06:11,070 --> 00:06:15,990
Trying to make sure that I don't leave anything out of this, I was asked when is the next

85
00:06:15,990 --> 00:06:20,490
budget transfer that will be in August, so there will be funds for the next Arts

86
00:06:20,490 --> 00:06:25,510
Commission to work with from this fiscal year that they'll be able to work with

87
00:06:25,510 --> 00:06:27,610
for the next grant cycle, next grant cycle,

88
00:06:27,690 --> 00:06:30,770
the application window September 1st through the 30th,

89
00:06:30,890 --> 00:06:32,890
October is going to be when they review the,

90
00:06:33,650 --> 00:06:35,670
when they review those grant applications,

91
00:06:35,790 --> 00:06:38,290
and remember that will be the new makeup

92
00:06:38,290 --> 00:06:41,250
of the Arts Commission, and then that will be,

93
00:06:41,490 --> 00:06:44,670
that will go to City Council the month after that.

94
00:06:44,990 --> 00:06:46,830
So that's important, because recall,

95
00:06:46,970 --> 00:06:49,270
we had talked about moving my hand forward

96
00:06:49,270 --> 00:06:50,170
to the next Arts Commission,

97
00:06:50,670 --> 00:06:52,110
so that they would start with zero.

98
00:06:52,110 --> 00:06:56,890
So that's something that won't necessarily be a burden.

99
00:06:58,070 --> 00:06:59,450
That was going to be my question.

100
00:06:59,730 --> 00:07:09,350
If we save money for the next fiscal year, what will that come from the 60th?

101
00:07:10,570 --> 00:07:12,650
There's another policy to transfer to August.

102
00:07:12,650 --> 00:07:15,050
It's actually going to come from an August transfer.

103
00:07:15,710 --> 00:07:21,150
So are we saving some back for the next?

104
00:07:21,150 --> 00:07:32,270
That is that does take care of it. So the August this is the 60,000 is what is available now after the appropriation of the funds that's currently in the balance.

105
00:07:32,450 --> 00:07:38,930
The next fund transfer that will happen in August will actually help the next Arts Commission and that next grant cycle.

106
00:07:39,190 --> 00:07:47,210
So as of right now, realistically, we're saying that about 40 around $42,000 each deposit has been made.

107
00:07:47,210 --> 00:07:49,210
there's been two deposits made, correct?

108
00:07:49,930 --> 00:07:52,510
So we're averaging, so we're thinking about

109
00:07:52,510 --> 00:07:56,370
that average for August to come in for the transfer

110
00:07:56,370 --> 00:08:00,030
is gonna be around $40,000 to $43,000, something like that.

111
00:08:00,650 --> 00:08:02,210
Based on the last two transfers?

112
00:08:02,910 --> 00:08:05,170
He said that that's not easily predicted.

113
00:08:05,650 --> 00:08:07,470
I mean, you can guesstimate,

114
00:08:07,650 --> 00:08:10,130
but not gonna know until it comes in,

115
00:08:10,130 --> 00:08:12,750
because again, that depends on the hotel's business.

116
00:08:12,770 --> 00:08:13,370
I'm also the first transferred.

117
00:08:14,530 --> 00:08:16,010
I have to look it up.

118
00:08:16,010 --> 00:08:20,250
It was, I mean, you're right, but the next transfer,

119
00:08:20,750 --> 00:08:23,890
there's no way to know exactly what that dollar amount is

120
00:08:23,890 --> 00:08:26,330
because the first transfer was higher than the second one.

121
00:08:26,810 --> 00:08:28,690
The third one could be either higher or lower.

122
00:08:29,370 --> 00:08:31,090
It's just, I mean, the easy-

123
00:08:31,090 --> 00:08:33,470
There's gonna be some sort of surplus going into-

124
00:08:33,470 --> 00:08:34,070
Yes, yes.

125
00:08:34,210 --> 00:08:34,370
Okay.

126
00:08:36,830 --> 00:08:38,230
All right, so any other questions

127
00:08:38,230 --> 00:08:39,990
on the left of the hand that you just discussed?

128
00:08:41,170 --> 00:08:41,470
A second.

129
00:08:44,030 --> 00:08:45,050
So we have,

130
00:08:46,850 --> 00:08:50,690
You mentioned that you requested that the council,

131
00:08:51,210 --> 00:08:55,370
if you will be requesting meeting the council, move an additional $30,000.

132
00:08:56,930 --> 00:09:00,470
Or what did I request for that, because I-

133
00:09:00,470 --> 00:09:07,770
It'll be taking a resolution for them to consider to appropriate $30,000 from the unappropriated funds.

134
00:09:08,230 --> 00:09:15,030
So that will add to the $30,000 balance that is still sitting there of appropriated funds to bring you to $60,000.

135
00:09:18,700 --> 00:09:26,400
So Ron's calculation of 91,000 is incorrect, it wasn't quite correct, because they...

136
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,280
No, I put another one in here, it was incorrect.

137
00:09:28,740 --> 00:09:31,620
And I didn't bother to tell another email because it would be another email.

138
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,680
The current total is 88,192.

139
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:37,440
I got it.

140
00:09:39,780 --> 00:09:42,140
I put two in there that didn't work.

141
00:09:43,980 --> 00:09:55,300
All right, any other questions I want Mr. Hungry is okay, so first of all three I am a little housekeeping

142
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,520
Mayor Pro Tem Gooden so she was not gonna be able to attend tonight because she

143
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,520
wanted to ask to be able to to really lean in this without any counsel looking

144
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:10,660
over her shoulder. She's just good luck. She trusts her arts commission and I am

145
00:10:10,660 --> 00:10:13,200
I'm so happy to see a full table.

146
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,560
I want to tell you right now Mr. Hamby

147
00:10:15,560 --> 00:10:17,740
has done a lot of heavy lifting to make this work.

148
00:10:22,580 --> 00:10:25,600
I want us to be able to move forward with confidence

149
00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:29,100
that what we're doing today has never been done before.

150
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,280
Whatever your experience is with DCBC or City Council,

151
00:10:32,660 --> 00:10:33,220
this is new.

152
00:10:34,060 --> 00:10:35,900
Whatever your experience is with other foundations

153
00:10:35,900 --> 00:10:37,960
or your bank or other people, this is new.

154
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,820
Right now there's a lot of attention on this policy

155
00:10:42,820 --> 00:10:45,380
because it's a really good policy.

156
00:10:46,420 --> 00:10:50,420
So what we're doing tonight will be test drug limits.

157
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,500
So I want us to move forward in confidence

158
00:10:53,500 --> 00:10:58,220
that if we don't know what we're doing or if we get confused,

159
00:10:58,840 --> 00:10:59,720
we talk about it.

160
00:10:59,820 --> 00:11:00,180
We open.

161
00:11:00,500 --> 00:11:00,940
I'm confused.

162
00:11:01,700 --> 00:11:05,020
If you haven't had a chance to read all the applications

163
00:11:05,020 --> 00:11:08,020
or if there's something that you haven't read, tell us.

164
00:11:08,660 --> 00:11:11,200
It does not mean your voice is any less important.

165
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,140
and does not mean your opinion is not really important,

166
00:11:13,940 --> 00:11:16,000
but it helps us understand volume.

167
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,420
Alex has been really trying to figure out

168
00:11:19,420 --> 00:11:21,300
what the process to make this work,

169
00:11:21,420 --> 00:11:24,000
but understand today, tonight.

170
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,560
This is not gonna be a conversation about process

171
00:11:26,560 --> 00:11:28,480
and it's not gonna be a conversation about policy

172
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,100
because that's not what this meeting is about.

173
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,000
What I would ask you to do, as you go along

174
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,820
and if there's something about the process

175
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,400
that you think can be improved that you didn't like

176
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,020
that bugged you, write it down

177
00:11:40,020 --> 00:11:43,120
what you're thinking on, write it down what's hot in your memory because we're

178
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:48,860
going to have an additional meeting to talk about the process, the policy. I'm

179
00:11:48,860 --> 00:11:52,620
imagining that now that you had a chance to use the policy, we've probably had a

180
00:11:52,620 --> 00:11:55,880
chance to figure out maybe we need to go back and look at some things on it.

181
00:11:58,340 --> 00:11:58,760
So

182
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:04,000
to get us started, you know, we went off into our little private spaces and

183
00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:07,400
there was no precedent and we just kind of started figuring out the way

184
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,340
that we could do this based on our own life experience.

185
00:12:10,060 --> 00:12:13,940
So what I would like to do is, I would like first

186
00:12:13,940 --> 00:12:18,240
to go around the table and just really briefly explain

187
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,740
the process by which you reviewed it

188
00:12:20,740 --> 00:12:22,100
and how you made determinations.

189
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,980
Do not go into detail, we'll talk about that.

190
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,960
So this way it'll give us a baseline

191
00:12:27,420 --> 00:12:30,140
on which to just to move forward on.

192
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,140
Once we've done that and we all kind of figure out

193
00:12:33,140 --> 00:12:34,580
what are the way that we worked,

194
00:12:36,140 --> 00:12:40,120
Mr. Hanby, don't get these out of order. The applications were alphabetical order from

195
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:45,160
the top. He has some slides we're going to go through. As we move forward, I'm going

196
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:49,420
to ask each one of you to just go around, because it's going to be a long meeting. We

197
00:12:49,420 --> 00:12:55,480
all need to talk, to introduce the application. If you haven't read the application and

198
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,200
it's your turn to look, just let us know and that's okay.

199
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:01,560
Something to think

200
00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:08,280
about. Did anybody watch City Council last night? Is anybody there? So you'll

201
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:12,500
notice, if you watched it, what irritated is the attorney more than anything,

202
00:13:15,450 --> 00:13:15,790
right?

203
00:13:18,510 --> 00:13:24,130
He had mentioned opinions are wonderful, but they don't matter. It's what's on the

204
00:13:24,130 --> 00:13:30,330
record. So we don't have an arts policy. We don't have a strategic plan and we

205
00:13:30,330 --> 00:13:34,530
don't have a cultural plan. What we have is our funding policy and what we

206
00:13:34,530 --> 00:13:40,290
have is the Texas suit step. That's the hot evaluation. Those are the only things

207
00:13:40,290 --> 00:13:46,170
that are on the record for us to consider. So as we move forward on this, we

208
00:13:46,170 --> 00:13:50,590
have to make recommendations to the city council in a way that they make

209
00:13:50,590 --> 00:13:56,690
decisions. So if there's an opinion, if there's a comment, if there's an idea,

210
00:13:56,950 --> 00:14:00,130
if you're able to cite anything in the policies, one of those two policies.

211
00:14:01,150 --> 00:14:04,390
If you've used, like, something else, another document,

212
00:14:04,790 --> 00:14:07,030
if you could tell us when you do it, so it's going to be on the record.

213
00:14:08,330 --> 00:14:12,310
So, when Mr. Hamby presents to the city council,

214
00:14:13,470 --> 00:14:15,370
and there's a question about something,

215
00:14:16,010 --> 00:14:17,570
Mr. Hamby can go back and say,

216
00:14:17,710 --> 00:14:20,850
well, this was the source material from which they used.

217
00:14:20,950 --> 00:14:21,670
This was up on the record.

218
00:14:22,490 --> 00:14:23,890
And they can go back and say,

219
00:14:23,970 --> 00:14:28,290
well, page 10 on this policy, on the city funding policy,

220
00:14:28,290 --> 00:14:33,330
state. So this was the conversation. So what we don't want is to have Mr.

221
00:14:33,430 --> 00:14:37,550
Hamby from the City Council and not have them prepared and have the City

222
00:14:37,550 --> 00:14:41,610
Attorney yell at the City Council because then they won't trust our

223
00:14:41,610 --> 00:14:48,350
recommendations ever. Does that make sense? Okay so what I would like to do is

224
00:14:48,350 --> 00:14:51,370
I'll get the ball started and then I would like I just want to know

225
00:14:51,370 --> 00:14:57,150
everybody's process and that way we understand. If you haven't noticed I

226
00:14:57,150 --> 00:14:58,130
I tend to be an overthinker.

227
00:14:58,870 --> 00:14:59,890
I went through

228
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,520
To all the applications, I am a memo writer.

229
00:15:05,750 --> 00:15:08,170
I didn't take any consideration of my personal

230
00:15:08,170 --> 00:15:12,310
opinions or what I liked about something. I didn't look at the artistic integrity I looked

231
00:15:12,310 --> 00:15:18,470
at. This was the funding policy. This is the hot two step. Could I justify this and this

232
00:15:18,470 --> 00:15:23,890
at the same time? Then for everyone, I wrote this memo. This memo is actually to you

233
00:15:23,890 --> 00:15:27,210
guys, but because it would look like I was trying to persuade you of thinking and opinion,

234
00:15:27,210 --> 00:15:29,050
and I did not forward it to you but beforehand.

235
00:15:30,350 --> 00:15:32,610
And so what I did for myself,

236
00:15:32,850 --> 00:15:35,030
because I will get signed on ahead

237
00:15:35,030 --> 00:15:36,650
and forget what I'm thinking about,

238
00:15:37,150 --> 00:15:40,310
I have in there why I think it's eligible for this,

239
00:15:40,830 --> 00:15:42,210
why I think it's eligible for this,

240
00:15:42,310 --> 00:15:43,810
why I don't think it's eligible for this,

241
00:15:43,950 --> 00:15:45,790
and I have this document, so if we wanna leave it,

242
00:15:46,110 --> 00:15:47,750
so when we're done, I can leave it part

243
00:15:47,750 --> 00:15:49,570
of the public record and if anybody wants to go

244
00:15:49,570 --> 00:15:51,070
and read my notes, I can read my notes.

245
00:15:51,610 --> 00:15:54,190
So that was my process.

246
00:15:54,190 --> 00:15:56,550
Let's start with the vice chair and we can just go around.

247
00:15:58,610 --> 00:16:02,810
I took old school notes for each one.

248
00:16:03,230 --> 00:16:10,780
I used two documents, the policy, thought policy.

249
00:16:11,260 --> 00:16:16,420
I focused on the requirements, the eligibility, the fund limit,

250
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,840
the uses requirement for each type.

251
00:16:21,340 --> 00:16:29,880
And then I used the Texas two-step, but I was really still kind of confused on the first step, which is the beds, heads and beds.

252
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:40,120
And so page seven of this unabridged version, I really focused in on and I'd like to share some of those when it's appropriate.

253
00:16:41,340 --> 00:16:48,780
But that was my call process. I looked at those two things and it could, you know, did these things.

254
00:16:48,780 --> 00:16:54,680
and to follow the text is two-step, that was what I based my thoughts on.

255
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:56,140
That's why.

256
00:16:56,900 --> 00:16:58,520
So I kind of did the same thing as Mac.

257
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,000
I just went and utilized the policy we've already put together,

258
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,160
and I kind of compared that to the type of application it was,

259
00:17:05,580 --> 00:17:08,280
and I really kind of, there are certain things, of course,

260
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,260
we're going to highlight more in the other video or whatever,

261
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,500
but I really wanted to keep it centralized in the qualifications

262
00:17:14,500 --> 00:17:16,180
and the requirements that we set forth

263
00:17:16,180 --> 00:17:18,100
and make sure that they're wide in depth.

264
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:30,720
I used weighted categories for the two steps

265
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,060
and for the artistic merit.

266
00:17:34,300 --> 00:17:36,220
The others were not as important and were smaller,

267
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,680
and that helped me get to the conclusion.

268
00:17:40,540 --> 00:17:42,960
I think I would redo the weights.

269
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,220
I don't know if they're what I would use again,

270
00:17:45,380 --> 00:17:46,040
but it was possible.

271
00:17:49,870 --> 00:17:55,250
I used Marianne's rubric and particularly focused on the Duncanville connection.

272
00:17:56,470 --> 00:18:03,330
I wish I had, I had several questions about locations and I wish I had had time to drive around and see some of these,

273
00:18:03,710 --> 00:18:06,230
where the mural would go on this first one.

274
00:18:06,810 --> 00:18:11,090
And so I did read them all and think about them.

275
00:18:11,470 --> 00:18:13,110
I didn't really score them though.

276
00:18:13,810 --> 00:18:14,970
That's okay. Thank you.

277
00:18:16,210 --> 00:18:21,750
Yeah, so I was able to glance not like thoroughly, but I was able to glance through most of these applications.

278
00:18:22,890 --> 00:18:33,210
And the thing that I was looking for was uniqueness and how it involves other communities and how that could, I guess, put heads in beds.

279
00:18:33,610 --> 00:18:40,350
You know, I kind of would think about that as a more than one-day event, or even if it's a one-day event, is it an all-day event

280
00:18:40,350 --> 00:18:43,510
that will maybe persuade people to stay here and eat dinner,

281
00:18:43,710 --> 00:18:45,970
and maybe just get a room or something, who knows.

282
00:18:46,510 --> 00:18:48,710
But that was my sense of the word.

283
00:18:48,730 --> 00:18:49,130
Thanks, Sarah.

284
00:18:49,550 --> 00:18:49,730
Sam.

285
00:18:51,050 --> 00:18:54,190
Yeah, I went through the PDFs on the computer.

286
00:18:55,470 --> 00:18:58,370
I think I was missing a couple, probably lost

287
00:18:58,370 --> 00:19:00,550
in the many emails, so it's OK.

288
00:19:01,350 --> 00:19:03,790
Because some didn't really kind of know how much they

289
00:19:03,790 --> 00:19:08,370
asking for, in the process that I found.

290
00:19:09,550 --> 00:19:13,570
I, you know, I based it on the hot, whether or not

291
00:19:13,570 --> 00:19:16,170
a hot qualifier, it's based on my understanding of it

292
00:19:16,170 --> 00:19:19,090
and the doctor nuts, the trainings we've had,

293
00:19:19,230 --> 00:19:20,610
the panacea, and all that kind of stuff.

294
00:19:22,430 --> 00:19:25,330
And trying to understand how it would affect tourism

295
00:19:25,330 --> 00:19:27,490
and community, each application.

296
00:19:28,850 --> 00:19:30,730
And also, I thought about, well,

297
00:19:30,730 --> 00:19:33,490
Well, what if this is the first of an annual thing?

298
00:19:34,570 --> 00:19:36,950
And in the future, it might become a really big thing

299
00:19:36,950 --> 00:19:39,730
and really attract tourists and over the next days.

300
00:19:40,270 --> 00:19:42,010
But if it's not supported from the beginning,

301
00:19:42,170 --> 00:19:44,570
how can it get to that place where it can be big enough

302
00:19:44,570 --> 00:19:48,010
to, in the future, be a thing?

303
00:19:48,470 --> 00:19:52,790
And so I considered that when I was trying to think of it.

304
00:19:53,210 --> 00:19:56,590
I had no, I didn't do any totals on the numbers.

305
00:19:56,590 --> 00:20:04,110
So I didn't know, you know, just, that was my criteria, you know,

306
00:20:04,250 --> 00:20:07,270
whether that would be handled for more than what we had.

307
00:20:09,660 --> 00:20:09,980
Thank you.

308
00:20:10,300 --> 00:20:10,520
Amy?

309
00:20:11,360 --> 00:20:13,580
I'm really similar in that.

310
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,420
I really tried to think through what was just said,

311
00:20:17,740 --> 00:20:21,760
our knowledge of hot thumbs and how they're supposed to be applied

312
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,060
and used based on the presentation that's done by the person

313
00:20:26,060 --> 00:20:28,160
the same thing about this in the planning knowledge.

314
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,160
I mean, everything in our guidelines

315
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,840
as well, what we've set forth is the elderly and the climate

316
00:20:33,540 --> 00:20:35,180
and the application of them.

317
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,600
I didn't school them either.

318
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,300
I didn't know the other two were

319
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:40,600
how we were going to approach this decision, right?

320
00:20:41,140 --> 00:20:42,140
We certainly are driven.

321
00:20:43,100 --> 00:20:46,840
I think specifically, I think one of our cards

322
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,020
is going to start to be, to remember that really often

323
00:20:50,020 --> 00:20:54,280
it has to promote at least the effort

324
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,380
to put it back into that test to be there.

325
00:20:56,900 --> 00:21:00,600
I remember the previous director of economic development

326
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:01,980
telling me, it's hard.

327
00:21:02,780 --> 00:21:05,360
You're predicting, is it going to be for sure?

328
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:06,320
No, no.

329
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,840
It's kind of like not being able to predict the funding,

330
00:21:09,100 --> 00:21:12,300
but it doesn't have a likelihood of putting head to head.

331
00:21:12,620 --> 00:21:15,600
To me, that's pretty early in the system of criteria.

332
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,120
But it's always been through the years

333
00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:18,680
that's important for the outcomes.

334
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:20,540
Mr. Angela?

335
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:21,380
OK.

336
00:21:21,380 --> 00:21:27,320
I read through all the expectations and basically look at our funding policy and the hot funds

337
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:37,720
and I just use the matrix that Maryanne just said to the buy line up and then as I read

338
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:43,940
through it and did my own little assessments and so forth, I did my own internal score.

339
00:21:44,380 --> 00:21:47,780
And as you're hearing how everybody does things, I've already heard things that people

340
00:21:47,780 --> 00:21:54,200
going to improve remember write the notes down because we're doing this. So I was telling Alex a

341
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,720
joke today I got a call from Marianne and she says well do we have a rubric? I said did you make a

342
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,940
rubric? No then we don't have a rubric. Matt calls me we have a checklist you can make a checklist

343
00:22:01,940 --> 00:22:07,240
no then we don't have a checklist so it's like whatever we create here tonight is what's

344
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,920
going to set the standard. So does everybody it sounds like everybody kind of understands

345
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,440
how we approached it.

346
00:22:14,660 --> 00:22:17,380
In your notes for the next meeting if there's anything

347
00:22:17,380 --> 00:22:20,860
thing that you found frustrating about accessing the information, be sure to put

348
00:22:20,860 --> 00:22:26,140
in your notes because we'll need to talk about that in a minute. So would

349
00:22:28,190 --> 00:22:28,530
you like to

350
00:22:28,530 --> 00:22:29,530
go and get started in the applications?

351
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,840
These slides shows are very very short.

352
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:42,560
First one is Beacons of Light. This is a public art grant request. The project

353
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,420
summary, which I'm sure you've all read, Kailin Wye McGuire of Kailin

354
00:22:46,420 --> 00:22:50,520
McGuire Media will paint a mural on the side wall of the Texaco building

355
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,680
building property near Brandenburg Intermediate School in Duncanville, Texas.

356
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,580
The artwork reflects the youth of Duncanville as rising champions in the community.

357
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,980
As students pass by this public art on their way to school,

358
00:23:03,360 --> 00:23:09,160
they will be reminded of their championhood, which can positively influence their academic performance and behavior.

359
00:23:09,700 --> 00:23:14,200
In addition, the mural is projected to inspire, enrich, and empower the city of Duncanville.

360
00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:19,700
It will be esteemed by both citizens and tourists as a landmark that celebrates the spirit of the community.

361
00:23:19,700 --> 00:23:24,520
and serves as a catalyst to support Nougatville's 2040 comprehensive plan and

362
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:29,280
had seen cultural arts and economic development throughout the city. The

363
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:36,620
request of the total project budget as put in the application was $4,053.75 the

364
00:23:36,620 --> 00:23:42,080
requested amount is $3,000 which is in alignment with the max with with the

365
00:23:45,490 --> 00:23:48,130
top request for that grant category.

366
00:23:48,510 --> 00:23:48,710
If

367
00:23:57,260 --> 00:23:59,880
you just put 41 inches back for three inches,

368
00:24:00,100 --> 00:24:02,220
are you assuming that she just used

369
00:24:02,220 --> 00:24:06,020
the professional inch marks incorrectly?

370
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,580
Am I correct for that assessment?

371
00:24:10,260 --> 00:24:10,640
I don't know.

372
00:24:11,820 --> 00:24:13,180
So he's a got to, by the way.

373
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:14,500
It's all relative.

374
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:16,980
If you stand up real close to it, it looks different.

375
00:24:18,180 --> 00:24:25,180
So I want to, here's how I approach this, and then I'll like first of all, I want every

376
00:24:25,180 --> 00:24:25,900
voice on this.

377
00:24:27,780 --> 00:24:30,700
Remember he was the gentleman who came at the last meeting, he spoke.

378
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,940
I looked at two things and I tried to justify it based on the two things.

379
00:24:38,100 --> 00:24:42,160
I said, based on hot rules, is it eligible for funding?

380
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:47,180
I said, yes, the proposed mural project qualifies under the two staff.

381
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:52,260
I said, identify ways it's eligible, public art as a tourism asset.

382
00:24:53,500 --> 00:25:02,200
I also cited the Tunkville 2040 draft to use cultural tourism aligned with the comprehensive

383
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:09,220
plan by explicitly branding the mural as a civic symbol where champions rise, it connects

384
00:25:09,220 --> 00:25:14,600
to the city's broader identity, particularly Dr. Ville's national reputation as city champions.

385
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,560
This gives the mural symbolic tourism value, especially for families visiting

386
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,520
for sporting events, community festivals, or cultural program.

387
00:25:25,500 --> 00:25:29,800
Continuous passive tourism attractions. We've all talked about this, the function of a

388
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:37,220
mural being 24-7 Visibility in the location on Main Street. Digital engagement with the

389
00:25:37,220 --> 00:25:42,220
tourism. He included a QR code leading to the city's website with his profile

390
00:25:42,220 --> 00:25:47,060
which provides trackable data that can measure external engagement, tourism

391
00:25:47,060 --> 00:25:52,640
behavior, even if the mural is on itself a ticketed attraction. The data strategy

392
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,820
directly supports the kind of accountability expected from hot funds

393
00:25:55,820 --> 00:26:00,840
as Ms. Jackson talked about the trying to make it work. The applicant

394
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,100
references models like Miami's Windwood Walls,

395
00:26:03,100 --> 00:26:06,060
public art, catalyzed tourism and economic development.

396
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,180
I went ahead as an intellectual experiment

397
00:26:11,180 --> 00:26:13,320
and to identify what would make it ineligible.

398
00:26:14,260 --> 00:26:15,920
I thought, well, if the project did not attract

399
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,200
or attempt to attract tourists or overnight visitors,

400
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,580
if it were not accessible by the public,

401
00:26:21,100 --> 00:26:23,060
if it prompted political, religious or private

402
00:26:23,060 --> 00:26:25,240
non-public content or events,

403
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:26,900
if it required,

404
00:26:28,660 --> 00:26:30,760
and if any of these documentations were missing.

405
00:26:32,020 --> 00:26:36,440
I went on to identify whether it is eligible by city arts funding policy.

406
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:40,420
I said yes, that it does meet the eligibility, eligibility.

407
00:26:42,700 --> 00:26:47,100
It takes place in Duncanville, it's public accessible, it includes property owner permission,

408
00:26:47,360 --> 00:26:51,040
it falls within the budget cap, it includes visual art as a primary artistic medium,

409
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,260
and it provides a complete application package with the narrative budget documentation.

410
00:26:58,530 --> 00:27:02,830
And I went ahead and documented what I thought were the merits based on hot eligibility.

411
00:27:03,870 --> 00:27:10,250
Tourism alignment, project is situated in a visible, frequently located location, described

412
00:27:10,250 --> 00:27:14,490
as part of a larger effort to stimulate the economic and cultural development is aligned

413
00:27:14,490 --> 00:27:17,430
with the Dundable 2040 Conference of Plan.

414
00:27:18,050 --> 00:27:22,710
Community impact, the theme, youth empowerment, civic pride is rooted in the city's identity

415
00:27:22,710 --> 00:27:23,570
and city of champions.

416
00:27:23,570 --> 00:27:29,350
and public engagement, use of the QR code to track your engagement. So you see

417
00:27:29,350 --> 00:27:33,450
that was my approach to look at all of these. I looked at the policy and tried

418
00:27:33,450 --> 00:27:41,210
to apply the policy to the project. That was my approach. So I just wanted to

419
00:27:41,210 --> 00:27:44,690
open up. I'm not going to start every conversation like this. I just want to

420
00:27:44,690 --> 00:27:49,170
start off just to get the ball rolling. So if we could all take a moment

421
00:27:49,170 --> 00:27:53,090
since this is our actually our very first application to look at. Talk

422
00:27:53,090 --> 00:27:54,650
when you think about it, the process,

423
00:27:55,090 --> 00:27:57,250
how it lines with go for 10, go.

424
00:27:57,550 --> 00:27:59,930
Three screening samples of his work,

425
00:28:00,110 --> 00:28:00,570
did you submit it?

426
00:28:00,570 --> 00:28:04,110
He did not send any samples, but I've decided to,

427
00:28:04,490 --> 00:28:06,590
and you can tell me if you want me to do this

428
00:28:06,590 --> 00:28:08,050
as best I can during this meeting.

429
00:28:09,270 --> 00:28:10,550
He does have an Instagram,

430
00:28:11,370 --> 00:28:15,910
and this is one sample that's right towards the top of his.

431
00:28:21,860 --> 00:28:25,040
At the Jill team, one of the Jill team events

432
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,240
he participated in,

433
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:33,120
he actually did a painting or drawing during that first one?

434
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:34,220
Yeah, that I predicted?

435
00:28:35,540 --> 00:28:35,860
Okay.

436
00:28:36,060 --> 00:28:36,820
Why were we there?

437
00:28:37,540 --> 00:28:39,740
Because people came and they talked to him.

438
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:41,680
We think that they were artistic.

439
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:49,440
The process is certainly good.

440
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:55,700
I mean, it seems like if there's ones that we all feel have marry,

441
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,280
we could just quickly, like, yay or nay, go down here,

442
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:04,800
and then as a group, and then we could look at tolls,

443
00:29:04,940 --> 00:29:08,460
start putting a total amount of the yeas and go, wow, OK,

444
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,200
now we've got to really be discerning.

445
00:29:11,980 --> 00:29:16,940
So maybe we could weigh it through this effort.

446
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:18,960
Does anyone want to talk on this application?

447
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:20,480
You want to go with the yeas and the names?

448
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:21,280
How do you want to do this?

449
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:23,440
I just have a comment.

450
00:29:23,660 --> 00:29:26,200
So I'm wondering if he maybe means 41 inches, which

451
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,120
would be about three feet, and by 14 feet.

452
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,940
Does this dimension would be very small, if this is what he means?

453
00:29:34,580 --> 00:29:37,400
That was my question.

454
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:39,720
But nobody knows.

455
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:46,840
And generally, if we picked a mural, we would see more samples.

456
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,480
But his description is interesting, but it's a little vague.

457
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:59,900
You know, I think he would depict youth stylized and realistic, sort of maybe in the style that

458
00:30:01,420 --> 00:30:07,480
Um, this is a question based on the policy. If anybody can recall, does anything in the policy

459
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:15,680
recommend a procedure because we don't have a mural policy? It may come in August, so right

460
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:20,800
now they're like to answer Anne's question, what's going to be the process? Whether we

461
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:29,160
have a valuation, well, there's not a policy for that. There could be, so we'll have to

462
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:36,600
make funding decisions without a policy directive. So we just need to make sure

463
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:42,860
that the application as written covers these two things with the expectation

464
00:30:42,860 --> 00:30:50,180
when a mural policy is adopted that that policy can be carried out by the

465
00:30:50,180 --> 00:30:54,760
applicant. I thought a couple things for this specific one. I thought in most of

466
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,920
these people have Instagrams and stuff. I did take time to look at some of the work or if I

467
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,240
I wasn't sure what they did, I looked at their company,

468
00:31:01,460 --> 00:31:02,860
I looked at their engagement online,

469
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,280
I also Googled them, and what I really like about this one

470
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,600
is it reaches our youth, and that's one of our requirements

471
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:11,560
for comprehensive fan.

472
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,660
It also gives us a chance to collect some KPIs,

473
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,800
and I think that's really good for us, right?

474
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,240
Because a QR code may be something

475
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:21,300
that goes directly to the city,

476
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,340
but it also may be something that we wanna connect

477
00:31:23,340 --> 00:31:26,560
and goes directly to a VAC survey,

478
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,020
or any information that we want to collect so we could probably steer that.

479
00:31:30,780 --> 00:31:34,720
And I thought that it was realistic just as far as the price of murals, right?

480
00:31:35,100 --> 00:31:38,920
The average murals were between $3,000 and $6,500.

481
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:44,960
We just did a mural last month that sort of is a permanent mural, right?

482
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,220
And so that's around the price just for the average one, right?

483
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,300
And so I think that that's a really good price for what he's at.

484
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,660
Asking them more importantly, I think that the lines were making the city look good

485
00:31:55,660 --> 00:31:57,300
and carrying out their kids, right?

486
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,680
And so I think that kind of helps us out

487
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,300
as far as making sure for companies

488
00:32:02,300 --> 00:32:04,060
and planning and also their partners that we've had,

489
00:32:04,380 --> 00:32:06,100
he stayed within the guidelines of that.

490
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:07,720
So I think it's a really good thing

491
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:08,840
and I don't think it's a good guess.

492
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:10,140
So that's what I'm thinking.

493
00:32:11,540 --> 00:32:12,160
Mr. Chair.

494
00:32:13,100 --> 00:32:16,780
I'm concerned about, I like this one,

495
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,100
I like this application, but my concern

496
00:32:20,100 --> 00:32:22,200
has to do with all of the applications

497
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:27,220
and it's the hot phone, according to what I've found out.

498
00:32:27,380 --> 00:32:27,800
Do you want to read it?

499
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:28,960
Go ahead.

500
00:32:29,220 --> 00:32:29,420
All right.

501
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:31,180
So I'm not going to read the whole page,

502
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:36,820
but there must be likely to do, let's try that again.

503
00:32:38,620 --> 00:32:41,900
Two things have to be in place for that first criteria

504
00:32:41,900 --> 00:32:42,700
that heads and beds.

505
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,900
One is to directly promote tourism, which I think

506
00:32:45,900 --> 00:32:48,140
it does, most of them do.

507
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,040
But the second part, it says,

508
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:58,000
and directly promote the convention and hotel industry individuals planning or

509
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:02,960
traveling to a different from a different city or coming for an event

510
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,900
those type of things but that needs to directly tie to the hotel convention

511
00:33:07,900 --> 00:33:13,900
activity as well as the tourism and then it says here if the funded event

512
00:33:13,900 --> 00:33:19,880
or facility is not reasonably likely to directly enhance tourism and the

513
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:27,580
The hotel, convention industry, local hotel hot tax cannot be legally used.

514
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:34,960
And then it says they need to have a plan for

515
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:38,120
how they're going to market to

516
00:33:40,230 --> 00:33:42,270
attract tourists and hotel guests.

517
00:33:42,730 --> 00:33:47,250
If the entity does not adequately market its events to tourists and

518
00:33:47,250 --> 00:33:54,110
hotel guests it is difficult to produce an event that will effectively promote tourism and hotel

519
00:33:54,110 --> 00:34:03,390
activity. The funded event held in a venue that will likely attract tourists and hotel guests,

520
00:34:03,750 --> 00:34:10,910
a city or delegated entity should also consider whether a funded event will be held in a venue

521
00:34:10,910 --> 00:34:14,590
that will likely attract tourists and hotel guests.

522
00:34:15,390 --> 00:34:21,830
A community center is much less likely to attract tourists,

523
00:34:23,770 --> 00:34:28,390
unlike local performing arts venues, museums, or civic centers,

524
00:34:28,610 --> 00:34:32,550
which are likely to attract tourists and hotel guests.

525
00:34:33,150 --> 00:34:35,510
So if an event is in a community,

526
00:34:36,310 --> 00:34:42,350
a picnic, a local parade, an education class, or similar type of event is not

527
00:34:42,350 --> 00:34:51,250
likely to attract tourists and hotel guests. So my fear that our weekly is the

528
00:34:51,250 --> 00:35:05,330
hotel part. If they're not booking a lot of hotel rooms, then it's not

529
00:35:05,330 --> 00:35:11,190
likely to be considered, that's what Amy was speaking to.

530
00:35:11,310 --> 00:35:14,830
Well, yeah, and I think that, as I've always understood it

531
00:35:14,830 --> 00:35:19,790
and been told a lot of times, even one night qualifies

532
00:35:19,790 --> 00:35:20,610
more than 30 arts.

533
00:35:21,090 --> 00:35:23,290
But I'm kind of with you, and I think

534
00:35:23,290 --> 00:35:27,290
it's a fantastic application of what

535
00:35:27,290 --> 00:35:28,550
bringing the arts to Dr. Bell.

536
00:35:28,830 --> 00:35:32,630
I have a hard time getting there on putting any head in death.

537
00:35:32,830 --> 00:35:34,670
I mean, basically, unless we thought they were in bringing

538
00:35:34,670 --> 00:35:39,410
an artist who was gonna stay in one of the hotels for a night or two while they were painting

539
00:35:39,410 --> 00:35:43,750
it, then we'd check that box. We've got it. Because I don't really have to do a block.

540
00:35:44,510 --> 00:35:48,070
That's always one of the questions, and that's one of the things that's been in there for years.

541
00:35:48,490 --> 00:35:52,650
They asked if you're going to, and I was like, no, I'm not going to do a block, but I had to move

542
00:35:52,650 --> 00:35:58,670
ahead and get it. And so if they were, if they could just show, and I think the other thing that, and I don't know how this affects

543
00:35:59,570 --> 00:36:06,150
I know in previous years when it was City Council, sometimes they would say, I mean, we love this

544
00:36:06,150 --> 00:36:12,210
ask, we have more information, perhaps it could be written, so the next grant cycle, if it's not

545
00:36:12,210 --> 00:36:17,510
proven not, I'm not, I'm not recommending that or not, but I'm saying I don't know if we allow for

546
00:36:17,510 --> 00:36:23,270
that, but I think it's a fantastic proposal. I think we need more information about how it might

547
00:36:23,270 --> 00:36:30,790
and packed hotel stays in order to really make sure that all of us I agree but I

548
00:36:30,790 --> 00:36:34,390
was looking to like the location where this is that is you know mainstream

549
00:36:34,390 --> 00:36:38,390
that's where all of our events happen it's gonna be near our cultural district

550
00:36:38,390 --> 00:36:42,790
it's near like our restaurants a local restaurant and stuff so things will be

551
00:36:42,790 --> 00:36:46,890
happening people will take pictures people think oh that's cool let me stop

552
00:36:46,890 --> 00:36:51,130
by and bring other people but also that QR code could lead to like our

553
00:36:51,130 --> 00:36:55,990
city of Dunkinville website and things to do and so they automatically get the

554
00:36:55,990 --> 00:36:58,990
list of what they can do while they're while they're here taking pictures and

555
00:36:59,470 --> 00:37:02,510
you know maybe I don't know if that counts but I would I would think that

556
00:37:02,510 --> 00:37:05,030
would kind of count toward late hot funds maybe you know.

557
00:37:07,450 --> 00:37:08,430
I think it would be

558
00:37:08,430 --> 00:37:14,010
difficult to have anything that is public art be just very directly

559
00:37:14,530 --> 00:37:20,290
cute to that but he's done a good job in explaining why. What? He uses the word

560
00:37:20,290 --> 00:37:28,510
tourism a lot and has a comparison in Miami. So, I think for what it is, I think that's just

561
00:37:28,510 --> 00:37:31,790
what it's probably going to be. It's worth to be at a school, I think it's really important to

562
00:37:31,790 --> 00:37:35,630
realize that, you know, you've got to think about the tournaments, what volleyball is,

563
00:37:36,510 --> 00:37:39,570
football or anything like that. You have people that are going to come in for that,

564
00:37:40,450 --> 00:37:46,290
just being a coach and also, you know, mom, you know, you go to all these other cities

565
00:37:46,290 --> 00:37:48,530
for these tournaments and stuff like that,

566
00:37:48,610 --> 00:37:49,810
whether it be on the weekend, you know,

567
00:37:50,590 --> 00:37:53,110
lots of you do stay because you don't feel

568
00:37:53,110 --> 00:37:54,210
like driving back and forth, don't worry.

569
00:37:54,690 --> 00:37:58,290
So I think that, just in my humble opinion,

570
00:37:58,770 --> 00:38:02,610
I think this is a great testament to what we're looking for.

571
00:38:02,850 --> 00:38:04,090
I think year olds is something that

572
00:38:04,090 --> 00:38:05,910
we've talked about for three years.

573
00:38:06,170 --> 00:38:08,490
We still haven't got the year up on the,

574
00:38:08,990 --> 00:38:10,110
what is that thing called?

575
00:38:10,430 --> 00:38:11,110
The real house.

576
00:38:11,490 --> 00:38:12,170
The real house.

577
00:38:12,530 --> 00:38:12,650
The real house.

578
00:38:12,650 --> 00:38:14,710
And it's so huge, yeah, right?

579
00:38:14,710 --> 00:38:21,450
But so I think that this is the thing about it is what we want to do is employ people to do the things that we haven't been able to do, right?

580
00:38:21,570 --> 00:38:27,930
And we want to make certain that we are turning around and turning up the heat on being able to say is this, guess what?

581
00:38:28,190 --> 00:38:30,230
We can't do it. The teamwork makes the dream work.

582
00:38:30,450 --> 00:38:32,230
And being able to say is this, guess what?

583
00:38:32,450 --> 00:38:37,070
We're allowing these people in our community to help us not only look good,

584
00:38:37,190 --> 00:38:41,230
but to foster a positive environment and speak positively about the city of Dunkinville.

585
00:38:41,230 --> 00:38:47,630
So, to me, I think that that's the key and that was the last one for me.

586
00:38:48,410 --> 00:38:55,430
I'd like to take a motion and recommend that the City Council fund the Beacon of Light project in the amount of $3,000.

587
00:38:56,690 --> 00:38:59,230
Is there any questions or discussion on this?

588
00:39:00,790 --> 00:39:01,690
Okay, go ahead.

589
00:39:02,070 --> 00:39:03,490
I'm all for it.

590
00:39:03,490 --> 00:39:07,450
if we can figure out how to get past that and look out.

591
00:39:13,070 --> 00:39:17,490
First, and then ultimately says this coal fighter didn't kind of thought,

592
00:39:18,030 --> 00:39:21,710
first I thought it was going to be economic development, but then they removed that to us.

593
00:39:21,930 --> 00:39:21,990
Right.

594
00:39:22,570 --> 00:39:24,270
So isn't it our job?

595
00:39:24,790 --> 00:39:30,150
And then do we have to have a lawyer to really come up with the final conclusion here?

596
00:39:30,670 --> 00:39:31,410
I'm not sure.

597
00:39:32,190 --> 00:39:36,670
So after we make recommendations, we've got the staff to make sure the recommendations are.

598
00:39:37,490 --> 00:39:39,490
There's no red flags before it goes to city council.

599
00:39:39,790 --> 00:39:45,230
The arts fund policy is that you're making recommendations to the city council whether you reject or approve

600
00:39:45,890 --> 00:39:48,750
whether you upvote or downvote, recommend or not, recommend.

601
00:39:49,290 --> 00:39:50,390
It's going to city council.

602
00:39:50,590 --> 00:39:51,870
They're the ones who are going to make the decision.

603
00:39:52,050 --> 00:39:53,350
They're the ones who are ultimately going to write.

604
00:39:54,410 --> 00:39:54,810
Jack?

605
00:39:56,030 --> 00:40:02,470
So someone on council will be the one to decide if it actually fits the hot fund

606
00:40:02,470 --> 00:40:02,810
criteria.

607
00:40:02,810 --> 00:40:08,290
It will take it through further before it goes to City Council as it goes.

608
00:40:08,470 --> 00:40:08,890
City Council makes the last approval, correct?

609
00:40:09,210 --> 00:40:09,430
I'm sorry?

610
00:40:09,770 --> 00:40:11,010
City Council makes the last approval.

611
00:40:11,330 --> 00:40:14,450
City Council makes the last approval on both of them.

612
00:40:14,450 --> 00:40:19,310
As I was saying, City Council, even though we're recommending everything, it goes to City Council

613
00:40:19,310 --> 00:40:21,110
and they make the final decision on all of these, correct?

614
00:40:21,410 --> 00:40:21,590
Yes.

615
00:40:21,790 --> 00:40:26,230
Per the policy, if you recommend or don't recommend, both are going to go.

616
00:40:27,330 --> 00:40:31,630
So, someone has to vet them before City Council gets to City Council.

617
00:40:32,030 --> 00:40:33,990
Someone's going to be...

618
00:40:33,990 --> 00:40:37,510
The city attorney is going to look at everything that's on the agenda.

619
00:40:38,190 --> 00:40:41,330
City management, the city attorney looks at everything that goes on the agenda

620
00:40:41,330 --> 00:40:42,630
before it goes to the City Council.

621
00:40:44,190 --> 00:40:45,030
I'm sorry.

622
00:40:45,610 --> 00:40:46,870
A question about our process.

623
00:40:47,290 --> 00:40:52,310
If we vote yesterday, after our consultation about all of them,

624
00:40:52,310 --> 00:40:58,610
Might we consider adjusting the totals based on what we've...

625
00:40:58,610 --> 00:40:59,990
You can make the most of it.

626
00:41:01,290 --> 00:41:03,610
Well, you may turn around and recommend something and say,

627
00:41:03,670 --> 00:41:05,930
hey, I approved them instead of $10,000.

628
00:41:06,230 --> 00:41:07,750
I think that we should approve them for $70,000.

629
00:41:08,170 --> 00:41:09,410
I understand that.

630
00:41:09,910 --> 00:41:13,370
But as we add up all this and we come to the end of it,

631
00:41:13,610 --> 00:41:16,830
is it possible to go back and make some adjustments?

632
00:41:17,310 --> 00:41:19,970
Or is it, once we vote on it, it's set.

633
00:41:20,270 --> 00:41:21,210
The amount is set.

634
00:41:21,210 --> 00:41:25,490
Well, I think by the time we get into this process, we're going to know exactly how much

635
00:41:25,490 --> 00:41:26,330
we're going to recommend.

636
00:41:27,290 --> 00:41:28,870
And so how do you guys want to do that?

637
00:41:29,190 --> 00:41:29,590
Do you want to?

638
00:41:30,390 --> 00:41:32,470
I mean, there's still a motion in the second on the table.

639
00:41:33,850 --> 00:41:37,690
Tim had mentioned creating yeas and nay stacks before we vote on it.

640
00:41:38,430 --> 00:41:43,290
I think we just, and this is just my humble opinion, I think as we're going through here,

641
00:41:43,990 --> 00:41:47,050
like some of these are going to be a little bit easier than others, right?

642
00:41:47,190 --> 00:41:49,910
Because they're kind of within the things that we've been talking about for the

643
00:41:49,910 --> 00:41:50,430
last few years.

644
00:41:50,430 --> 00:41:52,770
It's not like we're not prepared for this step.

645
00:41:53,410 --> 00:41:54,810
We have, we've taken three years,

646
00:41:54,970 --> 00:41:55,990
it's been almost three years, right?

647
00:41:56,390 --> 00:41:59,750
And so I think that for this process to make it easier,

648
00:42:00,110 --> 00:42:01,370
we can just go through them.

649
00:42:01,490 --> 00:42:03,350
And then if we recommend, if we didn't say,

650
00:42:03,470 --> 00:42:05,650
hey, I know they're asking for 2,000,

651
00:42:05,810 --> 00:42:08,850
but we are gonna, let's go for 65, right?

652
00:42:09,230 --> 00:42:10,770
Let's just do it on each application

653
00:42:10,770 --> 00:42:12,390
because I think that this isn't

654
00:42:12,390 --> 00:42:13,670
have to be a long-drawn process.

655
00:42:13,870 --> 00:42:15,490
I think that everyone's probably taking a look.

656
00:42:15,830 --> 00:42:17,090
And I think that we're going through them.

657
00:42:17,810 --> 00:42:18,830
Alex, the notes are awesome.

658
00:42:18,830 --> 00:42:20,850
So, you know, you'd be doing the most,

659
00:42:20,890 --> 00:42:22,610
so you're going to do absolutely, right?

660
00:42:22,810 --> 00:42:25,130
And so, but I think that this is like important, right?

661
00:42:26,230 --> 00:42:29,710
To, for us, to be able to see the visibility

662
00:42:29,710 --> 00:42:31,010
of our folks around the city.

663
00:42:31,510 --> 00:42:34,250
Because when Alex told us, I mean, for me,

664
00:42:34,310 --> 00:42:37,090
when Alex told us the map that we were working with

665
00:42:37,090 --> 00:42:41,210
to give them, I did just that for myself,

666
00:42:41,610 --> 00:42:47,290
made some adjustments to some of the grant request proposals.

667
00:42:47,290 --> 00:42:54,730
So for me, if I make a motion, I make change the amount, and then you all can vote it over there.

668
00:42:55,030 --> 00:42:55,310
Okay.

669
00:42:56,030 --> 00:42:57,750
And remember, we make motions in the positive.

670
00:43:00,410 --> 00:43:04,790
Art, do you want to, what's your, do you want to talk more about this?

671
00:43:05,470 --> 00:43:12,390
Well, I still think there needs to be the caveat of, he has put 41 inches by 14 inches,

672
00:43:12,390 --> 00:43:19,650
and we need to make sure legally that somebody checks the form because that's not a part of the policy for a size.

673
00:43:19,970 --> 00:43:22,190
No, but a policy in size.

674
00:43:22,410 --> 00:43:25,230
But we wouldn't do it with you.

675
00:43:25,430 --> 00:43:31,110
Well, I mean, I think it's safe to assume that 41 inches is not, it's safe to assume that.

676
00:43:31,110 --> 00:43:32,210
I just say little, legally.

677
00:43:32,670 --> 00:43:38,250
Yeah, but I think the main thing, I don't, this is just me, but I think that there is not a policy in size anyway.

678
00:43:39,010 --> 00:43:51,970
I would think that no one's making a 41-inch sentence outside of the wall in school, but I definitely get that, but I think that once, like, we approve this and it goes to City Council, right?

679
00:43:52,470 --> 00:43:55,170
The City Council would require certain things, correct?

680
00:43:56,870 --> 00:44:03,530
So say let's say this gets approved, Dallas. How does that work? The City Council would say, okay, we're going to say, okay, this gets approved.

681
00:44:03,950 --> 00:44:05,690
And then what is the next step of the process?

682
00:44:05,690 --> 00:44:16,670
So this is what I proposed to city management today is that for the August 5th meeting, I will bring to them the

683
00:44:18,690 --> 00:44:25,910
during the work of briefing session, the resolution so that they can have that in mind for the next August meeting.

684
00:44:26,390 --> 00:44:33,850
Then, based on your recommendations for or against, I am going to invite all 15 to come

685
00:44:33,850 --> 00:44:39,070
and to the briefings of presentations portion of the open part of the meeting, the regular

686
00:44:39,070 --> 00:44:39,430
meeting.

687
00:44:39,990 --> 00:44:44,110
I give them a two minutes to make a slideshow presentation and all of that.

688
00:44:44,950 --> 00:44:48,150
That will give an opportunity for any of your concerns.

689
00:44:48,770 --> 00:44:56,630
I mean, you can, I would think, add to your motion, I recommend, but you can always put

690
00:44:56,630 --> 00:44:59,970
but in a, but we want this or we want.

691
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:06,000
This address before it goes to council, or you can put in your thing that you want taken care of,

692
00:45:06,180 --> 00:45:10,780
but that'll give me a chance to say, when I reach out to it, to say, okay, you're going to the next

693
00:45:10,780 --> 00:45:14,040
step. I'm inviting you to do your two-minute elevator pitch.

694
00:45:16,720 --> 00:45:19,020
The arts commission was concerned about

695
00:45:19,020 --> 00:45:24,020
the measurements that you put on your thing, so that needs to be addressed before it goes to

696
00:45:24,020 --> 00:45:27,580
city council because that will be in the packet that city council will read. What do you all

697
00:45:27,580 --> 00:45:36,620
about that. Because my thought is the owner of the building who he is working with is going to want to

698
00:45:36,620 --> 00:45:37,920
do that.

699
00:45:43,620 --> 00:45:51,920
I know from my past experience if we could drink in that QR code, if we know that it's

700
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:55,660
If we move the link to the city, have things to do,

701
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:59,840
places to stay, then that checks that hotel's box.

702
00:46:00,260 --> 00:46:04,380
If the theater has a page, plan a trip and it's a link.

703
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,760
You click on it and it opens every hotel

704
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,720
in a different window, every place to stay

705
00:46:09,720 --> 00:46:11,460
with the way that you make the reservation.

706
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,440
And I haven't told, we've done our best,

707
00:46:14,580 --> 00:46:17,800
we've done our diligence to get people to like the team.

708
00:46:18,100 --> 00:46:20,840
So we can't guarantee, but you can't guarantee.

709
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,160
But your promoters are trying to promote the tourism.

710
00:46:23,620 --> 00:46:26,300
If that QR code, which I think is a cool thing,

711
00:46:26,720 --> 00:46:29,460
if that QR code, if that could be a stipulation,

712
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:31,520
as we're asking for the right dimensions,

713
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:35,540
we just need, we need, it must promote the hotel industry.

714
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,700
It must link to something, whether it's the cities

715
00:46:38,700 --> 00:46:39,960
or they can link to the theaters,

716
00:46:40,100 --> 00:46:41,800
they can link to something that says,

717
00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:43,360
here's where to stay and not be there.

718
00:46:43,420 --> 00:46:45,640
Do you want that included in the motion?

719
00:46:46,060 --> 00:46:47,920
I don't know how to do that, that's what he said.

720
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:53,480
He said we could add it to the motion and it would be okay, but I didn't think that that would cover everything then.

721
00:46:54,260 --> 00:46:55,380
So, there is a motion.

722
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,420
I have no idea what she's talking about.

723
00:47:02,580 --> 00:47:05,240
Do you know what she's talking about?

724
00:47:06,020 --> 00:47:07,960
Would you like to do what she's suggesting?

725
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:10,620
I always do what she suggests.

726
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:17,100
My motion and if I can accept it since I'm the maker of the motion.

727
00:47:17,100 --> 00:47:22,360
Yes, so I'll accept your amendment about adding the co-tempted QR code.

728
00:47:22,980 --> 00:47:26,340
And the stipulation size.

729
00:47:26,900 --> 00:47:28,320
So do you want it?

730
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:34,020
Can I ask that to be restated all the way through?

731
00:47:34,700 --> 00:47:35,760
You can ask.

732
00:47:37,020 --> 00:48:05,140
I'll make a motion that recommended to the city council that we fund the beacon of light arts projects in the amount of $3,000 with the caveat that the QR code and Q include hotel, links to hotels, and that we confirm the size of the mural.

733
00:48:05,140 --> 00:48:10,040
correct. Thank you. Does the second still stand?

734
00:48:14,100 --> 00:48:20,800
Is there any more discussion on that? If there's

735
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:25,440
no more discussion we'll take a vote. All in favor of the motion? Okay, please hold.

736
00:48:31,130 --> 00:48:32,830
I know, we just made a

737
00:48:45,430 --> 00:48:46,270
Okay,

738
00:48:55,030 --> 00:49:01,410
the next submission is brown girls to ballet photo project. It is a single project

739
00:49:01,410 --> 00:49:02,250
support grants.

740
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:08,180
The Project Summary, the Brunt Girls Do Battle A Photo Project, is a visual

741
00:49:08,180 --> 00:49:14,080
storytelling series by photographer Tequilla Wallace McMillan that highlights the strength,

742
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:20,040
grace, and identity of young dancers of color. Through portraits taken in Duncanville and surrounding

743
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:24,020
neighborhoods, the project captures dancers in both traditional and non-traditional spaces,

744
00:49:24,500 --> 00:49:28,340
centering them in a narrative where they are celebrated, visible, and empowered.

745
00:49:28,340 --> 00:49:37,880
The resulting images will be exhibited publicly to promote community pride, cultural reflection and expanded representation in the arts.

746
00:49:38,660 --> 00:49:42,660
Here is the budget that was submitted with it.

747
00:49:44,020 --> 00:49:46,040
And this breaks down the line items.

748
00:49:47,460 --> 00:49:51,620
Here is a photo from her work.

749
00:49:51,620 --> 00:49:55,960
And then if I've got a copy, it's not a great print,

750
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:59,280
but this is a sample of her work that can be passed around.

751
00:49:59,940 --> 00:50:03,680
So the total projected budget is 8,000,

752
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,460
and the requested amount is 3,000.

753
00:50:06,720 --> 00:50:10,420
And again, this is a single project support grant

754
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,680
with per your policy discussions

755
00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,360
that is funding limit up to $3,000

756
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:19,600
for a first time applicant.

757
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:23,160
and everybody's the first time out.

758
00:50:23,460 --> 00:50:24,500
So I have a question.

759
00:50:25,060 --> 00:50:31,160
Does it, I think that it seeks the promotion of the arts.

760
00:50:31,740 --> 00:50:33,220
I think it's over for study funding.

761
00:50:33,860 --> 00:50:36,020
Does it qualify under heads and necks?

762
00:50:37,060 --> 00:50:38,620
That's a question that I've run online.

763
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:39,140
What do you think?

764
00:50:40,100 --> 00:50:45,160
I gave it, when I was sort of braiding on tourism,

765
00:50:45,660 --> 00:50:48,800
I gave mine, that was my,

766
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,700
I'm not just a little bit down,

767
00:50:53,100 --> 00:50:57,640
but then I thought if she's having an exhibit here

768
00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:01,040
in Duckville, wherever the venue,

769
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:06,440
and she did take the 115th,

770
00:51:07,500 --> 00:51:08,600
where is that thing in?

771
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,020
In this dance group,

772
00:51:10,300 --> 00:51:13,240
this is the project for the 115th Ballet Girls,

773
00:51:13,780 --> 00:51:15,860
but anyways, they come from across

774
00:51:15,860 --> 00:51:19,980
was the various cities and so forth.

775
00:51:21,100 --> 00:51:24,980
And if they're doing an exhibit, I

776
00:51:24,980 --> 00:51:31,060
can see maybe possibly people coming in and seeing

777
00:51:31,060 --> 00:51:37,760
their relative or friends, child, in a photo exhibit.

778
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:42,040
And this could, I could see this possibly in the

779
00:51:44,500 --> 00:51:44,840
traveling

780
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,260
and he said it, and from what it done, he done it.

781
00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:54,080
Is this the one that was, this person is doing two things?

782
00:51:54,240 --> 00:51:57,440
It might not say this is the annual art program

783
00:51:58,000 --> 00:51:59,460
from October 4th to December,

784
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,880
because our policy says it can only act for one,

785
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:07,360
says that applicants may apply for one grant

786
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:08,400
for purpose for a year,

787
00:52:12,470 --> 00:52:14,450
two for the month and two.

788
00:52:16,020 --> 00:52:16,640
Well, isn't it?

789
00:52:36,230 --> 00:52:41,810
The difference is one is a single grant the other one is annual so what he's

790
00:52:41,810 --> 00:52:48,730
saying what's the rule on that because it's one applicant I thought was one

791
00:52:48,730 --> 00:53:00,250
So that above all of the categories, before you even get to the categories, the text, there is applicants may only apply for one grant per fiscal year.

792
00:53:01,110 --> 00:53:06,870
So the question is, she's applied for two grants, right?

793
00:53:08,830 --> 00:53:15,950
So the question is, we need to look at both of the grants at the same time and decide if we want to fund one or the other.

794
00:53:15,950 --> 00:53:17,670
because it cannot even be one of the other.

795
00:53:17,790 --> 00:53:20,210
Would you like me to skip forward to the other one real quick?

796
00:53:20,210 --> 00:53:21,330
Yes, so I think we skip to the other one.

797
00:53:21,950 --> 00:53:23,410
Can I speak to this one?

798
00:53:23,590 --> 00:53:24,210
Of course you can.

799
00:53:27,670 --> 00:53:28,470
Yeah, I...

800
00:53:28,470 --> 00:53:29,970
what this grant isn't for

801
00:53:29,970 --> 00:53:31,950
is for a specific...

802
00:53:32,690 --> 00:53:33,230
is that

803
00:53:34,110 --> 00:53:36,070
the grant is to pay the photographer

804
00:53:36,910 --> 00:53:38,130
or the way it's

805
00:53:38,130 --> 00:53:39,130
really got sound markets

806
00:53:39,670 --> 00:53:41,450
to give her funding so she can

807
00:53:41,450 --> 00:53:42,930
photograph these things.

808
00:53:42,930 --> 00:53:47,390
But it doesn't say, even though she has some linems here,

809
00:53:47,510 --> 00:53:52,490
it's not saying, do this for Congress before an exhibit in July.

810
00:53:52,970 --> 00:54:01,510
That's going to be, and so I can't see funding someone to beef up their portfolio or

811
00:54:01,510 --> 00:54:08,390
their stock exchange portfolio, but I can see if there's a specific exhibit involved.

812
00:54:08,950 --> 00:54:11,770
That's an event that could bring people into town.

813
00:54:12,690 --> 00:54:14,950
this is going to be displayed all around the city. That's installation.

814
00:54:18,010 --> 00:54:19,370
It's on incredible places.

815
00:54:19,370 --> 00:54:21,430
Yeah, it's on incredible places and public spaces.

816
00:54:23,610 --> 00:54:29,370
I just don't, I guess there was no, I guess maybe they're all over the day.

817
00:54:30,650 --> 00:54:31,050
Okay.

818
00:54:33,290 --> 00:54:37,470
And that's a little bit, listen, this is our first fun. This is their first fun.

819
00:54:37,470 --> 00:54:43,170
And so, I think what's going to happen after we do this is that we'll be able to say, okay,

820
00:54:43,270 --> 00:54:47,770
we need to get the lines in place so that they are more thorough next time.

821
00:54:47,910 --> 00:54:48,370
Write it down.

822
00:54:49,890 --> 00:54:51,390
But I think for the most part.

823
00:54:52,010 --> 00:54:56,750
Hey, Alex, did you go over the both, did you go over both applications for the workers?

824
00:54:58,530 --> 00:54:59,250
Not yet.

825
00:54:59,550 --> 00:55:05,450
The second one is to offer a weekly ballet classes for local youth age 4 to 12.

826
00:55:05,450 --> 00:55:14,770
So they don't go into empowerment through ballet the application is for an

827
00:55:14,770 --> 00:55:20,970
annual arts program grant which is for nonprofits from girls to ballet is

828
00:55:20,970 --> 00:55:25,030
expanding its empowerment through ballet community class program to Duncanville

829
00:55:25,030 --> 00:55:30,690
Texas to serve at-risk youth ages 4 to 12 with free ballet training this initiative

830
00:55:30,690 --> 00:55:33,910
uses dance as a tool to foster physical fitness emotional

831
00:55:33,910 --> 00:55:37,750
resilience and positive mentorship in underserved communities.

832
00:55:38,490 --> 00:55:43,530
Through accessible, high quality instruction and community support, the program helps young

833
00:55:43,530 --> 00:55:46,870
participants build confidence, discipline, and a sense of belonging.

834
00:55:47,690 --> 00:55:55,090
There is the list, the itemized list, total projected budget amount is $10,200,

835
00:55:57,220 --> 00:55:58,220
and then

836
00:55:58,220 --> 00:56:03,380
the total project budget, $10,200, and the requested amount is $5,000.

837
00:56:03,380 --> 00:56:16,740
offers. I could not see how this qualms by does not have to be here. Why not? To me it's a great

838
00:56:16,740 --> 00:56:24,800
thing for a non-profit to be doing. The organization is professional on it. They've got a good track

839
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:30,980
record, a good target degree, but it's very limited as far as engagement of anybody else

840
00:56:30,980 --> 00:56:40,060
and doesn't really talk about how much you have something here, but it doesn't talk about tourism at all.

841
00:56:41,100 --> 00:56:48,340
I would like to just add for consideration, they did submit that they are recognized as a 501c3, they are recognized as a nonprofit.

842
00:56:49,020 --> 00:56:50,740
Yeah, that's why for that it's good.

843
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:58,620
So this is something that we're all going to think about. We can really love a program. It seems like it's the best in the whole world.

844
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:01,480
But if it's not eligible, it's not eligible.

845
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:05,720
That's not an opinion on the eligibility of this.

846
00:57:05,860 --> 00:57:08,740
I'm just saying you have a program which are concerned, is it?

847
00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:11,960
So, let's look at these two grants.

848
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:16,620
Which of these two do you think is more eligible or more desired

849
00:57:16,620 --> 00:57:17,300
than the other?

850
00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:19,340
Does that revolve?

851
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:24,460
Can I talk about things I like about the both of them?

852
00:57:24,980 --> 00:57:26,980
And things that are kind of tricky, right?

853
00:57:26,980 --> 00:57:29,800
I think that what I did, like everyone I did,

854
00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:31,800
first of all, they have a huge presence

855
00:57:32,700 --> 00:57:34,640
and it's further, of course, than that can go.

856
00:57:35,140 --> 00:57:37,900
And so I think that that allows them to bring in more people.

857
00:57:38,420 --> 00:57:40,080
It's just like Ron said even earlier

858
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,400
with the art installation around town.

859
00:57:42,900 --> 00:57:45,500
I think that, you know, if I know my niece

860
00:57:45,500 --> 00:57:47,700
has got a L.A. picture up and down,

861
00:57:47,900 --> 00:57:48,980
y'all have some done, right?

862
00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:50,820
So I do think it drives tourism.

863
00:57:51,660 --> 00:57:55,620
I think far as the youth once again,

864
00:57:55,620 --> 00:57:58,020
And I always remember that we're supposed to have

865
00:57:58,020 --> 00:57:59,620
testing people, right?

866
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:01,240
And I think that's always good.

867
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:03,400
I think that it's also good that we're talking about it.

868
00:58:05,300 --> 00:58:08,180
Insighting the community to also for the other one

869
00:58:08,180 --> 00:58:10,080
is to provide some kind of programming

870
00:58:10,500 --> 00:58:13,660
from a 501c3 that promotes dance, right?

871
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:16,680
And to introduce our Indian people to dance

872
00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:18,600
at an early age, especially those people

873
00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:21,660
that are underserved or that may just

874
00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:23,900
not have none about another programming label.

875
00:58:23,900 --> 00:58:25,160
So I do like that.

876
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:29,040
I do think that for the programming,

877
00:58:29,500 --> 00:58:31,660
the valid programming for ages four to 12,

878
00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:35,240
I know that, I know the answer to that.

879
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:39,020
So I think it's a really good initiative.

880
00:58:39,740 --> 00:58:42,740
I'm not certain it fits directly into the guidelines

881
00:58:42,740 --> 00:58:44,000
of what we're trying to do,

882
00:58:44,260 --> 00:58:47,620
but I do think that a majority of it does.

883
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:49,700
So we know at this point

884
00:58:49,700 --> 00:58:52,040
that we have two different applications,

885
00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:55,840
one from the company and one from the owner.

886
00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:56,940
There's a difference, right?

887
00:58:57,980 --> 00:58:59,560
So the question becomes is,

888
00:59:00,260 --> 00:59:04,080
which one do we feel is more parallel

889
00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:07,280
to the restrictions and the requirements?

890
00:59:09,810 --> 00:59:12,910
I think that the one is really,

891
00:59:13,330 --> 00:59:14,230
well it's a wonderful endeavor.

892
00:59:14,490 --> 00:59:15,930
I don't know that I think it fits

893
00:59:15,930 --> 00:59:17,270
within the arts commission guidelines

894
00:59:17,270 --> 00:59:19,930
that the one that we're finding the dance

895
00:59:19,930 --> 00:59:21,690
to the question to find the dance itself,

896
00:59:22,110 --> 00:59:22,790
I think it's wonderful.

897
00:59:22,790 --> 00:59:28,790
I had some concerns about the photography one,

898
00:59:29,210 --> 00:59:31,190
only because I want something more specific.

899
00:59:31,790 --> 00:59:34,170
The resulting images will be set in an accessible community

900
00:59:34,170 --> 00:59:36,870
of locations, such as libraries, city buildings,

901
00:59:37,130 --> 00:59:37,630
and public events.

902
00:59:37,990 --> 00:59:40,350
I would have liked something to say more specifically.

903
00:59:41,450 --> 00:59:44,410
We have agreements with these, you know, there's nothing.

904
00:59:45,750 --> 00:59:47,490
We think we're going to do this,

905
00:59:47,550 --> 00:59:49,410
but we don't know that they're going to get permission

906
00:59:49,410 --> 00:59:50,270
to put it in places.

907
00:59:50,270 --> 00:59:52,490
I would have liked something more specific, at least.

908
00:59:52,850 --> 00:59:54,070
Like, we know what we're all going to be.

909
00:59:54,270 --> 00:59:54,750
We know that.

910
00:59:55,150 --> 00:59:58,130
I would like to know that we have an agreement

911
00:59:58,130 --> 00:59:59,550
or a bench on previous.

912
01:00:18,260 --> 01:00:28,320
I think that we definitely, as we're going through this to take those notes, you'll be able to say, like Ron said, so the next time, you know, I think these are all great things.

913
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:31,700
And I would love to know, what are the public spaces?

914
01:00:31,860 --> 01:00:33,700
However, we don't know if they haven't already

915
01:00:33,700 --> 01:00:34,920
had those relationships with them.

916
01:00:35,380 --> 01:00:39,000
I know that if you look on their website as well

917
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:43,020
as their social media, you'll see that they have

918
01:00:43,020 --> 01:00:43,860
their everywhere.

919
01:00:44,540 --> 01:00:46,880
So I think that, once again, we've just got to remember

920
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:48,880
there hasn't been any requirements that require them

921
01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:49,800
to tell us that.

922
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:52,220
So we can't really utilize that in the new group.

923
01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,340
Yeah, but we do have our policy,

924
01:00:54,460 --> 01:00:55,960
which says it has to come up to tourism.

925
01:00:55,960 --> 01:01:00,240
And I don't know, for me personally, that doesn't specifically tell me

926
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,100
that there's something that's untrue in this business.

927
01:01:02,220 --> 01:01:04,440
I mean, that's my interpretation of what they've stated.

928
01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:06,300
They've mentioned their policies.

929
01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:08,360
Angela, Matt?

930
01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:17,380
Actually, there are three grants from these people.

931
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,120
Because it's Brown Girls through ballet, Empowerment

932
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:24,020
through ballet, and the Journey Dance Center.

933
01:01:24,140 --> 01:01:26,480
They're all sort of interconnected.

934
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:34,140
that you can read of their journey for them journey and this is part of their

935
01:01:35,260 --> 01:01:40,540
they're all sort of interconnected the two owners and things like that so they

936
01:01:40,540 --> 01:01:51,760
asked for three different fun but they do have a when I look at it they do have

937
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:55,220
They have a good impact.

938
01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:58,500
What they're trying to do is bring the recital part,

939
01:01:58,940 --> 01:02:00,880
maybe here to Duckville, which I think is great,

940
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:02,100
because I always go to Dallas.

941
01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:03,840
And they said they're looking at a location.

942
01:02:04,380 --> 01:02:07,180
My concern was, when I looked at it,

943
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:12,120
is did they consider the school I torn,

944
01:02:12,420 --> 01:02:14,880
which is very nice and right down the street?

945
01:02:15,180 --> 01:02:16,260
I don't know if they ever did or not.

946
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:18,000
That's a question you can ask.

947
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:19,700
But they've always done it.

948
01:02:19,700 --> 01:02:24,680
But if they, for what they're doing in ballet is wonderful,

949
01:02:24,900 --> 01:02:25,920
I'd love to see ballet here.

950
01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:30,040
It would put people in hotels

951
01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:33,800
and they would come to see recitals and things like that.

952
01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:37,780
I know we have gone out of town

953
01:02:37,780 --> 01:02:41,380
just to see panel recitals of youth

954
01:02:41,380 --> 01:02:45,060
and things that, you know, that we're people

955
01:02:45,060 --> 01:02:48,720
that we know, and stayed at a hotel for that.

956
01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:51,280
So it does that.

957
01:02:51,860 --> 01:02:57,400
My thing is, I sort of was looking at all three of them

958
01:02:57,400 --> 01:03:02,820
somewhat together and then looked at reducing maybe

959
01:03:02,820 --> 01:03:06,340
the amount of them and just give them a request

960
01:03:06,340 --> 01:03:07,560
under one of the grants.

961
01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:09,500
That's interesting.

962
01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:11,520
What do y'all think about that?

963
01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:13,200
I'm sorry, Matt, but thanks for the report.

964
01:03:14,180 --> 01:03:17,320
Because they're interrelated or related,

965
01:03:18,140 --> 01:03:24,360
Out of the three, I think this one that's the Journey Dance Center is more in line with

966
01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:32,880
the Hot Fund's two-step and a recital of that size of magnitude sounds like it would be a

967
01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:34,020
great draw.

968
01:03:34,500 --> 01:03:35,220
If it was here.

969
01:03:35,740 --> 01:03:36,400
Yeah, more.

970
01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:38,300
Yeah, because it's down to the theater center.

971
01:03:38,460 --> 01:03:42,020
Yeah, because right now they've been doing it for 14 years.

972
01:03:42,660 --> 01:03:44,880
And I understand because it has to be done here.

973
01:03:45,100 --> 01:03:46,360
Yeah, it has to be done here.

974
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:53,960
right. So and I think that would be a big draw. And if we if we make that caveat that is in

975
01:03:53,960 --> 01:04:01,320
Dumpenville, then I wouldn't say fund multiple grants because we're not supposed to, but

976
01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:10,800
of the three, I think this one fits hot funds and our policy more in line. And so since

977
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:17,020
it's a beginning. So is that going to happen in Duckville? She says that they

978
01:04:17,020 --> 01:04:20,920
were looking for a Duckville location. Yeah, with our location being in

979
01:04:20,920 --> 01:04:25,300
Duckville, a lot of our students are from Duckville. Because it's only eligible

980
01:04:25,300 --> 01:04:31,040
if it's in Duckville. Right, so I think when we make a motion, if we want to do

981
01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:36,760
a caveat saying we would be willing to

982
01:04:42,860 --> 01:04:47,520
I'd like to ask something, just so it's on the record, is if you can go ahead and illustrate

983
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:49,080
the connection to Q3.

984
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:50,200
Okay.

985
01:04:51,000 --> 01:05:00,160
If you look at Brown Girls Do Ink, and you go and you look at the primary listed individual

986
01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:08,980
organizations are planning for XP in the project, you'll see Wallace McMillan and Metzger and Strong.

987
01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:17,260
Those are Metzger's journey dance center and Strong ground girls do the ink.

988
01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:26,960
So you see that in that form and you also see the same applicant's name on the grant.

989
01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:32,480
You know, she has a different address for the 3,000 one that we were looking at, for the pictures, the photos.

990
01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:37,600
And then when you look at her other one under Journey Dance,

991
01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:39,940
because the basic title at the end is,

992
01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:45,460
One of the individuals planning an executed project is Myanna Metzger.

993
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:50,260
And she's on, she did the application for Journey Dance.

994
01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:54,000
So they're all, all three are interrelated.

995
01:05:54,000 --> 01:06:06,460
And so I looked at that my thought was okay because we were having a limited amount of funding and so forth.

996
01:06:07,260 --> 01:06:08,400
Maybe I

997
01:06:11,730 --> 01:06:19,250
was going to recommend that we just give them one, maybe fund one and maybe not fund the whole thing.

998
01:06:21,910 --> 01:06:26,470
The journey dance center, I thought that that was where they

999
01:06:26,470 --> 01:06:28,990
The journey dance center is doing the recital.

1000
01:06:29,330 --> 01:06:31,570
Right, so I'm saying they're the recital.

1001
01:06:32,050 --> 01:06:33,470
That's the recital portion.

1002
01:06:34,130 --> 01:06:41,970
The single project, one to three thousand, one was for the photos

1003
01:06:41,970 --> 01:06:46,090
and then the other one, the other grant was for the practicing.

1004
01:06:46,490 --> 01:06:47,010
It's cool.

1005
01:06:47,390 --> 01:06:51,530
So if you look at this, on the resolution valet,

1006
01:06:51,530 --> 01:06:53,350
on the location on the second page,

1007
01:06:53,470 --> 01:06:54,850
it says the Journey to Dance Center.

1008
01:06:55,450 --> 01:06:56,590
So then it puts it together.

1009
01:06:56,590 --> 01:06:58,030
What does it mean they own the same thing?

1010
01:06:58,170 --> 01:06:59,590
No, they're all similar things.

1011
01:07:00,330 --> 01:07:01,250
But on the same reason.

1012
01:07:01,610 --> 01:07:03,510
It's just by partnering with the Journey to Dance Center.

1013
01:07:03,590 --> 01:07:05,530
What I'm saying is it doesn't say that.

1014
01:07:05,910 --> 01:07:07,930
Like, we don't know that Tequilla Wallace and Millen

1015
01:07:09,690 --> 01:07:11,170
owns the Journey to Dance Center.

1016
01:07:11,230 --> 01:07:12,810
That can be just like an example

1017
01:07:12,810 --> 01:07:14,590
there's programming at the library.

1018
01:07:14,590 --> 01:07:19,170
you see them saying this is like so I don't want to assume that just because

1019
01:07:19,170 --> 01:07:24,970
they're practicing like if there might be someone who owns the dance and that's

1020
01:07:24,970 --> 01:07:29,090
what they happen to be and they also apply so I don't want to assume because

1021
01:07:29,750 --> 01:07:34,750
there are two different names or two different addresses so I didn't think

1022
01:07:36,430 --> 01:07:40,750
Yeah, but the photographer is the one who's applying for the...

1023
01:07:41,290 --> 01:07:44,370
The photographer says she will collaborate with the Journey Dancers.

1024
01:07:45,050 --> 01:07:45,170
Right.

1025
01:07:45,330 --> 01:07:46,510
So that's why it's in her name.

1026
01:07:46,830 --> 01:07:47,930
So that's what I'm saying.

1027
01:07:48,130 --> 01:07:49,970
And it's just because they...

1028
01:07:49,970 --> 01:07:51,070
Like if I turn...

1029
01:07:51,070 --> 01:07:53,210
Mac has a business and I have a business and you have a business.

1030
01:07:53,530 --> 01:07:56,430
And I said, oh my God, our commission has this thing.

1031
01:07:56,450 --> 01:07:58,710
And we already worked together because I'm the...

1032
01:07:58,710 --> 01:07:59,590
You know, I'm the dancer.

1033
01:07:59,790 --> 01:08:00,790
I'm the best dancer in the world.

1034
01:08:01,130 --> 01:08:02,430
And I'm practicing at his facility.

1035
01:08:02,430 --> 01:08:07,610
and she's the one selling notepad right and she hasn't looked in the world right

1036
01:08:07,610 --> 01:08:12,670
that so what I'm just saying is is just because we're off that facility does not

1037
01:08:12,670 --> 01:08:16,770
mean that we have partnership in those businesses so I think that we can't

1038
01:08:16,770 --> 01:08:20,810
assume I didn't assume that that I saw the similarities that I didn't assume

1039
01:08:20,810 --> 01:08:27,630
that my out of Mexico is the same person that's doing things are they so

1040
01:08:27,630 --> 01:08:30,190
So, Brown Girls Do Magic, do ballet.

1041
01:08:30,890 --> 01:08:31,610
What?

1042
01:08:33,610 --> 01:08:33,990
Next season.

1043
01:08:34,430 --> 01:08:35,990
Last, last time was long.

1044
01:08:39,390 --> 01:08:46,090
BrownGirlsDoBallet.com, listed on the team, T'Keeo Wallace McMillan is the founder and

1045
01:08:46,090 --> 01:08:55,970
executive director, Miata Metzger is not listed on that website, going over to TheJourneyDanceCenter.com,

1046
01:08:55,970 --> 01:09:02,490
going to the about the founder and odor is not a plan again at the that is her

1047
01:09:02,490 --> 01:09:10,410
full name as per the email comment that's in her name and nobody from

1048
01:09:12,970 --> 01:09:19,070
from girls ballet is mentioned on this website so okay so and I was wrong so we

1049
01:09:19,070 --> 01:09:21,710
I only have two from the young lady with Mellon,

1050
01:09:22,830 --> 01:09:23,950
and that's her.

1051
01:09:24,530 --> 01:09:27,390
She just happens to be utilizing her facility.

1052
01:09:27,710 --> 01:09:28,590
That's what it looks like.

1053
01:09:28,730 --> 01:09:32,250
Because when I read each one, it seemed like, okay,

1054
01:09:32,850 --> 01:09:36,390
we've got the photo shoot, we've got the training,

1055
01:09:36,930 --> 01:09:39,650
and then once we've finished the dance training,

1056
01:09:39,730 --> 01:09:41,630
then we're going to do the side-off.

1057
01:09:41,890 --> 01:09:42,490
That's the way it looks.

1058
01:09:42,490 --> 01:09:44,350
I look like, to me, that they've all just applied.

1059
01:09:44,990 --> 01:09:45,270
Right?

1060
01:09:45,650 --> 01:09:48,130
But I do think that's Key of Wallace with Mellon

1061
01:09:48,130 --> 01:09:57,790
and Brown girls do ballet because it's Brown's project. I don't know because he

1062
01:09:57,790 --> 01:09:58,890
seems like she's photographer.

1063
01:10:03,670 --> 01:10:08,850
Right so but when we go over to a journey dance that

1064
01:10:08,850 --> 01:10:13,250
the for their cycles I don't think that they're related now they may practice

1065
01:10:13,250 --> 01:10:19,050
there but I don't remember online when I looked that they were the same company at

1066
01:10:19,050 --> 01:10:23,810
all so I'm not to say they're the same company or different companies are

1067
01:10:23,810 --> 01:10:30,090
different organizations yeah they seem like they were related to me there was a

1068
01:10:30,090 --> 01:10:34,870
relationship but that's fine yeah so the journey of the incident though that's

1069
01:10:34,870 --> 01:10:39,450
the actual dance and requesting grant right that's not the same thing as the

1070
01:10:39,450 --> 01:10:44,750
photographer because we know this is a photographer project okay and then we have

1071
01:10:44,750 --> 01:10:48,810
a ballet project so these are three different things right right so they're

1072
01:10:48,810 --> 01:10:56,050
not the same people I think that now with the brown we need to figure out

1073
01:10:56,050 --> 01:11:03,910
these two people these two applications yes yes yeah because she is listed on

1074
01:11:04,930 --> 01:11:09,870
SomeSweetPhoto.com as the owner, and she is also on...

1075
01:11:09,870 --> 01:11:10,970
Yes, because I thought she was both, right.

1076
01:11:11,570 --> 01:11:13,750
But this one, I didn't feel like this was the same thing.

1077
01:11:14,050 --> 01:11:15,170
I think this is just the facility.

1078
01:11:15,590 --> 01:11:18,070
And she probably told her, you need to find this or don't this or whatever.

1079
01:11:18,430 --> 01:11:19,250
But I didn't see it.

1080
01:11:19,330 --> 01:11:21,290
I don't remember looking at them.

1081
01:11:21,910 --> 01:11:23,230
I think she's probably trying to find it.

1082
01:11:24,690 --> 01:11:28,010
So Wallace McMillan and Bromgrove DuVallet are the same rooms.

1083
01:11:28,550 --> 01:11:30,390
And the Journey Dance Center is the facility.

1084
01:11:31,150 --> 01:11:31,450
Yes.

1085
01:11:32,250 --> 01:11:32,890
Is that where we're going?

1086
01:11:32,890 --> 01:11:36,370
Yes. Really good grants administrators here all the time.

1087
01:11:37,550 --> 01:11:40,390
Alright, so let's talk about it. What do you want to do with these?

1088
01:11:44,540 --> 01:11:46,680
Well, I feel a way to go to the nonprofit.

1089
01:11:47,780 --> 01:11:53,180
I mean, that's one of the things that I'm trying to develop a cultural center or a cultural district is, you know, to encourage nonprofits.

1090
01:11:54,960 --> 01:12:00,850
It feels like photography is

1091
01:12:05,780 --> 01:12:06,540
more like marketing

1092
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:12,660
and then pop up with some kind of show to say.

1093
01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:20,700
It really feels like they're on site because all this cool stuff, take a lot of photos and maybe display it.

1094
01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:23,120
Put the photos up because it's not contest.

1095
01:12:23,500 --> 01:12:26,000
It's just you're displaying 50s marketing.

1096
01:12:26,260 --> 01:12:27,440
You're marketing your studio.

1097
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:28,640
You're making it very marketing.

1098
01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:38,540
So if your field is a little more key to that, especially if they're related to the non-profit in that sense, it's not bad.

1099
01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:52,640
So as far as the recital, I think that if we can guarantee it's something that I'm going for, because that would bring people into non-profit based on...

1100
01:12:55,740 --> 01:13:03,360
side of one to the side. So which one's a nonprofit? The BioPropery and the

1101
01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:09,360
Ballet programming, the programming grant. I like that one. Let me tell you why.

1102
01:13:09,860 --> 01:13:13,540
I think that there's a couple things. First of all, I think it's going to

1103
01:13:13,540 --> 01:13:17,940
bring in people from around the best Southwest because when you look at

1104
01:13:17,940 --> 01:13:22,380
programming, an example, let's say golf. When my center started playing golf, there was

1105
01:13:22,380 --> 01:13:25,600
no golf around here. Like there was no programming, there was no practice, there

1106
01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:26,920
there was no nothing, right?

1107
01:13:27,140 --> 01:13:30,300
And so I think that what happened is

1108
01:13:30,300 --> 01:13:32,480
is we had to go to cities nearby, right?

1109
01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:34,940
And so I think that first of all,

1110
01:13:35,060 --> 01:13:36,560
we have a 501 CT category.

1111
01:13:37,120 --> 01:13:39,180
And I think it really adequately

1112
01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:44,960
it empowers the artists like in a different form.

1113
01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:47,560
And I think it's the ballets for anyone, right?

1114
01:13:48,120 --> 01:13:49,780
So I do agree with Tim there that

1115
01:13:49,780 --> 01:13:52,280
if I had to make a decision as far as installation

1116
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:54,760
versus programming,

1117
01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:58,300
I mean I think the programming can attract people from other cities and it

1118
01:13:58,300 --> 01:14:02,780
may even be something that people will travel for and be able to spend money in

1119
01:14:02,780 --> 01:14:07,800
our cities whether here waiting on their kids during class and stuff like that or

1120
01:14:07,800 --> 01:14:10,820
if there was a recital or something they would be something they would be able to say

1121
01:14:10,820 --> 01:14:13,860
oh we're going to spend the night we're going to make the day of it or we're going to have to do something.

1122
01:14:13,900 --> 01:14:19,120
I agree because I think like even other like sports like people travel all the way

1123
01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:25,400
McKinney or Frisco to go and do soccer things. And for me, I mean, from my knowledge, it's

1124
01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:31,100
pretty unique, especially, you know, Brown Roads to the Ballet, like it, it, I guess like

1125
01:14:31,100 --> 01:14:35,700
brings out other cultures and other people to be interested. And when you have kids,

1126
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:40,160
you have families, you have families, they want to do things and they want to be convenient.

1127
01:14:40,380 --> 01:14:45,340
So if they're already here in Duncanville, I feel like there's more likely that they'll

1128
01:14:45,340 --> 01:14:50,720
stay or they'll come around and see what we have to offer. The photo thing I kind of tend to agree

1129
01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:55,640
with Tim. Like I think it's more of a marketing thing. I think it's so cool though. Those pictures

1130
01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:59,920
look amazing. But I just think it needs to be reworked on how

1131
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:15,960
It could bring towards a, maybe if it was a game, like people had to come do some sort of scavenger hunt or something, or I don't know, like, maybe there's a QR code with it, or it was representing what that facility was and everything that they had to do there, why you should come and say, I don't know.

1132
01:15:16,060 --> 01:15:21,940
But I think that needs to be reworked, but the, if I had to vote, I'll vote for the ground girls to ballet as well.

1133
01:15:22,600 --> 01:15:29,780
And I think what we ask, the tendency would be is that we are provided as a part of that marketing.

1134
01:15:30,660 --> 01:15:33,760
I think BAC should be a partner. I'm presumed as a partner.

1135
01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:37,620
And that makes this a good thing. We're providing balance for the youth.

1136
01:15:41,060 --> 01:15:43,140
Fred, would you call it friendly?

1137
01:15:43,460 --> 01:15:44,740
We haven't. We haven't. We haven't.

1138
01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:46,460
We haven't. We haven't.

1139
01:15:47,860 --> 01:15:49,680
Sorry, Matt, you guys here.

1140
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:56,160
The thing that I keep it in my head against is the hotel name.

1141
01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:05,540
And while the photographs are good, if there was an event where there was a, you know,

1142
01:16:05,780 --> 01:16:12,840
a easel's up for a couple of days or something where it's an event, I could see that.

1143
01:16:14,500 --> 01:16:35,720
But also the ballet, while it fits our annual arts program grant, it doesn't fit because the hot thing here says educational class or similar type of event is not likely to attract tourists and hotel guests.

1144
01:16:37,020 --> 01:16:50,980
Yes, you might have weekly soccer games, but you're not going to stay the night at the soccer practice or the soccer game necessarily, so I think that might be harder.

1145
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:55,540
Maybe I'm just stuck in my head because somebody else is going to decide if it's heads of beds.

1146
01:16:55,540 --> 01:17:00,120
Well, it's worth mentioning that there have been discussions of city council and city council

1147
01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:05,740
breakings in this about how much weight is put into the heads and heads part.

1148
01:17:07,340 --> 01:17:11,440
But we don't have policy. We have a policy on this, but we don't have a right.

1149
01:17:12,780 --> 01:17:22,520
Yeah, and I agree with Matt to an extent, but I also think that I think we don't ever bring anything diverse to the community to say, hey, listen,

1150
01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:24,760
And guess what, they have ballet or whatever.

1151
01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:28,120
And I think we want things that are going to attract people

1152
01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:30,120
to come to our city, even if it's first vacation,

1153
01:17:30,660 --> 01:17:34,960
even if we recommend, hey, with this programming,

1154
01:17:35,320 --> 01:17:38,780
and that you're doing is when you're doing your final project,

1155
01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:41,200
when you're doing what do they call it?

1156
01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:46,380
Showtime, you know, whatever they're doing on that final,

1157
01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:49,180
what's the ballet class, is everything you have to do.

1158
01:17:49,260 --> 01:17:49,800
Yeah, I've never thought about it.

1159
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:50,320
Yeah.

1160
01:17:50,580 --> 01:17:55,240
We would turn around and say, you know, we can suggest them, hey, you know, you should

1161
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:59,560
provide, get with the hotels and like, provide a stay overnight stay package.

1162
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:00,100
You know what I mean?

1163
01:18:00,380 --> 01:18:03,420
So, like, just even with some events and stuff, you do a lot of them.

1164
01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:07,240
They might be only one day events, but they're two-day because they're not going to be

1165
01:18:07,240 --> 01:18:08,980
agreed on that Friday night or what have you.

1166
01:18:09,100 --> 01:18:13,840
So, I kind of think that it definitely can attract tours because you have kids.

1167
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:16,300
People can come to see the babies in May.

1168
01:18:16,720 --> 01:18:16,960
Right.

1169
01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:19,860
And if you look at her budget, she does have a showcase.

1170
01:18:20,660 --> 01:18:22,920
She had put it in her budget to have a showcase.

1171
01:18:23,420 --> 01:18:25,060
So I think that maybe we're going to do it

1172
01:18:25,060 --> 01:18:26,240
and culminate to the end.

1173
01:18:26,340 --> 01:18:28,960
Yeah, that's probably this journey.

1174
01:18:31,220 --> 01:18:34,180
Maybe this ends in December, so maybe not.

1175
01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:36,000
No, this is the recital.

1176
01:18:36,340 --> 01:18:38,200
Yeah, the recital is not till May.

1177
01:18:39,260 --> 01:18:42,740
This particular one ends in December 20th.

1178
01:18:42,740 --> 01:18:43,560
This is 4 to 12.

1179
01:18:43,860 --> 01:18:44,420
That's 2 to 18.

1180
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:49,260
So, yeah, on this one, it was in December, so she may have a Christmas.

1181
01:18:49,440 --> 01:18:51,260
She's suddenly, I don't know, but she is not sure.

1182
01:18:51,260 --> 01:18:53,140
But I do think that they should doubt for no good.

1183
01:18:55,020 --> 01:18:56,460
So, I'm not going to be emotional.

1184
01:18:57,380 --> 01:18:58,100
But he's going to.

1185
01:18:58,360 --> 01:18:58,840
I'm sorry.

1186
01:18:59,060 --> 01:18:59,600
I'm sorry, Tim.

1187
01:18:59,740 --> 01:19:00,200
I'm sorry.

1188
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:01,000
It's okay.

1189
01:19:01,940 --> 01:19:06,780
So the, you know, when I saw the budget, I think for the recital, I think what

1190
01:19:06,780 --> 01:19:08,520
kind of stepped it out is like.

1191
01:19:08,660 --> 01:19:09,180
We're not on the recital.

1192
01:19:09,180 --> 01:19:09,800
We're not on the recital.

1193
01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:13,640
We're not on the recital.

1194
01:19:14,520 --> 01:19:15,980
I don't know why this is so confusing.

1195
01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:19,240
Sorry, Tim.

1196
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:21,800
When we get to your side, we're going to let you cook.

1197
01:19:22,020 --> 01:19:24,220
When we get to your side, we're going to let you talk.

1198
01:19:26,480 --> 01:19:27,820
I do have a showcase.

1199
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:31,060
But my concern and what it's going to be,

1200
01:19:31,340 --> 01:19:33,480
and what it's going to attract,

1201
01:19:34,100 --> 01:19:37,440
it says culminating showcase in parentheses, low cost,

1202
01:19:37,600 --> 01:19:38,760
and studio event.

1203
01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:45,900
So, I'm not sure that that makes it such a broad thing that would be a good thing to do that.

1204
01:19:46,660 --> 01:19:47,960
I don't want it to.

1205
01:19:50,300 --> 01:19:52,260
I'm the budget back there on the last page.

1206
01:19:53,220 --> 01:19:55,180
Low cost in the studio event.

1207
01:19:55,620 --> 01:19:58,360
What do you mean?

1208
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:00,620
The next to the last line on the budget.

1209
01:20:01,220 --> 01:20:02,400
It says culminating the showcase.

1210
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:03,540
We're learning about the showcase.

1211
01:20:03,980 --> 01:20:05,840
Is it a low cost in the studio event?

1212
01:20:05,840 --> 01:20:12,180
Well, it's an in-studio event, so it's not necessarily a track match for us.

1213
01:20:12,660 --> 01:20:13,680
Why would you think that?

1214
01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:17,180
Well, the studios aren't big enough to then add them inside out.

1215
01:20:17,180 --> 01:20:21,280
How big is the studio? Do you have any details? Do you have those details?

1216
01:20:21,600 --> 01:20:22,640
No, I don't have those details.

1217
01:20:22,740 --> 01:20:24,400
No, I'm just asking you.

1218
01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:27,600
No, I'm doing it the way that she carry on.

1219
01:20:27,600 --> 01:20:30,120
The studio is kind of like the journey dance center.

1220
01:20:31,140 --> 01:20:38,760
Okay, so I think that once again we don't have requirements, so I don't feel like we should be utilizing that for...

1221
01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:40,340
And things may change by the time.

1222
01:20:40,480 --> 01:20:41,900
Right, I mean, like, yeah.

1223
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:44,140
We may have other locations that she may find.

1224
01:20:44,140 --> 01:20:51,660
We may have other locations she may get real big, but I think the main thing is, is that one of our requirements for our arts grant application is not.

1225
01:20:52,140 --> 01:20:54,360
So I don't think we should utilize that information.

1226
01:21:05,100 --> 01:21:09,200
She says in the past, our show has been held at the Dallas Children's Theater.

1227
01:21:10,900 --> 01:21:14,480
Are you looking at the, sorry, the journey dance?

1228
01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:15,200
Yeah.

1229
01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:16,820
Are you at the recital?

1230
01:21:17,740 --> 01:21:19,540
You and Tim want to be at the recital so bad.

1231
01:21:20,720 --> 01:21:23,200
We don't get that right next to you.

1232
01:21:24,740 --> 01:21:25,160
Okay.

1233
01:21:26,740 --> 01:21:29,780
Okay, so I'll do it two ways.

1234
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:30,900
Okay, I'll do the first one.

1235
01:21:32,980 --> 01:21:36,600
If we look at the one that's an individual artist

1236
01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:37,880
that we started off with,

1237
01:21:37,980 --> 01:21:39,920
it's a high and long one.

1238
01:21:40,860 --> 01:21:43,000
The photography one, that's what I'm looking at.

1239
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:51,880
Okay. So I'd like to make a motion recommending that we do not, the city council doesn't do that.

1240
01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:53,140
Because we've done the most positive.

1241
01:21:53,960 --> 01:21:57,240
So if you can make the motion on the positive then we have to go forward and we don't.

1242
01:21:57,500 --> 01:21:57,800
Okay.

1243
01:21:58,720 --> 01:21:59,700
Okay, so.

1244
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:03,380
Because of the fact that you could download it.

1245
01:22:04,660 --> 01:22:05,120
Okay.

1246
01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:12,380
So make a motion that we fund the...

1247
01:22:12,380 --> 01:22:14,960
Do we have to make a motion on every single application?

1248
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:18,280
I would really like it if you would do it.

1249
01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:22,140
I would really like it if you do it because this is going to go before council and I'd like to have to.

1250
01:22:22,280 --> 01:22:24,440
So you want us to make recommendations to fund and then we vote it down?

1251
01:22:26,060 --> 01:22:33,560
So like last night, if you are all, I'm trying not to taint the vote.

1252
01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:39,760
So if you are all in a, well, no, it doesn't even matter if you're all,

1253
01:22:39,760 --> 01:22:41,660
If you make the motion in the positive,

1254
01:22:42,620 --> 01:22:46,480
each person can vote yes in affirmative of that,

1255
01:22:47,240 --> 01:22:48,540
making that motion go forward,

1256
01:22:48,800 --> 01:22:51,080
or no against that motion.

1257
01:22:51,900 --> 01:22:55,100
So that puts it in a place where it's the majority.

1258
01:22:55,420 --> 01:22:59,060
So if you do the motions in the same way.

1259
01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:01,140
Someone to help, some of the helpful folks for that

1260
01:23:01,140 --> 01:23:02,960
is last night city council member,

1261
01:23:03,020 --> 01:23:04,820
council member Mack Burnett said,

1262
01:23:05,100 --> 01:23:06,540
we always make motions in the positive.

1263
01:23:06,540 --> 01:23:08,940
when that group got there first.

1264
01:23:09,220 --> 01:23:12,280
I make a motion recommending that the City Council fund

1265
01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:19,920
the ground rules to violate photo project

1266
01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:22,900
and the amount of $3,000.

1267
01:23:23,980 --> 01:23:24,740
Is there a second?

1268
01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:25,220
Second.

1269
01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:27,400
All those in favor?

1270
01:23:28,020 --> 01:23:29,460
Any questions on that?

1271
01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:29,940
Sorry.

1272
01:23:30,360 --> 01:23:30,780
Any discussion?

1273
01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:33,180
All those in favor?

1274
01:23:38,930 --> 01:23:39,750
All those against.

1275
01:23:40,530 --> 01:23:41,210
All opposed?

1276
01:23:50,020 --> 01:23:56,380
You know, it would, it would, oh, this is going to be a policy thing everyone, it's going to go my nose for next time.

1277
01:23:59,420 --> 01:24:00,340
Almost there.

1278
01:24:01,260 --> 01:24:02,060
Thank you.

1279
01:24:05,940 --> 01:24:06,420
Do

1280
01:24:10,330 --> 01:24:11,170
you want to take motion?

1281
01:24:13,650 --> 01:24:27,750
I'd like to make a motion to recommend that the City Council fund Brown Girls do a Brown Girls do ballet project in the amount of $5,000.

1282
01:24:29,470 --> 01:24:30,550
Second on the motion.

1283
01:24:30,550 --> 01:24:31,350
Second the motion.

1284
01:24:31,830 --> 01:24:32,770
That's why it's seconded.

1285
01:24:32,870 --> 01:24:35,330
We have a motion and a second discussion on it.

1286
01:24:59,070 --> 01:25:00,950
So the non-profit, which is the ballot,

1287
01:25:03,590 --> 01:25:06,230
is asking for money so that they can run this space

1288
01:25:06,230 --> 01:25:09,650
that you began sending them to do their classes.

1289
01:25:12,010 --> 01:25:15,430
And they can hire, they're going to pay someone to coordinate.

1290
01:25:18,960 --> 01:25:23,820
And they can also pay instructors for part

1291
01:25:26,700 --> 01:25:27,060
of it.

1292
01:25:36,500 --> 01:25:41,240
For eligible uses, for non-profit, for operations, production,

1293
01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:45,100
part of schemes, any other questions

1294
01:25:52,520 --> 01:25:52,980
on this?

1295
01:25:53,100 --> 01:25:54,180
There's a motion and a second.

1296
01:25:57,820 --> 01:25:59,460
All in favor of the motion?

1297
01:26:00,720 --> 01:26:01,120
There's your move.

1298
01:26:01,660 --> 01:26:01,760
I'm

1299
01:26:16,130 --> 01:26:18,430
going to be minus 4, 7, 30, so we don't have an R&L.

1300
01:26:19,530 --> 01:26:21,730
No one said 9, so I'm already out.

1301
01:26:21,730 --> 01:26:23,250
Oh, I should have known.

1302
01:26:24,270 --> 01:26:24,710
OK.

1303
01:26:27,070 --> 01:26:27,850
All those opposed?

1304
01:26:45,940 --> 01:26:49,200
You voted in favor, okay, thank you.

1305
01:26:54,180 --> 01:26:59,530
Is there a motion for journey dancer?

1306
01:27:05,410 --> 01:27:09,490
You're about to sit all over the place. I put these in order. I'm sorry, I'm just...

1307
01:27:15,970 --> 01:27:22,320
Okay, the next one, yes, is... just shoveled me.

1308
01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:30,180
The next one is Duckville Paws and Paint. It is submitted as an annual arts program grant,

1309
01:27:30,180 --> 01:27:37,720
which has a funding limit of up to $20,000, eligibility requires a 501C-3 non-profit arts

1310
01:27:37,720 --> 01:27:44,360
organization, the Project Summary, a dog-friendly outdoor art party featuring pet themed activities,

1311
01:27:44,540 --> 01:27:50,020
local artist's food, vendors, and fundraiser stations at Rotary Park kicking off a new

1312
01:27:50,020 --> 01:27:52,000
dog park annual after that.

1313
01:27:54,040 --> 01:27:59,400
The total project budget is $10,000, the requested amount is $10,000.

1314
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:02,260
Alex, would you read the part of the policy about the annual?

1315
01:28:03,420 --> 01:28:07,160
Because, refresh my thinking, because I think of that as an arts series,

1316
01:28:07,400 --> 01:28:09,120
like what you might have in the theater or the symphony.

1317
01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:14,740
One, annual arts program grants purpose to support non-profit organizations

1318
01:28:14,740 --> 01:28:17,100
presenting a full season of arts programming.

1319
01:28:18,100 --> 01:28:21,220
Eligibility 501c, three non-profit arts organizations,

1320
01:28:21,360 --> 01:28:25,440
funding limit up to $20,000, eligible uses, operations,

1321
01:28:25,440 --> 01:28:31,600
production, artist fees, venue rental, requirement must occur in Duncanville and serve a public purpose.

1322
01:28:32,360 --> 01:28:36,040
Acknowledgement, city and or commissioned logo must appear in all marketing.

1323
01:28:36,420 --> 01:28:39,380
So as I hear that an annual series is not an annual event.

1324
01:28:40,060 --> 01:28:42,380
So a series would be something like the theatre does.

1325
01:28:42,540 --> 01:28:45,100
Right, so the season of events here would be...

1326
01:28:47,980 --> 01:28:50,800
It's not a state. This is the one that has not had a budget.

1327
01:28:51,140 --> 01:28:56,140
That's why I think that I should not find a specific...

1328
01:28:56,140 --> 01:28:58,580
Is this about the arts or is this about the dog part?

1329
01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:01,540
I was going to bring up the dog part.

1330
01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:05,400
But I think about the, I think, well, they're promoting the dog part,

1331
01:29:05,820 --> 01:29:07,200
they're promoting the dog part.

1332
01:29:07,900 --> 01:29:10,900
And they're utilizing an arts promotion.

1333
01:29:11,800 --> 01:29:12,980
Arts is a way to promote art.

1334
01:29:13,220 --> 01:29:13,380
Yes.

1335
01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:17,240
And I think that it's a family of, a family of people, right?

1336
01:29:17,860 --> 01:29:20,220
People's pets are a part of their family.

1337
01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:23,860
And I think that it also, I don't know,

1338
01:29:23,860 --> 01:29:24,760
I really like this one.

1339
01:29:26,040 --> 01:29:29,220
I think that community engagement is important.

1340
01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:32,320
It's one of our, once again, I'm gonna go refer back

1341
01:29:32,320 --> 01:29:35,040
to our comprehensive plan and community engagement.

1342
01:29:35,240 --> 01:29:37,880
We're supposed to be pillars of, you know,

1343
01:29:37,980 --> 01:29:40,700
we're up here basically providing community

1344
01:29:40,700 --> 01:29:43,380
engagement opportunities and that's open to everybody.

1345
01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:45,740
And so I think that this is a great,

1346
01:29:47,820 --> 01:29:50,620
it's a great way for you to be able to get out and say,

1347
01:29:50,620 --> 01:29:56,680
Hey, come down here and you know do some art with us, you know all of a sudden. I think that's cute

1348
01:29:58,100 --> 01:29:58,560
So

1349
01:30:01,760 --> 01:30:17,260
I love that, and I love Roger. But my question was, would you read, because I want us to talk about that line in the policy, because the policy reads to me that it has to be annual series. That's how I read it. Can you read it here for the record?

1350
01:30:17,400 --> 01:30:18,120
A full season.

1351
01:30:18,440 --> 01:30:25,880
A full season. So a season, this is an annual event, a season would be like the symptom has a season.

1352
01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:50,800
We don't have a budget, so we don't know what they're going to do in the $10,000 per state, is there a budget somewhere today?

1353
01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:53,460
what you get, what you saw is what you got.

1354
01:30:53,460 --> 01:30:56,720
Yeah, they just, to me, they're not what they did.

1355
01:30:57,120 --> 01:30:59,440
It's $10,000, they just want $10,000, that was it.

1356
01:30:59,660 --> 01:31:02,620
But I like the whole, I like the event.

1357
01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:06,760
I just wasn't getting one.

1358
01:31:07,540 --> 01:31:09,360
But it's higher than $10,000.

1359
01:31:09,900 --> 01:31:11,180
Well, so the-

1360
01:31:11,180 --> 01:31:14,180
Because Rotary has money, Tri-City has money,

1361
01:31:14,940 --> 01:31:17,840
they, everybody likes a little pop, pop.

1362
01:31:19,660 --> 01:31:21,980
And we've got our pockets all the time for them.

1363
01:31:22,040 --> 01:31:27,720
Well, I'm even wondering if it's identified correctly, because if it's once a year, that's an event.

1364
01:31:28,600 --> 01:31:33,120
If they were going to do this like a season, like you'd have the symphony, then I think it would apply to the...

1365
01:31:33,120 --> 01:31:38,760
I'm not sure it applies by the way that Alex just wrote in the policy. That's my reply.

1366
01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:44,960
A series, a season, is you're going to go and you're going to see...

1367
01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:46,320
if you're going to go to the opera,

1368
01:31:46,440 --> 01:31:47,900
there's going to be five operas in a season.

1369
01:31:49,120 --> 01:31:52,440
But the question is, is the season defined as that

1370
01:31:52,440 --> 01:31:53,540
as a requirement?

1371
01:31:53,940 --> 01:31:56,480
Like, isn't a season or because you

1372
01:31:56,480 --> 01:32:01,000
can have one thing a season, and that's your annual season

1373
01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:01,480
on event?

1374
01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:03,280
So I don't know.

1375
01:32:03,920 --> 01:32:06,340
Just considering a full season of arts programming,

1376
01:32:06,740 --> 01:32:11,800
so it just seems to me that definition would be,

1377
01:32:12,140 --> 01:32:14,220
I can offer season and all or something like that.

1378
01:32:14,220 --> 01:32:18,240
I think it's a cool project, but I think it qualifies as a single project.

1379
01:32:19,880 --> 01:32:23,220
And in that, I know my personal experience in applying for money,

1380
01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:32,080
it's up to the entity to say how much, you can ask for $10,000 and we'll get three.

1381
01:32:32,660 --> 01:32:36,060
So, I mean, I think it qualifies under that single project,

1382
01:32:36,200 --> 01:32:40,100
and I think it's a cool event that could grow and do some great things in the city.

1383
01:32:40,100 --> 01:32:52,720
I don't think it's an act, I don't think it qualifies as the annual season, but I think it qualifies as an individual event, and I think the Rotary would probably be grateful for whatever they got.

1384
01:32:53,020 --> 01:33:03,640
You know, when I spoke to the Rotary recently, and they're warm, and they're welcoming, and I had the members come up and they say, how can we help the Arts Commission, the Kennedys offered to donate to the Arts Fund.

1385
01:33:06,440 --> 01:33:09,580
My only hang-up is I don't think it...

1386
01:33:09,580 --> 01:33:11,480
Have we defined the season, what does season mean?

1387
01:33:11,500 --> 01:33:12,580
Well, a series is a series.

1388
01:33:12,700 --> 01:33:13,120
I mean, that's a series.

1389
01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:14,440
No, have we defined it?

1390
01:33:14,740 --> 01:33:15,620
Do we have a definition?

1391
01:33:16,080 --> 01:33:17,800
I would call it an industry.

1392
01:33:17,820 --> 01:33:18,140
No.

1393
01:33:18,660 --> 01:33:22,020
So I look at it as an industry definition.

1394
01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:23,360
So then I can finish.

1395
01:33:23,400 --> 01:33:25,920
Thank you, Mr. Yeah.

1396
01:33:27,520 --> 01:33:29,080
He's trying to get your attention for a few.

1397
01:33:29,680 --> 01:33:32,260
I think, well, just going to finish my series.

1398
01:33:32,680 --> 01:33:33,700
I think this is a thing.

1399
01:33:33,940 --> 01:33:36,480
This is my personal opinion that I'm holding it against you.

1400
01:33:37,280 --> 01:33:38,660
I'm holding it against you right now.

1401
01:33:39,720 --> 01:33:45,420
No, but I think that, I just feel like there's not a define,

1402
01:33:45,640 --> 01:33:49,560
like we can define in our mind what we're used to, but once again, even like Amy,

1403
01:33:49,680 --> 01:33:52,600
Amy is so well versed in applying for grants and stuff like that.

1404
01:33:52,880 --> 01:33:54,940
But once again, this is the first time we've done this.

1405
01:33:55,260 --> 01:33:58,800
And I think that some of these things, we don't have a definition of what a season is.

1406
01:33:58,960 --> 01:34:02,600
You know, specifically, we didn't provide them, this is the definition of season.

1407
01:34:02,900 --> 01:34:06,100
So I think that they're, we're a little shaky, and they're going to be a little shaky.

1408
01:34:06,100 --> 01:34:09,600
Read that part, then, and I'll take it on to you.

1409
01:34:09,700 --> 01:34:11,900
Alex, one more time, Reed, what's in the policy about it?

1410
01:34:11,900 --> 01:34:12,460
Thank you, Alex.

1411
01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:15,940
Well, there's another part that you may want to catch in this.

1412
01:34:16,060 --> 01:34:19,620
OK, annual arts program grants, purpose

1413
01:34:20,040 --> 01:34:22,700
to support nonprofit organizations

1414
01:34:22,700 --> 01:34:25,440
presenting a full season of arts programming,

1415
01:34:27,380 --> 01:34:30,700
eligibility, 501C3 nonprofit arts organizations,

1416
01:34:31,540 --> 01:34:35,060
funding limit, up to $20,000, eligible uses,

1417
01:34:35,060 --> 01:34:36,880
is operations production, artist's fees,

1418
01:34:37,360 --> 01:34:39,900
venue rental, requirement must occur at Duncanville

1419
01:34:39,900 --> 01:34:41,480
and serve a public purpose, acknowledgement,

1420
01:34:42,240 --> 01:34:43,860
city, and arts commission.

1421
01:34:43,900 --> 01:34:45,380
I think it qualifies for a single.

1422
01:34:46,460 --> 01:34:47,720
Oh, did you want me to read the single?

1423
01:34:48,340 --> 01:34:48,780
Yes.

1424
01:34:49,140 --> 01:34:52,600
To support a single public facing arts project or event,

1425
01:34:53,220 --> 01:34:55,520
eligibility, individuals, nonprofits, businesses,

1426
01:34:55,860 --> 01:34:58,400
city departments, and the Duncanville Arts Commission,

1427
01:34:58,980 --> 01:35:02,220
funding limit, first time applicants up to three,

1428
01:35:02,920 --> 01:35:08,480
first-time applicants that are not sitting up to up to $3,000 non-reimbursable

1429
01:35:08,480 --> 01:35:13,080
requirement must occur in Duncanville and serve a public purpose and then

1430
01:35:13,080 --> 01:35:14,500
acknowledgement for the Arts Commission.

1431
01:35:14,920 --> 01:35:19,940
So are we thinking it would be more bad than the way they classified it in the application they turned in?

1432
01:35:20,420 --> 01:35:22,720
Because it's a non-profit, it's not a non-profit.

1433
01:35:22,800 --> 01:35:24,760
I'm going to go back and I'm going to go to the end of May.

1434
01:35:25,260 --> 01:35:26,420
And then you're back Tim.

1435
01:35:27,100 --> 01:35:31,300
So can we, even though they apply for an annual art program,

1436
01:35:31,440 --> 01:35:32,900
maybe they just click the wrong button,

1437
01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:37,460
can we change it to a single project or support grant

1438
01:35:37,460 --> 01:35:40,300
because that seems to me a better fit

1439
01:35:41,400 --> 01:35:45,500
and just because they ask for the max doesn't mean

1440
01:35:45,500 --> 01:35:48,300
we would have to give them $3,000 if we give them $1,000

1441
01:35:48,300 --> 01:35:49,780
because we have no budget.

1442
01:35:50,340 --> 01:35:52,520
We don't know what they want to spend it for

1443
01:35:52,520 --> 01:36:01,280
on necessarily. And so my question was, can we switch it even though you're the other type of grant?

1444
01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:04,000
Couldn't we do that? I think you would do it the same way.

1445
01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:06,940
How can we do that because we're 5-0-0-2-3? That's what I think.

1446
01:36:07,680 --> 01:36:12,080
They were probably like, oh we're 5-0-2-3, that's what we're 5-2-2. But Tim, they're in.

1447
01:36:12,740 --> 01:36:19,520
Well, you know, I think it's good. I think, first of all, we're the arts commission. I don't think this is an artistic event.

1448
01:36:19,520 --> 01:36:24,380
I think it says, ain't, you're going to see the dogs and the things, and what's the paint.

1449
01:36:24,580 --> 01:36:27,560
But you know, and then you're going to do all this other stuff that you need money for.

1450
01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:31,440
But that's not, that's not our commission to my mind.

1451
01:36:31,640 --> 01:36:36,400
If we're going to take money from that dog event away from a real arts thing,

1452
01:36:36,540 --> 01:36:38,600
then I'm not in favor of doing that.

1453
01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:44,140
Secondly, it says 501c3 arts program.

1454
01:36:44,140 --> 01:36:47,000
It says non-profit arts organization.

1455
01:36:47,500 --> 01:36:49,620
Rotary is not an arts organization per se.

1456
01:36:50,100 --> 01:36:51,300
It's a different kind of organization.

1457
01:36:52,940 --> 01:36:54,040
What are those two points?

1458
01:36:54,220 --> 01:36:54,740
I don't think they're cool.

1459
01:36:56,340 --> 01:37:00,340
That's exactly what I was going to say about it.

1460
01:37:00,540 --> 01:37:04,180
Plus, without seeing what they were even thinking of

1461
01:37:04,180 --> 01:37:07,380
for the $10,000, I thought that was a part of it.

1462
01:37:07,420 --> 01:37:10,380
We have to see what their detailed budget is, and we don't.

1463
01:37:10,380 --> 01:37:14,160
And so I think, I don't think we can reduce it

1464
01:37:14,160 --> 01:37:16,320
without seeing what they were asking for in the first place.

1465
01:37:17,020 --> 01:37:18,800
Here's a, would you read in the policy

1466
01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:21,100
where it talks about promotion of the arts

1467
01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:23,500
and they didn't have a conversation to Tim's point,

1468
01:37:23,580 --> 01:37:24,540
is this promoting the arts?

1469
01:37:25,460 --> 01:37:27,560
Well, we were paying the rocks a couple of months ago,

1470
01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:30,440
so I mean, that's it, we were dogs.

1471
01:37:30,660 --> 01:37:32,640
Right, but I think the thing about it is,

1472
01:37:33,020 --> 01:37:35,140
well, I also think the thing about it is, though,

1473
01:37:35,220 --> 01:37:36,840
is even though we can say, well,

1474
01:37:36,960 --> 01:37:38,720
it's not an art thing, it is an art thing,

1475
01:37:38,720 --> 01:37:41,440
because, I mean, it's a family engagement thing

1476
01:37:41,440 --> 01:37:43,560
for the community, and it's still art.

1477
01:37:43,920 --> 01:37:48,840
And I've been to one where they have animal painting,

1478
01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:52,640
you know, people, doctor animals, and the odd things.

1479
01:37:52,920 --> 01:37:54,860
And we did, during the conference, this stuff.

1480
01:37:55,020 --> 01:37:56,020
Was it pets or art?

1481
01:37:56,580 --> 01:37:58,120
It was, they bought their pets.

1482
01:37:58,600 --> 01:37:59,540
Yeah, I know, it was pets.

1483
01:37:59,980 --> 01:38:00,820
And they were doing it.

1484
01:38:00,960 --> 01:38:01,940
So was it a day of art?

1485
01:38:02,760 --> 01:38:03,440
That's my question.

1486
01:38:03,620 --> 01:38:05,240
Isn't that a day of art with pets, though?

1487
01:38:05,360 --> 01:38:06,800
Because if you could do a day of art with them.

1488
01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:13,780
So here's another way to look at it, so we have a lot of questions for the eligibility.

1489
01:38:14,820 --> 01:38:20,160
Rotary may choose for us not to make a decision on this, and they may want to choose to reapply.

1490
01:38:21,320 --> 01:38:29,360
And so it may be more advantage, because it looks like, I don't remember when the date was,

1491
01:38:29,480 --> 01:38:34,840
it could be more advantageous for them if we choose not to fund it and they can reapply

1492
01:38:34,840 --> 01:38:40,340
they hit some of these things and get the full amount so they can apply in

1493
01:38:40,340 --> 01:38:55,600
September they would not meet it they would not make it in time the awards

1494
01:38:55,600 --> 01:39:02,100
would not go out of time. I don't know. I don't know. We were picked rocks. I don't see how this is

1495
01:39:02,100 --> 01:39:07,000
in our project. And it's bringing families out and it's engaging them and I mean I know that they

1496
01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:11,380
may not have put the application into the correct segment and we may not have to give them $10,000

1497
01:39:11,820 --> 01:39:16,520
and we may not even have to give them $3,000 but I think that it's a different way to engage

1498
01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:22,100
families with artistic abilities. I think it's a great way to also engage you know we did a

1499
01:39:22,100 --> 01:39:26,320
a sensory area at our last event, and it was huge.

1500
01:39:26,840 --> 01:39:30,140
And I think that pets, and people bringing out their pets

1501
01:39:30,140 --> 01:39:32,760
and stuff, and especially those pets

1502
01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:37,520
that are convenient that we really know.

1503
01:39:38,180 --> 01:39:38,620
Service dogs.

1504
01:39:38,620 --> 01:39:40,020
Service dogs and stuff like that.

1505
01:39:40,380 --> 01:39:41,600
Like, I don't know, we've worked

1506
01:39:41,600 --> 01:39:42,940
with a lot of better programs and stuff.

1507
01:39:43,040 --> 01:39:44,720
And I just, I really like this program.

1508
01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:46,640
And I think it's really something fun.

1509
01:39:46,800 --> 01:39:47,520
I think it's different.

1510
01:39:48,340 --> 01:39:50,160
And I think there's no better time

1511
01:39:50,160 --> 01:39:55,800
And you have the kids that I think their buddy has the and in that.

1512
01:39:56,100 --> 01:40:02,040
Well, I was going to make a motion recommending that we fund the Dr.

1513
01:40:02,180 --> 01:40:05,440
Hill pause and paint for $3,000.

1514
01:40:06,320 --> 01:40:08,040
I second that motion. Hold on.

1515
01:40:08,360 --> 01:40:14,180
I've got an idea that you may want to consider so that it's consistent making a motion

1516
01:40:14,180 --> 01:40:18,680
recommending that the city council because you're making a recommendation to city council that they fund.

1517
01:40:20,280 --> 01:40:28,360
the pause and paint amending that it be moved to a single project as you were

1518
01:40:28,360 --> 01:40:45,720
mentioning and then the amount and so there's so there's no budget

1519
01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:53,760
is a matter. No details. Why do you think that's not having the budget attached?

1520
01:40:55,800 --> 01:41:00,900
It's a lot of, and we're talking, I know someone wants $2,000 to do that one day just from

1521
01:41:00,900 --> 01:41:04,220
my experience of doing events. I know they're expensive, you're dealing with dogs, you're

1522
01:41:04,220 --> 01:41:07,560
dealing with paint, you're dealing with families, you're talking about all the different

1523
01:41:07,560 --> 01:41:11,940
things they want to have there, vendors, fundraising stations, have themed activities,

1524
01:41:11,940 --> 01:41:14,140
to these local artists, the ringing out local artists,

1525
01:41:14,440 --> 01:41:15,480
they have to pay for those.

1526
01:41:15,860 --> 01:41:18,960
So I just feel like is the ask is making big,

1527
01:41:19,320 --> 01:41:21,220
but if it's our, we know they're expensive.

1528
01:41:21,900 --> 01:41:26,700
And I think that the rotary supports the community

1529
01:41:26,700 --> 01:41:27,760
and we support the community.

1530
01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:30,140
And I think that anywhere we can partner

1531
01:41:30,140 --> 01:41:31,740
to make sure that we, yeah,

1532
01:41:31,940 --> 01:41:36,040
that we do a good job in bringing some cohesions.

1533
01:41:36,240 --> 01:41:38,400
But let's talk, I wanna talk on Tim's

1534
01:41:38,400 --> 01:41:40,300
because this goes back to policy

1535
01:41:40,300 --> 01:41:46,780
because the hot policy and believe it's hot has to be promotion of the arts and

1536
01:41:46,780 --> 01:41:50,180
Tim just brought up is this are we promoting the arts or promoting the

1537
01:41:50,180 --> 01:41:56,360
park or the dogs and can we talk about that because that's a because that's a

1538
01:41:56,360 --> 01:42:03,180
hot law. What about this local artist that's not the sword in the arts? That was a question so like

1539
01:42:03,600 --> 01:42:05,500
What's the talk about local art?

1540
01:42:06,180 --> 01:42:08,400
It's all friendly, outdoor art party.

1541
01:42:08,920 --> 01:42:09,980
First of all, it's an art party.

1542
01:42:10,960 --> 01:42:12,520
And it has pecking activities.

1543
01:42:13,180 --> 01:42:15,360
It's providing local, bringing out local artists.

1544
01:42:16,640 --> 01:42:18,540
The food vendors, I don't know about that being part of it.

1545
01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:20,120
But fundraising stations.

1546
01:42:20,820 --> 01:42:23,960
But I think that, I also think it's a new park.

1547
01:42:24,040 --> 01:42:25,640
And I think that if we can be a part of that,

1548
01:42:25,880 --> 01:42:26,860
that looks good for us.

1549
01:42:26,880 --> 01:42:28,320
Because another thing that you've got to remember

1550
01:42:28,320 --> 01:42:33,420
is, is that we require you to put our market us in these things.

1551
01:42:33,620 --> 01:42:34,760
I like that too.

1552
01:42:35,580 --> 01:42:39,040
So you know my, and I just want to remind us

1553
01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:42,480
that when Parks and Rec came to talk to us about the dog park,

1554
01:42:42,760 --> 01:42:47,020
we even said to them that don't forget to include us,

1555
01:42:47,800 --> 01:42:49,740
the arts, that there needs to be art.

1556
01:42:50,320 --> 01:42:51,740
So here it's about that.

1557
01:42:52,320 --> 01:42:52,780
We should be.

1558
01:42:52,780 --> 01:42:55,740
I mean, I see everybody's, my only concern in this

1559
01:42:56,280 --> 01:42:58,660
I do think that they, when they first applied,

1560
01:42:58,980 --> 01:43:00,420
they applied to the wrong one.

1561
01:43:00,580 --> 01:43:03,260
So if we're talking about an arts-based event,

1562
01:43:03,620 --> 01:43:07,900
I think, because, so look, the state of Texas

1563
01:43:07,900 --> 01:43:11,240
knows that people can get kind of hinky with hot money.

1564
01:43:11,960 --> 01:43:13,720
And so they have an antenna on hot,

1565
01:43:13,920 --> 01:43:16,820
or they're trying to, you know, kind of fix it,

1566
01:43:16,860 --> 01:43:18,620
or they're really being creative about it.

1567
01:43:18,760 --> 01:43:22,500
So if the arts commission says,

1568
01:43:22,560 --> 01:43:23,940
yeah, this is hot compliant,

1569
01:43:24,800 --> 01:43:26,920
City Council can decide whether it is or not.

1570
01:43:27,060 --> 01:43:27,720
It's just a recommendation.

1571
01:43:28,680 --> 01:43:29,080
Yeah.

1572
01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:30,380
But there's a, yes, Anne.

1573
01:43:30,880 --> 01:43:34,020
There may be a place for a mural in the dog park.

1574
01:43:34,180 --> 01:43:34,240
Yeah.

1575
01:43:34,440 --> 01:43:35,000
Of dogs.

1576
01:43:36,620 --> 01:43:41,020
I do like the idea that we're supporting a new.

1577
01:43:42,140 --> 01:43:45,000
I think it's new and I think anything that we can be involved in

1578
01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:47,400
and look like we're helping the presenter get out there.

1579
01:43:47,900 --> 01:43:51,020
I mean, I think we, and that's just my personal opinion

1580
01:43:51,020 --> 01:43:52,820
but I always think that anytime we get a chance

1581
01:43:52,820 --> 01:43:57,220
market ourselves like we just the fact that we're associated with that that's

1582
01:43:57,220 --> 01:44:01,280
good press for us we're trying to create a cultural district like that's to me is

1583
01:44:01,280 --> 01:44:03,460
this is our community working for us.

1584
01:44:04,320 --> 01:44:16,140
People are very, a lot of GF cats and dogs, people are very sensitive to their animals and like I said I've been to one where they had palm art.

1585
01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:17,700
They've taken our little palm art.

1586
01:44:21,500 --> 01:44:29,160
So let me ask you this, let me ask you this, what I want to know is, because we love Rotary,

1587
01:44:29,340 --> 01:44:33,580
we love the project, but I want to hear on the record, why is it hot compliant?

1588
01:44:34,720 --> 01:44:35,220
Why is it hot?

1589
01:44:39,390 --> 01:44:54,950
One spin on that is the Rotary is an international club and they might invite people from other clubs and so I could see how it could be tourist.

1590
01:44:55,270 --> 01:44:58,470
Okay, so it's an international club. It's bringing in local artists.

1591
01:45:03,820 --> 01:45:11,760
I just want to, so I just want to know the record that we're having that conversation because we have a commissioner who is concerned that it's maybe an unmarked project and maybe it's not hot.

1592
01:45:11,940 --> 01:45:15,180
And perhaps maybe one of our vendors does work.

1593
01:45:17,400 --> 01:45:19,560
So there's another, there's not a detailed budget.

1594
01:45:19,560 --> 01:45:22,220
It says, I mean, that's a document checklist.

1595
01:45:22,540 --> 01:45:26,220
A detailed budget budget list is an acquired document,

1596
01:45:26,660 --> 01:45:27,580
and we don't have that.

1597
01:45:28,480 --> 01:45:30,180
I think it's a great project.

1598
01:45:30,960 --> 01:45:34,040
I even see the outside of it, and I'm all about the pets,

1599
01:45:34,200 --> 01:45:35,160
and I see the international.

1600
01:45:35,760 --> 01:45:37,680
But I would ask for a budget for everyone,

1601
01:45:37,700 --> 01:45:39,200
and the fact that they didn't include one.

1602
01:45:39,460 --> 01:45:41,340
Now, we can still make the motion with the caveat

1603
01:45:41,340 --> 01:45:43,860
we recommended to City Council upon.

1604
01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:45,200
If we've done the other caveats

1605
01:45:45,200 --> 01:45:46,980
upon the receipt of a detailed budget,

1606
01:45:47,060 --> 01:45:49,060
or something like that, how money would be spent.

1607
01:45:49,060 --> 01:46:03,240
But we don't have anything, the others have given us that budget against and there's so much on our states, there's so much on them a little whatever, but we don't have the tail budget and that wasn't a requested coverage, it says required documents, and that's one of them.

1608
01:46:03,580 --> 01:46:07,640
But I think also they did ask for a budget $6,000.

1609
01:46:07,640 --> 01:46:13,760
It didn't give a itemized let's know but I mean when the blue best came in they

1610
01:46:13,760 --> 01:46:17,180
didn't they just asked for some money and didn't give us no act didn't give us

1611
01:46:17,180 --> 01:46:21,180
no budget and everybody's ready to fund it in the first day so I feel like what's

1612
01:46:21,180 --> 01:46:24,420
good for the goose is good for the gander they did give us a budget did they

1613
01:46:24,420 --> 01:46:34,780
give us an itemized list it didn't say to get this itemized list but it also lets us know the party

1614
01:46:34,780 --> 01:46:38,820
feature in the activities of the artist who did fundraising stations so I think

1615
01:46:38,820 --> 01:46:41,960
is there a detail that there are do they list them out of the budget not

1616
01:46:41,960 --> 01:46:48,580
necessarily but it did not ask for a budget so I'm sorry I'm sorry Alex when

1617
01:46:48,580 --> 01:46:54,120
you were doing applications and people they're incomplete did you see that as

1618
01:46:54,120 --> 01:46:55,460
incomplete and

1619
01:46:58,630 --> 01:47:01,870
we were asking for a budget did we also provide them an

1620
01:47:01,870 --> 01:47:09,400
example what we wanted no I didn't provide anybody with a sample of what

1621
01:47:09,400 --> 01:47:14,340
I think it was long as far as a budget, because you guys never determined what it was.

1622
01:47:15,020 --> 01:47:17,980
That was never discussed as, this is the format we want for our budget.

1623
01:47:18,420 --> 01:47:23,200
All right, because under section six it just, it's not a budget and they completed it.

1624
01:47:23,800 --> 01:47:26,920
We were separately, I think it's in detail, it's in detail.

1625
01:47:29,400 --> 01:47:30,640
I don't know.

1626
01:47:30,960 --> 01:47:31,180
I don't know.

1627
01:47:31,180 --> 01:47:32,100
That's a lot of money.

1628
01:47:33,360 --> 01:47:34,000
Right, that's a lot.

1629
01:47:35,280 --> 01:47:37,860
We're not giving them $2,000 to literally-

1630
01:47:37,860 --> 01:47:38,760
We're looking at the three.

1631
01:47:39,360 --> 01:47:42,400
We're looking at the 30% for 1,000.

1632
01:47:42,520 --> 01:47:44,680
I got this for $1,000.

1633
01:47:45,040 --> 01:47:46,260
It's going to cost more than that for the rest.

1634
01:47:47,860 --> 01:47:49,160
I believe you have a motion.

1635
01:47:50,100 --> 01:47:50,540
Is there a motion?

1636
01:47:50,780 --> 01:47:51,160
There's a motion.

1637
01:47:51,260 --> 01:47:52,020
I have a motion.

1638
01:47:52,740 --> 01:47:54,100
Yeah, she seconded it.

1639
01:47:54,820 --> 01:47:56,900
Well, wait a minute, you were going to read more than that.

1640
01:47:57,420 --> 01:48:00,480
Well, I make a motion recommending the City Council

1641
01:48:01,580 --> 01:48:05,240
fund the Duncan Hill Paws and Paint project

1642
01:48:05,240 --> 01:48:10,180
in the amount of, in the amended amount, $3,000.

1643
01:48:10,600 --> 01:48:12,720
It was $1,002.

1644
01:48:13,020 --> 01:48:14,320
I mean, yes, he wanted it.

1645
01:48:14,380 --> 01:48:16,380
Well, I'm gonna second it for $3,000.

1646
01:48:16,700 --> 01:48:17,880
And she seconded it for $3,000.

1647
01:48:17,880 --> 01:48:19,400
That's only 30% of what they asked.

1648
01:48:19,540 --> 01:48:21,260
But if he wanted a friendly amendment,

1649
01:48:21,640 --> 01:48:24,920
if she agrees to it, no,

1650
01:48:25,160 --> 01:48:28,360
or he can make a motion to amend the amount

1651
01:48:28,360 --> 01:48:30,060
and he filled on his motion first,

1652
01:48:30,360 --> 01:48:31,700
and if he passed or fails,

1653
01:48:32,020 --> 01:48:32,900
and then he could go back to it.

1654
01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:33,680
Do you guys understand that?

1655
01:48:36,090 --> 01:48:40,070
So you have to ask her, and then she agreed to work for an amendment.

1656
01:48:41,510 --> 01:48:42,390
A hotspot.

1657
01:48:42,650 --> 01:48:43,790
You're on a hotspot.

1658
01:48:44,790 --> 01:48:45,670
That's OK.

1659
01:48:48,390 --> 01:48:50,970
I'd like to keep my motion at $3,000.

1660
01:48:52,390 --> 01:48:53,510
You want to make a motion?

1661
01:48:54,110 --> 01:48:54,290
No.

1662
01:48:55,210 --> 01:48:56,310
So there's a motion.

1663
01:48:56,470 --> 01:48:56,950
There's a second.

1664
01:48:57,110 --> 01:48:57,930
Any more discussion?

1665
01:49:02,110 --> 01:49:04,730
This is one of those things where we say, do we love the project?

1666
01:49:04,730 --> 01:49:06,590
like we love the organization, but is it compliant?

1667
01:49:07,730 --> 01:49:10,810
I have questions on whether it's compliant, but fine.

1668
01:49:13,010 --> 01:49:15,510
I think it's fair though, but I think we're gonna have,

1669
01:49:15,690 --> 01:49:17,630
the first time we're gonna have questions about everything

1670
01:49:18,050 --> 01:49:19,050
but we're just trying to do it right.

1671
01:49:19,510 --> 01:49:24,390
And I think that these applicants are trying to do something

1672
01:49:24,390 --> 01:49:26,690
positive in the community that is arts focused

1673
01:49:27,630 --> 01:49:30,910
and everybody has a different realm on what arts is.

1674
01:49:31,350 --> 01:49:34,250
And so I think it's, we have to give them a little

1675
01:49:34,250 --> 01:49:38,350
grace just like we deserve a little grace as we're doing this to make sure

1676
01:49:38,350 --> 01:49:41,970
we're making the best decisions for the commission. Any more discussion on this

1677
01:49:41,970 --> 01:49:48,850
item? If we are not funding them, do we think that they will still put on an event like this?

1678
01:49:50,890 --> 01:49:59,430
I suspect they would but that's I can't say that. I don't know but I think it's something that they've already

1679
01:50:09,080 --> 01:50:20,800
Well, I don't think that's necessarily a question. I think the question is, if the state comes back to the city and says, I'm sorry, you use that money inappropriately, I think that's the question I'm asking. I love the program. I love the program.

1680
01:50:20,800 --> 01:50:22,700
Well, I think that the deposit on paint, though, to me,

1681
01:50:22,820 --> 01:50:24,720
is that it brings in tourism of people

1682
01:50:24,720 --> 01:50:25,640
to bring their pets in town.

1683
01:50:25,780 --> 01:50:27,620
I think it's an event that people would come,

1684
01:50:28,160 --> 01:50:30,300
whether it's crossing in from the Sodor River in Prairie,

1685
01:50:30,600 --> 01:50:31,680
or whatever it may be.

1686
01:50:31,860 --> 01:50:33,920
I think that it's promoting local artists.

1687
01:50:34,500 --> 01:50:37,580
I think that those are the two things that I'm most,

1688
01:50:39,280 --> 01:50:41,160
that I think that's qualified for options.

1689
01:50:42,040 --> 01:50:43,440
Do you think, and I'm asking,

1690
01:50:43,580 --> 01:50:45,280
there's just so we're having this conversation,

1691
01:50:45,460 --> 01:50:48,560
that we're spending too much time for 3,000 dollars.

1692
01:50:50,800 --> 01:50:51,840
Any more discussion on this?

1693
01:50:52,340 --> 01:50:55,220
Well, for the amendment, if it's only $3,000,

1694
01:50:55,360 --> 01:50:57,840
I still think we need a detailed budget of what that's for.

1695
01:50:59,020 --> 01:51:00,360
Ask for it for a friendly amendment.

1696
01:51:02,000 --> 01:51:03,640
You're suggesting $2,000?

1697
01:51:03,940 --> 01:51:06,640
No, no, I said, if we're going to say $3,000,

1698
01:51:06,760 --> 01:51:09,960
we still need a detailed budget of what even that's for.

1699
01:51:11,520 --> 01:51:12,000
Is that OK?

1700
01:51:12,320 --> 01:51:14,100
Does it need to be any motion?

1701
01:51:14,860 --> 01:51:16,600
You have to accept for a friendly amendment.

1702
01:51:17,580 --> 01:51:18,680
She says, yeah.

1703
01:51:18,680 --> 01:51:25,640
can you repeat the motion? I make a motion recommending the city council fund

1704
01:51:25,640 --> 01:51:33,360
Duncanville pause and paint project in the amount of $3,000 and supply us with a

1705
01:51:33,360 --> 01:51:36,300
detailed budget for the event,

1706
01:51:38,370 --> 01:51:39,050
is that okay?

1707
01:51:40,370 --> 01:51:40,810
If

1708
01:51:44,390 --> 01:51:48,730
you say, if you say, if that's what you want, that's what you want, it should be if they

1709
01:51:48,730 --> 01:51:49,230
supplies.

1710
01:51:49,890 --> 01:51:51,370
Well, we don't have a chance.

1711
01:51:51,530 --> 01:51:56,350
But so here's the thing, is the application ain't complete, because you just changed the

1712
01:51:56,350 --> 01:51:57,750
motion to include a detailed budget.

1713
01:51:57,990 --> 01:51:59,790
So your suggestion is the application's incomplete.

1714
01:52:01,370 --> 01:52:02,670
Isn't that what we did this morning?

1715
01:52:02,950 --> 01:52:09,550
I said first, okay, I'll withdraw my, okay, thank you, but this is such a small

1716
01:52:09,550 --> 01:52:09,850
amount.

1717
01:52:09,850 --> 01:52:11,870
Let's go with the original motion.

1718
01:52:13,490 --> 01:52:16,670
So let's finish this and take a five minute break, okay?

1719
01:52:16,870 --> 01:52:17,090
Yes.

1720
01:52:18,010 --> 01:52:19,550
Okay, so would you repeat the motion?

1721
01:52:20,150 --> 01:52:20,510
All right.

1722
01:52:20,750 --> 01:52:23,210
I make a motion recommending the City Council fund

1723
01:52:23,210 --> 01:52:27,530
so I can go pause some paint project in the amount of $3,000.

1724
01:52:28,270 --> 01:52:29,130
Uh, is there a second?

1725
01:52:29,470 --> 01:52:30,250
I second the motion.

1726
01:52:30,330 --> 01:52:30,770
All in favor?

1727
01:52:31,430 --> 01:52:31,690
Aye.

1728
01:52:33,070 --> 01:52:33,630
Uh-oh, no.

1729
01:52:35,770 --> 01:52:36,210
Split.

1730
01:52:39,740 --> 01:52:40,620
I feel like Anne.

1731
01:52:50,100 --> 01:52:57,500
Okay, they got the cats right here. That's different. Do you remember when the cats cut my elegant hair?

1732
01:52:58,500 --> 01:52:59,680
Okay, got that. All of those.

1733
01:53:09,180 --> 01:53:10,900
The city council know the vote?

1734
01:53:11,320 --> 01:53:12,900
Yes, I will include that.

1735
01:53:24,140 --> 01:53:29,400
Let's take a five minute break, it is 8 o'clock.

1736
01:53:29,980 --> 01:53:33,020
12, Arts Commission is back in session, let's go ahead and continue.

1737
01:53:33,020 --> 01:53:33,180
Thank you.

1738
01:53:33,820 --> 01:53:35,460
Mr. Handy, you have the floor.

1739
01:53:36,120 --> 01:53:39,400
Dance Recital is the event title.

1740
01:53:39,660 --> 01:53:42,900
Single Project Support Grant is the category.

1741
01:53:43,800 --> 01:53:46,200
Each year our studio has an annual recital.

1742
01:53:46,560 --> 01:53:55,200
All of our dancers are ages two years of to 18 years old perform dances on a stage they

1743
01:53:55,200 --> 01:53:57,340
have been learning in our program.

1744
01:53:58,920 --> 01:54:03,860
We teach ballet, tap, hip-hop, lyrical, and African dancing.

1745
01:54:04,600 --> 01:54:09,060
The total project budget is $20,735.

1746
01:54:09,620 --> 01:54:11,220
The requested amount is $10,000.

1747
01:54:14,930 --> 01:54:15,430
Discussions?

1748
01:54:18,330 --> 01:54:20,430
Well, you already decided to cast the indefinable,

1749
01:54:21,090 --> 01:54:23,870
and I think if it's going to be indefinable,

1750
01:54:23,970 --> 01:54:25,070
the cast are readjusted.

1751
01:54:25,190 --> 01:54:27,490
They're about that because this is for Dallas Theatre Center,

1752
01:54:27,610 --> 01:54:28,870
which sounds like it probably is.

1753
01:54:30,350 --> 01:54:33,130
I don't really need to ask for a, I'll just say,

1754
01:54:33,370 --> 01:54:35,210
downspot is the equivalent of that.

1755
01:54:35,550 --> 01:54:37,630
They need to consider the definition.

1756
01:54:40,370 --> 01:54:42,790
So I kind of read that and said in the past,

1757
01:54:42,950 --> 01:54:43,570
it's better than nothing else.

1758
01:54:43,630 --> 01:54:47,490
Yes, but these figures are not definitely

1759
01:54:47,490 --> 01:54:49,950
the figures of my assumption.

1760
01:54:50,390 --> 01:54:53,350
I mean, what venue in the...

1761
01:54:54,570 --> 01:54:56,170
Is that the one they're gonna have to see the list?

1762
01:54:56,990 --> 01:54:59,210
I think they're going to have it at the dance studio.

1763
01:54:59,390 --> 01:55:02,630
Yes, and I don't see how that can be a little bit accurate.

1764
01:55:04,030 --> 01:55:04,670
Maybe the kids.

1765
01:55:07,230 --> 01:55:09,910
Tim, can you just tell us if you just

1766
01:55:09,910 --> 01:55:13,590
see the data home freeze or the computer center?

1767
01:55:16,610 --> 01:55:19,090
The way that I read that, we said the passive data

1768
01:55:19,090 --> 01:55:20,530
for children's data for dollars.

1769
01:55:21,130 --> 01:55:22,670
But they're going to be doing it at the studio

1770
01:55:22,670 --> 01:55:23,650
and see the origin of the slide.

1771
01:55:24,030 --> 01:55:24,850
That's how I read it.

1772
01:55:24,850 --> 01:55:28,950
I think sales are estimated 500 is going to have to be some place to get these $5,000.

1773
01:55:29,270 --> 01:55:32,770
On the budget it says revenue to sales estimated by new tickets.

1774
01:55:33,790 --> 01:55:34,350
That's what we're getting.

1775
01:55:34,850 --> 01:55:35,670
That's what we're getting at.

1776
01:55:35,990 --> 01:55:37,350
And I-

1777
01:55:37,350 --> 01:55:38,750
Well, I think that's concession sales.

1778
01:55:38,870 --> 01:55:42,030
So I'm assuming they may be having it running some place here.

1779
01:55:42,550 --> 01:55:45,110
Because everyone knows these two projects and things have to be another level.

1780
01:55:45,330 --> 01:55:45,530
Yeah.

1781
01:55:46,150 --> 01:55:47,010
So yeah.

1782
01:55:47,190 --> 01:55:49,690
I'm thinking the fact that they said concession sales.

1783
01:55:50,630 --> 01:55:54,210
I don't think it may be a, maybe the 10 ounce.

1784
01:55:54,510 --> 01:55:54,770
Matt.

1785
01:55:55,750 --> 01:55:58,650
Is the high school auditorium used for things like that?

1786
01:55:58,990 --> 01:56:00,770
You know what it, you know what it may be

1787
01:56:00,770 --> 01:56:02,070
at a school facility, that's right.

1788
01:56:02,690 --> 01:56:04,290
That would be, that'd be the only one.

1789
01:56:04,490 --> 01:56:06,330
Yeah, they've never done it at a school.

1790
01:56:06,610 --> 01:56:06,730
Yeah.

1791
01:56:07,350 --> 01:56:08,270
We don't know that though.

1792
01:56:08,370 --> 01:56:10,530
So one of the things I know that Alex is doing

1793
01:56:10,530 --> 01:56:12,630
when he was taking these applications is he was,

1794
01:56:12,670 --> 01:56:13,950
he was following up to make sure

1795
01:56:13,950 --> 01:56:15,110
they said it's going to be somewhere

1796
01:56:15,110 --> 01:56:16,430
he would check to make sure he's working.

1797
01:56:16,710 --> 01:56:18,050
Only if it was city facilities.

1798
01:56:18,270 --> 01:56:19,170
Only if it's not marked.

1799
01:56:19,170 --> 01:56:21,110
Because those I can verify easily.

1800
01:56:22,510 --> 01:56:27,810
A move said that they requested a single project to support grant, which, and then it asked

1801
01:56:27,810 --> 01:56:31,130
for $10,000 by a judge on the first time it fell a $3,000.

1802
01:56:34,810 --> 01:56:35,530
For a motion?

1803
01:56:36,010 --> 01:56:36,030
Yes.

1804
01:56:36,910 --> 01:56:37,210
Back.

1805
01:56:38,110 --> 01:56:45,130
I would like to make a motion recommending to the City Council to fund the Journey

1806
01:56:48,300 --> 01:56:48,860
Dance

1807
01:56:48,860 --> 01:56:53,820
the center dance recital for the amount of $3,000.

1808
01:56:55,040 --> 01:56:55,600
Second.

1809
01:56:55,800 --> 01:56:58,160
There's a motion and a second discussion.

1810
01:57:00,600 --> 01:57:01,280
No discussion?

1811
01:57:02,140 --> 01:57:04,020
Would this be in Duncan?

1812
01:57:04,280 --> 01:57:05,800
Oh yeah, would the cab be out of the view?

1813
01:57:06,160 --> 01:57:06,740
Do you want to?

1814
01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:08,540
Yes, so here we go again.

1815
01:57:09,920 --> 01:57:13,340
I mean, recommending to the city council

1816
01:57:15,960 --> 01:57:20,500
the dirty dance recital for the amount of money

1817
01:57:20,520 --> 01:57:27,040
or $3,000 with a caveat that it be in or located in Duncanville.

1818
01:57:27,640 --> 01:57:28,060
Okay.

1819
01:57:28,440 --> 01:57:30,380
We have a motion and a second. Any discussion?

1820
01:57:32,300 --> 01:57:33,220
No discussion?

1821
01:57:33,700 --> 01:57:33,880
No.

1822
01:57:34,240 --> 01:57:36,320
Okay. All those in favor, raise your hand.

1823
01:57:38,900 --> 01:57:40,180
You didn't have to look at that.

1824
01:57:40,380 --> 01:57:41,000
Anybody opposed?

1825
01:57:42,180 --> 01:57:42,700
Next.

1826
01:57:43,120 --> 01:57:43,360
Next.

1827
01:57:45,160 --> 01:57:46,480
This says Ron Thompson.

1828
01:57:47,880 --> 01:57:49,660
Do you want to refuse your shot?

1829
01:57:49,740 --> 01:57:50,040
No.

1830
01:57:50,040 --> 01:57:51,020
I don't know, I don't know.

1831
01:57:52,620 --> 01:57:54,560
It's only about the ones.

1832
01:57:57,120 --> 01:58:02,260
Okay, L-Affair submitted as a single project support grant.

1833
01:58:02,780 --> 01:58:05,980
L-Affair's two-day community arts event launched in 2024

1834
01:58:05,980 --> 01:58:08,540
by Dungabill residents Gail Sleiger and Sue Clark

1835
01:58:08,540 --> 01:58:10,800
to support the newly formed Dungabill Arts Commission

1836
01:58:10,800 --> 01:58:15,180
through public awareness and grassroots fundraising.

1837
01:58:16,560 --> 01:58:19,200
Organized in just four weeks, the inaugural event

1838
01:58:19,200 --> 01:58:24,220
drew approximately 200 attendees and artists from across the region raised $400 for the

1839
01:58:24,220 --> 01:58:29,900
Dunger Bill Arts Fund and received local media coverage. Laying the foundation for an

1840
01:58:29,900 --> 01:58:36,300
expanded 2025 event focused on visibility, revenue, and long-term opportunity for the

1841
01:58:36,300 --> 01:58:46,220
city's creative community. The total project budget is $16,650. Requested amount is $4,950

1842
01:58:46,220 --> 01:58:49,560
Though, as I understand, as of this afternoon,

1843
01:58:49,720 --> 01:58:52,120
that requested amount may have changed.

1844
01:58:54,170 --> 01:58:55,610
So I can't talk about this.

1845
01:58:57,890 --> 01:59:01,530
Because the Arts Commission, this is what the Arts Commission

1846
01:59:01,530 --> 01:59:03,930
did last time, this would be money that would not

1847
01:59:03,930 --> 01:59:05,250
be an external distribution.

1848
01:59:05,750 --> 01:59:06,950
It would stay within the Arts Commission.

1849
01:59:10,110 --> 01:59:12,850
And this is too, I can't even pitch.

1850
01:59:14,450 --> 01:59:17,130
So yes, so the amount requested has

1851
01:59:17,130 --> 01:59:18,170
been amended to $3,000.

1852
01:59:19,070 --> 01:59:19,790
A big price, huh?

1853
01:59:19,990 --> 01:59:20,350
Yes, ma'am.

1854
01:59:20,810 --> 01:59:21,830
Wasn't that the match anyway?

1855
01:59:22,110 --> 01:59:22,510
Yes, ma'am.

1856
01:59:22,830 --> 01:59:24,730
So why was it originally asked for $49.50?

1857
01:59:24,990 --> 01:59:25,590
I can't tell you now.

1858
01:59:26,770 --> 01:59:28,870
Technically, this is an internal event.

1859
01:59:29,190 --> 01:59:31,490
It's the same thing as you are basically

1860
01:59:31,490 --> 01:59:35,690
asking yourselves to fund events that you are a part of.

1861
01:59:36,010 --> 01:59:36,850
So here's one of those.

1862
01:59:37,130 --> 01:59:40,310
It sort of falls under the supplementary.

1863
01:59:42,530 --> 01:59:44,770
It sort of falls under the call for artists

1864
01:59:44,770 --> 01:59:48,870
where you are because it's one of you pitching it to yourselves.

1865
02:00:00,830 --> 02:00:03,490
Because it's a fundraiser for the arts commission.

1866
02:00:05,090 --> 02:00:07,030
Where's the budget? Everybody has a budget?

1867
02:00:07,670 --> 02:00:12,210
A budget was submitted. And I'm the lead on it.

1868
02:00:13,010 --> 02:00:16,170
Where's the budget though? It's not here.

1869
02:00:16,730 --> 02:00:19,930
Here's a question. Did they rent the senior citizens

1870
02:00:19,930 --> 02:00:22,670
and how much is that for such arrangement?

1871
02:00:23,610 --> 02:00:28,070
Okay, so Alex, guys, I need to help with the language. So because

1872
02:00:28,070 --> 02:00:34,370
But we agreed that we would not allow applicants to come in and present.

1873
02:00:35,850 --> 02:00:41,570
Technically, this is an arts commission project like it was last year.

1874
02:00:44,260 --> 02:00:48,960
So I can't present. I'm only going to move.

1875
02:00:48,960 --> 02:00:51,000
Last year, it wasn't. It wasn't.

1876
02:00:51,200 --> 02:00:53,080
It was before today.

1877
02:00:53,460 --> 02:00:54,820
It was before afterwards?

1878
02:00:55,040 --> 02:00:55,940
Yeah, we found out.

1879
02:00:56,240 --> 02:00:56,760
It was individual.

1880
02:00:57,620 --> 02:00:59,520
We did all that stuff last year.

1881
02:01:00,380 --> 02:01:01,860
So I need help, y'all, I can't.

1882
02:01:01,960 --> 02:01:04,600
Okay, so let me ask you these questions. This is the thing about it, right?

1883
02:01:05,040 --> 02:01:15,320
So last year, Gail, excuse me, Miss Liger and Miss Clark came in and they told us about the event after it happened.

1884
02:01:15,440 --> 02:01:17,880
We did not support it. It was not an arts commission event.

1885
02:01:18,260 --> 02:01:23,720
It was something that they did for the arts commission, but that was not something that we came up with and we said, yeah, hopefully.

1886
02:01:23,720 --> 02:01:27,400
This was something that they came and told us about the success after it happened.

1887
02:01:27,560 --> 02:01:28,740
Would that be correct or not correct?

1888
02:01:29,300 --> 02:01:32,200
No, we worked very hard that day, especially.

1889
02:01:32,640 --> 02:01:33,920
We took easels over there.

1890
02:01:34,940 --> 02:01:38,220
Many people, including Ron, helped them set up.

1891
02:01:38,440 --> 02:01:39,300
We carried things.

1892
02:01:39,760 --> 02:01:41,180
We supported it.

1893
02:01:41,980 --> 02:01:42,380
We didn't.

1894
02:01:42,500 --> 02:01:44,780
Was this something that we talked to them on an agenda?

1895
02:01:45,180 --> 02:01:47,700
Was this ever on the agenda and discussed in many of our meetings?

1896
02:01:48,000 --> 02:01:48,320
No.

1897
02:01:48,720 --> 02:01:50,860
She came in, like you said, and spoke to us.

1898
02:01:50,860 --> 02:01:56,900
they did it and they were doing it on our behalf to raise money for us they

1899
02:01:56,900 --> 02:02:04,900
raised $400 so they raised $400 and now they want $5,000 and the total

1900
02:02:04,900 --> 02:02:08,440
projected budget is $16,000 but we don't have one piece of paper that says

1901
02:02:08,440 --> 02:02:12,640
what this funding is for. So Alex has an attached budget. There's actually a very

1902
02:02:12,640 --> 02:02:16,420
robust budget in there and it's been amended to $3,000. And so the but the

1903
02:02:16,420 --> 02:02:20,960
most that the four single project is $3,000. Correct. Right. And so

1904
02:02:20,960 --> 02:02:26,940
therefore is is they only raised $400 last year. I can't see. I

1905
02:02:26,940 --> 02:02:35,180
didn't mean to look at the $400 rate last year. I have to go

1906
02:02:35,180 --> 02:02:41,200
and plug in and that will cause some time. But I can read

1907
02:02:41,200 --> 02:02:50,580
out the budget. $4,000 for artists and speakers support, $1,850 for event production.

1908
02:02:50,840 --> 02:02:55,760
Can you read the, so there's some amended language in there, not amended language, there's a language

1909
02:02:55,760 --> 02:03:03,620
attached to the budget where it outlines the project in full scope. Where it talks about the

1910
02:03:03,620 --> 02:03:09,180
roundtable and the mentorships. So it says that the newly formed back of the arts commission

1911
02:03:09,180 --> 02:03:14,640
through to support us, do public awareness and grassroots fundraising to do what?

1912
02:03:16,700 --> 02:03:24,000
So, if you can give me roughly 10 minutes, I will go print.

1913
02:03:24,560 --> 02:03:29,080
Can I just say, can we move this down and work on their...

1914
02:03:29,080 --> 02:03:30,580
Can we get a glass?

1915
02:03:31,280 --> 02:03:32,200
Yeah, can you get a glass?

1916
02:03:33,900 --> 02:03:34,940
Thank you.

1917
02:03:35,380 --> 02:03:37,500
Well, we can't because you just watched.

1918
02:03:37,980 --> 02:03:41,380
Okay, in the meantime...

1919
02:03:41,380 --> 02:03:51,900
My understanding is like, it's not something we started but we supported it and it was an effort to raise money for us.

1920
02:03:52,180 --> 02:03:57,500
They did it every year and last year we helped them with that.

1921
02:03:57,940 --> 02:03:59,140
It's really not a...

1922
02:03:59,140 --> 02:03:59,600
It was dancing.

1923
02:04:00,140 --> 02:04:02,580
It's really not a...

1924
02:04:02,580 --> 02:04:05,560
Mark's Commission sponsored event necessary.

1925
02:04:09,960 --> 02:04:35,220
It is an arts event in that it brings in all sorts of works of art and the public is invited to view it and to see it, if they're making the money, the arts commission is the beneficiary of that, but that's a secondary thing, it truly does showcase art, and I think that's important, and it really showcases that high caliber of art in the school.

1926
02:04:37,960 --> 02:04:45,300
I agree. I mean, I know it's an art, but my concern or my question is the 16650 budget

1927
02:04:45,840 --> 02:04:53,780
is that 16650 coming out of the Arts Commission? They're only asking for $3,000. That's been

1928
02:04:53,780 --> 02:05:01,080
amended. Only $3,000. So even though we're sort of part of that event, the 16650 we're

1929
02:05:01,080 --> 02:05:01,840
I'm not worried about that.

1930
02:05:03,160 --> 02:05:08,940
Not anymore than we're worried about the Journey Dance Center saying it was $20,735

1931
02:05:08,940 --> 02:05:10,940
and we're only giving them $3,000.

1932
02:05:11,740 --> 02:05:13,600
They said the real project was going to cost.

1933
02:05:13,880 --> 02:05:16,960
Yeah, but we're saying that this is a part of the Duck andville Arts Commission.

1934
02:05:17,160 --> 02:05:20,280
Yeah, but because our name is on Duck andville Arts Commission.

1935
02:05:20,380 --> 02:05:21,340
Right, I know that.

1936
02:05:21,460 --> 02:05:22,860
I'm just saying 16th.

1937
02:05:22,880 --> 02:05:24,980
They're basically saying, we want to present this.

1938
02:05:25,520 --> 02:05:26,280
Isn't that what they're saying?

1939
02:05:26,960 --> 02:05:27,660
Is that what's being said?

1940
02:05:28,440 --> 02:05:30,460
That we're presenting this at the Duck andville Arts Commission?

1941
02:05:30,460 --> 02:05:44,860
So I would ask the art commission to consider something what's going to happen and this is not me pitching for this this is just general what's going to happen when the community comes together says I'm going to support the arts commission.

1942
02:05:45,460 --> 02:05:48,960
I support your mission and I want to do something to support you.

1943
02:05:49,680 --> 02:05:53,880
So the first one like the Rotary Club did right.

1944
02:05:54,780 --> 02:05:55,400
Same thing.

1945
02:05:55,400 --> 02:06:00,240
well it's not the same thing my only concern was is it hot relevant if that

1946
02:06:00,240 --> 02:06:04,240
when he's going to come back see y'all can't talk about it because we said

1947
02:06:04,240 --> 02:06:07,440
that we said that we can't take presentations so I can't talk about it

1948
02:06:07,440 --> 02:06:14,920
but we can't talk about it. But the last year there were people from all over the place that came so what would you do?

1949
02:06:17,180 --> 02:06:18,860
So are we going to prove it or not?

1950
02:06:20,320 --> 02:06:22,120
Do you know what you guys think of it?

1951
02:06:23,280 --> 02:06:23,680
Okay.

1952
02:06:28,660 --> 02:06:33,420
So I can make a motion to approve it for $3,000.

1953
02:06:33,860 --> 02:06:36,600
I think, can you do it for the record the way you said it?

1954
02:06:36,600 --> 02:06:36,800
Yeah.

1955
02:06:37,540 --> 02:06:37,920
Read it.

1956
02:06:38,260 --> 02:06:40,420
Read it the way it's described.

1957
02:06:41,960 --> 02:06:57,440
motion I make the most recommend the city council fund in the amount of $2,500 what you want to

1958
02:06:57,440 --> 02:07:10,080
do $3,000 second there's a motion and a second any other conversation about it every little

1959
02:07:28,180 --> 02:07:33,760
Okay fix in his plate single-project support grant fix in his plate as a

1960
02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:38,420
heartwarming family friendly stage play that blends music dancing drama and

1961
02:07:38,420 --> 02:07:44,200
comedy to tell the story of a holiday gathering turned upside down after one woman fixes the

1962
02:07:44,200 --> 02:07:49,620
wrong man's dinner plate. Routed in themes of love, tradition, and chaos, the 90-minute

1963
02:07:49,620 --> 02:07:55,140
production offers a rich theatrical experience for all ages. With local talent both on stage

1964
02:07:55,140 --> 02:07:59,900
and behind the scenes, the project will serve as a cultural celebration of the Dunkinville

1965
02:07:59,900 --> 02:08:04,840
community, bringing neighbors together through shared storytelling and joyful connection.

1966
02:08:07,260 --> 02:08:13,620
The, I believe the requested amount is 75, no, it's 3,000, 3,000.

1967
02:08:13,960 --> 02:08:18,260
It's a single-project support grant. They're requesting $3,000. Is there a motion?

1968
02:08:18,780 --> 02:08:25,040
I make a motion. I'm recommending the City Council fund fixing its plight and the amount of $3,000.

1969
02:08:25,380 --> 02:08:25,940
Is there a second?

1970
02:08:26,280 --> 02:08:27,040
I second that motion.

1971
02:08:27,160 --> 02:08:27,720
Is there any discussion?

1972
02:08:28,660 --> 02:08:28,940
No.

1973
02:08:29,380 --> 02:08:30,800
So I do want to say something.

1974
02:08:31,100 --> 02:08:32,300
Of course you do.

1975
02:08:32,380 --> 02:08:32,580
Okay.

1976
02:08:32,580 --> 02:08:38,620
Okay, okay, so they came and performed at the Juneteenth Celebration, correct?

1977
02:08:39,580 --> 02:08:39,800
Yes.

1978
02:08:40,040 --> 02:08:48,620
So we spent money on them then, they're asking for $3,000, you know, we can give them the

1979
02:08:48,620 --> 02:08:53,680
whole $3,000, but I think they're going to do the better job for Juneteenth.

1980
02:08:54,220 --> 02:08:57,940
So I don't know that we need to give them the whole $3,000, and I love them both,

1981
02:08:58,180 --> 02:08:59,540
but I'm just being very honest.

1982
02:08:59,540 --> 02:09:03,440
like this is the thing about it is we've waited a long time for this money and we

1983
02:09:03,440 --> 02:09:07,480
just spent money with them and they could have came better than they came. So I just

1984
02:09:07,480 --> 02:09:12,280
feel like it's I would like to amend that for $2,500. That's just my thought.

1985
02:09:12,420 --> 02:09:16,980
Who did the motion? Who did the motion? You did the motion? Who did the motion? You did the motion. Is that a friendly amendment?

1986
02:09:17,860 --> 02:09:22,000
I will not accept that for my own system. I love you too.

1987
02:09:24,440 --> 02:09:26,340
Oh, there's a motion. Is there a second?

1988
02:09:28,920 --> 02:09:38,800
I just have a counter comment that I really feel like that Candace and her husband, Cedric are proven people in the arts.

1989
02:09:39,200 --> 02:09:47,000
I think for Juneteenth, she didn't realize she was the only one in the program and that's why it wasn't more extensive than that.

1990
02:09:47,720 --> 02:09:51,860
She didn't realize. At least that's what she told me. She acted surprised.

1991
02:09:51,860 --> 02:09:56,240
But anyway, I think they're marvelously creative.

1992
02:09:56,420 --> 02:09:57,800
I'm reading her book right now.

1993
02:09:57,900 --> 02:10:02,740
It's really creative in its language and its concepts.

1994
02:10:03,320 --> 02:10:04,700
So I love the play.

1995
02:10:04,880 --> 02:10:07,380
I love the fact that it's bringing plays and more diversity

1996
02:10:07,380 --> 02:10:09,020
to plays in our area, you know?

1997
02:10:09,300 --> 02:10:11,560
But I also think I'm just telling you what I think.

1998
02:10:11,740 --> 02:10:13,140
I think that we've spent a lot of time with them.

1999
02:10:13,360 --> 02:10:14,100
Or what happened.

2000
02:10:14,320 --> 02:10:15,420
So that's just my opinion.

2001
02:10:15,560 --> 02:10:16,540
I want to make sure it's on the record.

2002
02:10:16,660 --> 02:10:17,300
We have a motion.

2003
02:10:17,580 --> 02:10:18,020
We have a second.

2004
02:10:18,460 --> 02:10:19,300
Is there any more discussion?

2005
02:10:19,300 --> 02:10:21,580
So she's got some of your attention.

2006
02:10:22,420 --> 02:10:22,720
Yes.

2007
02:10:23,020 --> 02:10:25,360
That's what I'm going to do.

2008
02:10:25,800 --> 02:10:27,000
You want to talk about it?

2009
02:10:27,920 --> 02:10:28,020
No.

2010
02:10:28,260 --> 02:10:28,500
No.

2011
02:10:28,700 --> 02:10:29,780
Can someone repeat the motion?

2012
02:10:30,020 --> 02:10:30,140
I'm sorry.

2013
02:10:30,240 --> 02:10:30,640
I'm going to divide.

2014
02:10:30,940 --> 02:10:31,420
The motion.

2015
02:10:31,820 --> 02:10:32,300
Say the motion.

2016
02:10:32,460 --> 02:10:33,260
Would you please repeat the motion?

2017
02:10:33,460 --> 02:10:33,760
I will.

2018
02:10:36,310 --> 02:10:38,550
I'll make a motion recommending the city council

2019
02:10:38,550 --> 02:10:41,790
fund fixing its plight in the amount of $3,000.

2020
02:10:42,390 --> 02:10:42,690
OK.

2021
02:10:42,850 --> 02:10:43,530
And who's seconded?

2022
02:10:44,150 --> 02:10:44,870
There was a second.

2023
02:10:44,990 --> 02:10:46,110
Oh, I second that motion.

2024
02:10:46,530 --> 02:10:47,130
Sarah's second.

2025
02:10:47,250 --> 02:10:47,690
There's a motion.

2026
02:10:47,810 --> 02:10:48,110
A second.

2027
02:10:48,270 --> 02:10:48,750
Any more discussion?

2028
02:10:52,170 --> 02:10:52,650
Any

2029
02:10:58,700 --> 02:10:59,180
opposition?

2030
02:10:59,840 --> 02:11:01,040
All right.

2031
02:11:01,160 --> 02:11:01,340
Next.

2032
02:11:03,870 --> 02:11:05,250
Hey Ruchino, good prizes.

2033
02:11:06,350 --> 02:11:06,650
Alex.

2034
02:11:14,930 --> 02:11:15,410
26.

2035
02:11:17,030 --> 02:11:18,410
Say 26 p.m.

2036
02:11:21,960 --> 02:11:27,240
You know, this was all set out a certain way that you did two at the same time and messed

2037
02:11:27,240 --> 02:11:27,980
the whole thing up.

2038
02:11:28,220 --> 02:11:28,720
We're sorry.

2039
02:11:32,070 --> 02:11:32,670
I blame Tiffany.

2040
02:11:33,010 --> 02:11:33,570
What did I do?

2041
02:11:33,890 --> 02:11:34,350
I don't know.

2042
02:11:36,330 --> 02:11:43,330
I don't think that I don't love them, I do, but I just want to make sure that we do the best.

2043
02:11:43,430 --> 02:11:45,050
Okay, Alex, that's a four.

2044
02:11:45,390 --> 02:11:50,210
Laughter is Good Medicine, a single project support grant, project summary.

2045
02:11:51,150 --> 02:11:58,150
Laughter is Good Medicine is a clean comedy event featuring eight semi-professional and or professional comics,

2046
02:11:58,530 --> 02:12:00,670
each having 12 to 15 minutes to perform.

2047
02:12:00,670 --> 02:12:09,170
Comics are given a strict definition of clean, i.e. no profane words, no vulgar stories, no obscene innuendas.

2048
02:12:09,810 --> 02:12:13,570
Comedy is targeted towards anyone 12 years or older.

2049
02:12:14,390 --> 02:12:19,010
The total projected budget of $3,000 requested amount is $3,000.

2050
02:12:21,090 --> 02:12:23,350
There's a motion. I make

2051
02:12:26,300 --> 02:12:31,400
a motion to recommend the city council to fund this project called

2052
02:12:33,380 --> 02:12:36,280
a doctor's good medicine in the amount of $3,000.

2053
02:12:37,040 --> 02:12:37,700
Is there a second?

2054
02:12:38,260 --> 02:12:38,620
Second.

2055
02:12:38,980 --> 02:12:41,020
Okay, I wanted to ask. Is it?

2056
02:12:43,410 --> 02:12:45,010
I need you to say who's called the second.

2057
02:12:45,290 --> 02:12:46,390
Who's called the second? I'm sorry.

2058
02:12:47,330 --> 02:12:47,670
What?

2059
02:12:48,470 --> 02:12:50,430
Okay, I just need you to recognize the second.

2060
02:12:50,650 --> 02:12:53,710
Okay, Angel. So there's a second. There's a motion. There's a second.

2061
02:12:53,710 --> 02:13:02,670
any conversation. I just want to make sure that comedy is art. It's performance art.

2062
02:13:02,850 --> 02:13:07,210
It's performing arts. It's performing arts. So all these people are artists. And it's free.

2063
02:13:07,330 --> 02:13:11,470
I'm gonna ask that. So is it is it is it compliant with our arts funding policy?

2064
02:13:11,790 --> 02:13:17,850
Yes. Is it compliant with POT? Yes. Yes. It could be. It's attracting people to the theater. It's free. It's public.

2065
02:13:20,830 --> 02:13:24,370
They said they bring fans from other cities.

2066
02:13:24,810 --> 02:13:25,010
Yeah.

2067
02:13:25,950 --> 02:13:26,310
Okay.

2068
02:13:26,690 --> 02:13:28,170
Is there any other discussion?

2069
02:13:29,010 --> 02:13:30,330
There's been a motion.

2070
02:13:30,510 --> 02:13:30,990
There's a second.

2071
02:13:31,190 --> 02:13:31,690
Is there any discussion?

2072
02:13:32,510 --> 02:13:34,470
I would really like for someone to chime in on the hot.

2073
02:13:34,850 --> 02:13:36,150
Does everybody think this is not compliant?

2074
02:13:36,730 --> 02:13:36,970
Amy.

2075
02:13:37,730 --> 02:13:38,250
Yeah.

2076
02:13:38,430 --> 02:13:39,310
Amy's discussion is.

2077
02:13:39,630 --> 02:13:40,850
I have concerns.

2078
02:13:40,850 --> 02:13:52,030
But I think the truth is in putting a new state that they have performers that come from out of town is one of those things that you

2079
02:13:56,420 --> 02:14:00,160
can turn to art, you know, there's no way to prove that they're going to do that.

2080
02:14:00,540 --> 02:14:02,660
There's no way to prove that they're not, they say that they're going to.

2081
02:14:02,960 --> 02:14:05,880
So if they do, they do, yeah, they need the hot pot chariot.

2082
02:14:06,100 --> 02:14:12,140
But does their narrative meet the goal when the answer is yes, it does.

2083
02:14:12,140 --> 02:14:16,280
If it fails, and I know just from my experience,

2084
02:14:16,720 --> 02:14:21,060
if next year, I'm sorry, you didn't put heads in vets,

2085
02:14:21,520 --> 02:14:24,740
then we know that for the next time around.

2086
02:14:26,240 --> 02:14:29,940
You're always thrown to dark, but I do believe that there are narratives,

2087
02:14:30,380 --> 02:14:32,720
unlike some of the others I don't feel I can address it as much,

2088
02:14:32,740 --> 02:14:34,400
and you think your narrative addresses that,

2089
02:14:35,940 --> 02:14:38,920
that they believe that they're going to put heads in vets.

2090
02:14:41,400 --> 02:14:47,120
They're required to within 40 days of project completion to provide a report to the Arts

2091
02:14:47,120 --> 02:14:47,540
Commission.

2092
02:14:47,900 --> 02:14:51,840
Failure to report will result in an eligibility for four grant cycles.

2093
02:14:52,200 --> 02:14:57,640
So that gets them through a fiscal year and that allows for you to make a decision on

2094
02:14:57,640 --> 02:14:59,420
future things based on that reporting.

2095
02:15:00,000 --> 02:15:02,900
We had a motion. We had a second. Did you second it, Angela?

2096
02:15:03,380 --> 02:15:03,740
Yes.

2097
02:15:04,100 --> 02:15:06,060
Angela did the second. Who did the motion?

2098
02:15:07,060 --> 02:15:07,880
I did. Did I?

2099
02:15:08,080 --> 02:15:08,360
Yes.

2100
02:15:09,100 --> 02:15:09,620
Did you do the motion?

2101
02:15:10,280 --> 02:15:12,460
All right. So there's a motion and a second. Any more discussion?

2102
02:15:13,980 --> 02:15:14,460
All in favor?

2103
02:15:17,870 --> 02:15:18,350
Any opposition?

2104
02:15:21,030 --> 02:15:23,510
Okay. First Christian and First Christian, don't do that.

2105
02:15:23,690 --> 02:15:24,050
Next.

2106
02:15:26,800 --> 02:15:28,160
Can you walk faster? We're tired.

2107
02:15:28,800 --> 02:15:29,620
Let's go out.

2108
02:15:34,180 --> 02:15:39,660
You really want accurate notes as I could get as clear as possible.

2109
02:15:50,180 --> 02:15:56,800
Master's Voice Christmas Concert is submitted as a single project support grant, special

2110
02:15:56,800 --> 02:16:03,300
Christmas musical events shared with the community at no cost to their benefit and to benefit

2111
02:16:03,300 --> 02:16:08,680
the Dunkinville Outreach community with non-perishable food item collected.

2112
02:16:10,360 --> 02:16:10,700
Question?

2113
02:16:14,740 --> 02:16:15,380
No, not the other budget.

2114
02:16:15,980 --> 02:16:21,920
$3,000 projected budget and $3,000 requested amount.

2115
02:16:22,160 --> 02:16:26,660
So the only question I have today is one of our, Alex if you want to go back to

2116
02:16:26,660 --> 02:16:37,520
the funding policy. I believe it says religious. So would this be eligible? And if so, is there

2117
02:16:37,520 --> 02:16:45,060
a way that, I mean, how does that work? Because, I mean, if it's Christmas music, it's going to talk about

2118
02:16:45,060 --> 02:16:50,580
Jesus Christ, okay? And I'll talk about him every day. You know, but I'm saying, I'm asking this,

2119
02:16:50,580 --> 02:16:54,660
is would that be, I mean, I don't see a church

2120
02:16:54,660 --> 02:16:55,880
just doing jingle bells.

2121
02:16:56,420 --> 02:16:59,960
So the question becomes is, is there

2122
02:16:59,960 --> 02:17:02,620
is something that we say with the contingency about this

2123
02:17:02,620 --> 02:17:04,580
so that we don't break the grandma guidelines?

2124
02:17:05,080 --> 02:17:07,560
Or do we just see it as an entertainment for our community?

2125
02:17:08,520 --> 02:17:08,700
Tim?

2126
02:17:09,940 --> 02:17:14,220
So prohibitive use is political or religious program.

2127
02:17:14,700 --> 02:17:17,740
It's the like, I think like black tape.

2128
02:17:17,740 --> 02:17:24,800
religious program, you know, I could see if it's promoting, but it's more of a festival.

2129
02:17:25,300 --> 02:17:32,120
The fact that it happens in the church, so if, so if they were asking for a choir scene to run the

2130
02:17:32,120 --> 02:17:36,920
Christmas tree at Christmas time, and so everybody went to the park and they saw it, that's one

2131
02:17:36,920 --> 02:17:41,340
thing. Is it changing if it happens in the church? I don't think so. No. The road is

2132
02:17:41,340 --> 02:17:42,960
I love you to have the means in the church.

2133
02:17:43,060 --> 02:17:44,520
Yeah, I know that doesn't bother me.

2134
02:17:44,580 --> 02:17:46,540
And I also agree with Tim, is it's not,

2135
02:17:46,860 --> 02:17:48,340
when I look at this as religious,

2136
02:17:50,580 --> 02:17:52,280
they're not religious programming,

2137
02:17:52,540 --> 02:17:54,040
meaning they're not having a church service

2138
02:17:54,040 --> 02:17:55,160
and saying,

2139
02:17:55,940 --> 02:17:56,640
it's not like Christmas,

2140
02:17:57,100 --> 02:17:57,620
they need to be doing something.

2141
02:17:57,620 --> 02:17:58,560
There's somebody out in Kent,

2142
02:17:58,880 --> 02:17:59,500
following them, they're,

2143
02:18:00,740 --> 02:18:02,000
it's, and then once again,

2144
02:18:02,100 --> 02:18:03,240
this is first hand knowledge of this,

2145
02:18:03,360 --> 02:18:04,560
but it's a really cool concert

2146
02:18:04,560 --> 02:18:06,840
where they're bringing professional people to sing.

2147
02:18:07,400 --> 02:18:09,260
And they do invite the entire community,

2148
02:18:09,260 --> 02:18:15,140
if they they market it actually really all of it. I love it. So you do it for the week, pay for it or not.

2149
02:18:15,240 --> 02:18:19,100
So you said they'll market it all over? They have to. But I do know that it will not.

2150
02:18:19,480 --> 02:18:24,440
I think it brings a lot of people out. I like the fact that like I said, I don't have any problem with it.

2151
02:18:24,500 --> 02:18:28,580
I just want to make sure we're within our guidelines. And you did say they'll market it all over?

2152
02:18:28,840 --> 02:18:31,240
Thank you. They'll market it. So that it's hot compliant? Yes.

2153
02:18:31,500 --> 02:18:37,080
Yeah, so I think it promotes the hot fund situation where we're going to tourism, many people visit our city.

2154
02:18:37,080 --> 02:18:42,700
You know, I think that it's something annual that they do every year and they get they do the rich real job of good job

2155
02:18:42,700 --> 02:18:43,460
And I think that

2156
02:18:44,160 --> 02:18:51,120
Let's be associated with the things that are going going well in our community as a plus. So I I have a motion to say

2157
02:18:53,980 --> 02:18:59,520
Describe the purpose and artistic vision of the proposed project nationally recognized singing group from Tulsa, Oklahoma

2158
02:18:59,520 --> 02:19:06,220
Okay, that covers your hotel is there a motion

2159
02:19:07,080 --> 02:19:07,600
I have a motion.

2160
02:19:07,740 --> 02:19:08,340
We have a motion.

2161
02:19:08,520 --> 02:19:08,920
Is there a second?

2162
02:19:09,180 --> 02:19:09,440
Second.

2163
02:19:09,840 --> 02:19:10,320
Any second?

2164
02:19:10,580 --> 02:19:11,160
It's all OK.

2165
02:19:13,000 --> 02:19:15,720
I make that motion recommend the City Council Fund,

2166
02:19:16,260 --> 02:19:19,640
the first Christian Church of Buckingville,

2167
02:19:19,700 --> 02:19:22,700
Master of Boys Christmas Contra, with an amount of $3,000.

2168
02:19:24,220 --> 02:19:24,900
OK, wait.

2169
02:19:25,040 --> 02:19:25,160
Yes.

2170
02:19:25,520 --> 02:19:27,300
Could you amend it to 2,000?

2171
02:19:28,460 --> 02:19:30,400
And we don't have a budget again.

2172
02:19:30,800 --> 02:19:32,280
No, I'm not going to amend it.

2173
02:19:34,180 --> 02:19:34,660
Second.

2174
02:19:34,660 --> 02:19:39,780
And if I can speak to it, yeah, I second the motion.

2175
02:19:40,040 --> 02:19:40,680
So we'll probably discuss.

2176
02:19:41,420 --> 02:19:45,300
But also, right, they didn't have a detailed budget.

2177
02:19:45,940 --> 02:19:48,240
So I just wanted to stay aware of, you know,

2178
02:19:49,260 --> 02:19:50,520
if we're going to ask for it for one,

2179
02:19:50,660 --> 02:19:51,820
we should ask for it for everybody.

2180
02:19:52,180 --> 02:19:54,120
Did we ask for it with the Rotary Agreement

2181
02:19:54,120 --> 02:19:54,780
that that would mean?

2182
02:19:54,800 --> 02:19:55,160
Yeah.

2183
02:19:55,540 --> 02:19:55,580
Yeah.

2184
02:19:55,820 --> 02:19:56,560
And the motion's over.

2185
02:19:56,560 --> 02:19:57,540
So you want to make the amendment?

2186
02:19:58,020 --> 02:19:58,200
Yes.

2187
02:19:59,720 --> 02:20:04,060
If we could amend the motion to say

2188
02:20:04,060 --> 02:20:09,060
that we've funded in the amount of $3,000 with the,

2189
02:20:09,760 --> 02:20:10,600
what does this stand for?

2190
02:20:10,660 --> 02:20:11,960
To include a detailed budget.

2191
02:20:12,340 --> 02:20:14,540
On the contingency that submits the tail budget.

2192
02:20:14,800 --> 02:20:15,840
Yeah, provided these are budget.

2193
02:20:16,000 --> 02:20:16,320
I love that.

2194
02:20:16,600 --> 02:20:20,740
So, Ted, we don't really have a policy vote.

2195
02:20:20,900 --> 02:20:23,460
I think anyone submitting a grant,

2196
02:20:23,680 --> 02:20:25,500
especially where Hawthorne's at concerned,

2197
02:20:25,600 --> 02:20:27,500
should be encouraged to,

2198
02:20:29,340 --> 02:20:32,240
to host their people and the local account.

2199
02:20:32,860 --> 02:20:39,920
like if there's a group kind of from Tulsa, you can host them in your homes or you can invite them to stay in the dumpings over tells.

2200
02:20:40,440 --> 02:20:43,580
We're not that only sheet of paper because that's a policy, that's a good idea.

2201
02:20:44,280 --> 02:20:45,440
So that's a real good idea.

2202
02:20:46,260 --> 02:20:49,660
So we have a motion with a friendly amendment and we have a second.

2203
02:20:50,240 --> 02:20:50,440
Yes.

2204
02:20:50,840 --> 02:20:51,440
Any more discussion?

2205
02:20:51,840 --> 02:20:51,980
Yeah.

2206
02:20:52,100 --> 02:20:53,540
That's a great point, Tim. All in favor?

2207
02:20:56,140 --> 02:20:56,500
Okay.

2208
02:20:56,920 --> 02:20:57,080
Okay.

2209
02:20:57,700 --> 02:20:58,160
We'll wait.

2210
02:20:58,160 --> 02:20:59,220
Okay, change order.

2211
02:21:15,030 --> 02:21:15,550
Opposition?

2212
02:21:34,140 --> 02:21:36,180
Okay, let's make a move.

2213
02:21:36,420 --> 02:21:37,620
What is next? Will it check?

2214
02:21:37,620 --> 02:21:40,200
Yeah, school is the most fun place.

2215
02:21:41,560 --> 02:21:45,720
So Miller's Tech is basically my life, this program, this is the mentor program.

2216
02:21:46,460 --> 02:21:51,240
They're basically creating a programming series that allows them to go around.

2217
02:21:52,440 --> 02:21:57,720
The high school students go around and how long is it going to be for the record team?

2218
02:21:58,400 --> 02:21:59,780
Otherwise, Stephanie is going to do it.

2219
02:21:59,780 --> 02:22:04,880
We got 21 minutes to go.

2220
02:22:05,700 --> 02:22:10,860
Mentor moments, single projects, support grant, village tech schools would like to host seniors and

2221
02:22:10,860 --> 02:22:16,600
individuals within the Dunkeville community to participate in an opportunity called Mentor Moments.

2222
02:22:17,260 --> 02:22:22,640
The T students can share their knowledge and collaboratively work with seniors and

2223
02:22:22,640 --> 02:22:27,020
individuals with mobility impairments to create an art piece together.

2224
02:22:27,020 --> 02:22:34,120
But the art piece or pieces could then be displayed in public spaces in Dunganville, such as the community garden or city hall.

2225
02:22:34,680 --> 02:22:41,580
The projected budget is $4,757 and the requested amount is $4,757.

2226
02:22:54,960 --> 02:22:56,100
Okay, is there any discussion?

2227
02:22:56,420 --> 02:22:57,020
Who's the second?

2228
02:22:57,520 --> 02:23:00,720
I kind of vary in coverup for you, thank you.

2229
02:23:00,760 --> 02:23:01,540
Any discussion?

2230
02:23:03,100 --> 02:23:05,020
Just the logic of the hot funds.

2231
02:23:06,040 --> 02:23:07,520
Alright, is a hot fund compliant?

2232
02:23:07,520 --> 02:23:15,520
They want to put up 25 pieces of art in different places in the city that that makes it so that

2233
02:23:15,520 --> 02:23:21,320
people can come from all their other cities to see all of these pieces of art.

2234
02:23:21,700 --> 02:23:26,160
Is that compliant pot?

2235
02:23:28,440 --> 02:23:30,440
Any discussion on that that it would not be?

2236
02:23:40,610 --> 02:23:49,210
Okay, so we have a motion, we have a second, all in favor.

2237
02:23:54,690 --> 02:23:54,950
Okay.

2238
02:23:55,210 --> 02:23:58,110
Wait, did you, Sarah, all opposed?

2239
02:24:02,320 --> 02:24:04,980
Everybody else is, okay, thank you.

2240
02:24:06,180 --> 02:24:09,100
Sarah, was it, were you concerned about policy or hot or was it?

2241
02:24:09,100 --> 02:24:13,360
I think it was like the hollers didn't really understand what was going

2242
02:24:16,080 --> 02:24:16,660
on.

2243
02:24:19,460 --> 02:24:22,380
Music performance, single project support credit.

2244
02:24:23,660 --> 02:24:29,400
The band is a jazz band that performs popular jazz standards and songs from the great American Songbook.

2245
02:24:29,820 --> 02:24:35,840
Band members are made up of two Duncanville, two of Duncanville's own, plus other professional musicians from the Dallas area.

2246
02:24:36,740 --> 02:24:44,060
Here is the budget, total budget, the total budget and the budgeted request is $1,185.

2247
02:24:44,540 --> 02:24:45,700
A breakdown is included.

2248
02:24:48,930 --> 02:24:54,030
This is not one of the ones where I was able to confirm the reservation.

2249
02:24:54,270 --> 02:24:58,650
There were two others that were submitted that I knew that it was at a public space and I wanted to confirm the reservation.

2250
02:24:59,650 --> 02:25:01,370
There's some photos that were submitted.

2251
02:25:02,950 --> 02:25:03,870
This is the ban.

2252
02:25:10,080 --> 02:25:12,040
Okay, discussions, motions,

2253
02:25:14,230 --> 02:25:15,490
okay, does it come forth

2254
02:25:15,490 --> 02:25:17,030
with our funding policy?

2255
02:25:19,920 --> 02:25:21,280
Yes, yes.

2256
02:25:21,540 --> 02:25:26,960
Is it, I think it's hot because the band,

2257
02:25:27,220 --> 02:25:30,680
some of the members are from the Dallas area,

2258
02:25:30,800 --> 02:25:33,100
so outside of the suit, okay.

2259
02:25:33,380 --> 02:25:35,800
So what do y'all think, is it hot?

2260
02:25:36,080 --> 02:25:37,180
Does it meet the hot department?

2261
02:25:39,840 --> 02:25:41,480
The band, it's at nine.

2262
02:25:41,480 --> 02:25:48,850
I definitely get talked to just because it's good stuff.

2263
02:25:49,350 --> 02:25:49,830
Okay.

2264
02:25:50,170 --> 02:25:50,650
Is there a motion?

2265
02:25:52,890 --> 02:25:56,230
I make a motion recommending the city council fund.

2266
02:26:05,890 --> 02:26:08,250
Musical performance is the title.

2267
02:26:08,650 --> 02:26:10,030
Musical performance.

2268
02:26:10,610 --> 02:26:11,750
Journal applies.

2269
02:26:12,570 --> 02:26:18,010
And they amount of $1,185.

2270
02:26:18,690 --> 02:26:19,370
For a second?

2271
02:26:19,530 --> 02:26:19,830
For a second.

2272
02:26:20,110 --> 02:26:21,070
Seven seconds.

2273
02:26:21,070 --> 02:26:21,970
Any discussion?

2274
02:26:23,610 --> 02:26:25,370
All in favor, raise your hand.

2275
02:26:28,370 --> 02:26:28,990
Is there any opposition?

2276
02:26:33,700 --> 02:26:36,460
Please bear with me because you're getting a pet.

2277
02:26:36,980 --> 02:26:37,480
I'm not.

2278
02:26:42,800 --> 02:26:43,900
Yeah, that's it.

2279
02:26:46,340 --> 02:26:48,240
Yes, could we nap that running cat?

2280
02:26:48,840 --> 02:26:51,280
I'm trying, but you keep moving so fast.

2281
02:26:51,420 --> 02:26:52,480
I can't get the math done.

2282
02:26:52,880 --> 02:26:53,920
All right.

2283
02:26:54,060 --> 02:26:55,880
Is anybody concerned at the speed at which we're moving?

2284
02:26:56,160 --> 02:26:56,360
No.

2285
02:26:56,360 --> 02:27:07,500
I think you're around $30,185 that you've committed based on the first three with $6,000,

2286
02:27:08,260 --> 02:27:17,140
the next four came to $14,000, with this it was $10,185, I believe that brings it to

2287
02:27:17,140 --> 02:27:25,080
$30,185, and you are now to your remaining five, you're on painting in the park.

2288
02:27:25,680 --> 02:27:30,740
So Painting of the Park is a single project support grant, just a reminder because I feel

2289
02:27:30,740 --> 02:27:36,120
like that has served you all well. Single project support grants for the funding limit

2290
02:27:36,120 --> 02:27:40,480
is up to $3,000 for first-time applicants. Everybody who's applying tonight is a first-time

2291
02:27:40,480 --> 02:27:45,520
applicant. Painting of the Park is a vibrant outdoor experience where guests can relax

2292
02:27:45,520 --> 02:27:50,320
and unleash their creativity while painting and sipping in a beautiful park setting.

2293
02:27:50,320 --> 02:27:58,300
the event features live music, creating a laid back artistic atmosphere perfect for connecting with others and enjoying nature.

2294
02:27:58,700 --> 02:28:02,380
It's a very detailed budget, a very small print, I apologize.

2295
02:28:03,420 --> 02:28:07,180
The request amount is...

2296
02:28:08,500 --> 02:28:09,200
$1,000.

2297
02:28:10,020 --> 02:28:10,360
That

2298
02:28:15,410 --> 02:28:18,950
sometimes it falls for the very last

2299
02:28:22,410 --> 02:28:22,810
page.

2300
02:28:23,830 --> 02:28:25,070
We have a motion on the table.

2301
02:28:40,050 --> 02:28:49,990
I have a question, are we being, and I don't, a legitimate question, if they apply at the

2302
02:28:49,990 --> 02:28:56,770
wrong grant. Are we being generous by changing it for them? Or should the grant, or should the

2303
02:28:56,770 --> 02:29:04,870
applicants reject it? No, I think this is the first time, and I think that we should give a grace.

2304
02:29:05,230 --> 02:29:10,890
Okay. Give ourselves a grace. So I just want to, I think we need to give the grace because we

2305
02:29:10,890 --> 02:29:17,150
haven't had that education part with that. It says in our policy. So the policy does state

2306
02:29:17,150 --> 02:29:19,830
that we're going to have an education for this and we're going to have it.

2307
02:29:20,110 --> 02:29:22,690
So we're all doing this including applicants for the first time.

2308
02:29:23,430 --> 02:29:26,490
But I think like this time next year you guys are going to be so good at this

2309
02:29:26,490 --> 02:29:28,630
because you've worked through three or four cycles.

2310
02:29:29,030 --> 02:29:31,750
And I think that in the next 18 months what's going to happen is

2311
02:29:32,850 --> 02:29:35,270
the policies and stuff are going to be in the, you know,

2312
02:29:35,410 --> 02:29:36,730
everything will be better, you know.

2313
02:29:37,110 --> 02:29:38,730
But I think they're going to be good.

2314
02:29:39,010 --> 02:29:43,750
And I think it's nice to give them some grace and change the form

2315
02:29:43,750 --> 02:29:47,570
because they want to do a project that would say we're offering them something.

2316
02:29:47,850 --> 02:29:48,730
They don't have to do it.

2317
02:29:48,850 --> 02:29:49,630
They don't have to do it.

2318
02:29:49,850 --> 02:29:51,570
But we're at least offering them something.

2319
02:29:51,650 --> 02:29:51,850
That's valid.

2320
02:29:52,070 --> 02:29:52,210
Yes.

2321
02:29:52,830 --> 02:29:55,370
So is it, does it comport with our funding policy?

2322
02:29:56,570 --> 02:29:56,970
Yes.

2323
02:29:57,190 --> 02:29:57,410
Yes.

2324
02:29:57,790 --> 02:29:58,570
Is it hot?

2325
02:29:59,270 --> 02:29:59,390
Yes.

2326
02:30:00,270 --> 02:30:03,590
Is there any concerns about it not being caught? No.

2327
02:30:06,830 --> 02:30:09,030
So we have a motion on the table, is there a second?

2328
02:30:10,330 --> 02:30:10,670
I'm good.

2329
02:30:12,410 --> 02:30:18,110
So Anne, some more discussion, yeah, Tim, so there is a second.

2330
02:30:19,610 --> 02:30:25,370
Okay, so I'm just going to, I mean, this is, are they proposing putting on an event?

2331
02:30:25,930 --> 02:30:30,600
If it sounds like it's an event in the leg sector?

2332
02:30:30,980 --> 02:30:31,540
Yes.

2333
02:30:32,580 --> 02:30:33,120
In the leg sector.

2334
02:30:33,800 --> 02:30:34,000
Yes.

2335
02:30:34,500 --> 02:30:35,360
Well, people can come out.

2336
02:30:35,960 --> 02:30:36,280
Right.

2337
02:30:36,580 --> 02:30:36,600
And

2338
02:30:38,960 --> 02:30:46,920
they're there, and they put 10,000 together, because you can imagine it, to put an event

2339
02:30:46,920 --> 02:30:52,160
like July or any of those others, you know, whatever they need to go back and stuff.

2340
02:30:54,720 --> 02:30:55,020
Do we,

2341
02:30:57,460 --> 02:31:04,500
the other question I know, and I think I've asked this before, is like, how do we know when they can fly and give them the money they need to fly?

2342
02:31:05,120 --> 02:31:07,340
I know there's avenues and things like that.

2343
02:31:07,580 --> 02:31:08,740
Would you read the policy on that?

2344
02:31:08,920 --> 02:31:09,120
With grants?

2345
02:31:09,700 --> 02:31:09,960
With grants.

2346
02:31:10,040 --> 02:31:11,980
Well, they have to provide a recap and stuff for this.

2347
02:31:12,020 --> 02:31:13,100
That's an important thing.

2348
02:31:13,440 --> 02:31:14,360
That's one of the things.

2349
02:31:14,360 --> 02:31:16,040
We did money first though, right?

2350
02:31:16,040 --> 02:31:22,140
Yeah, and Alex, would you, because you asked a question about how they're going to follow up, would you just read what's in the policy?

2351
02:31:22,640 --> 02:31:29,540
So yes, they are granted the money in advance of the event, rather than it being, that was one thing that you all were very clear about.

2352
02:31:29,700 --> 02:31:33,740
You did not want this to be a reimbursement.

2353
02:31:35,940 --> 02:31:45,220
And so, and this is for the purposes of if they want to come back, that's one of the points of this, and also to get reporting data.

2354
02:31:45,220 --> 02:31:51,600
So, the grantee's responsibilities submit a final report within 40 days of project completion.

2355
02:31:52,040 --> 02:31:57,200
Include documentation of project outcomes, financial details, attendance and public engagement,

2356
02:31:57,500 --> 02:32:00,740
tours or hotel impact at that level.

2357
02:32:01,840 --> 02:32:07,940
Failure to report will result in an eligibility for four grant cycles, which would be the equivalent of a fiscal year.

2358
02:32:09,280 --> 02:32:10,300
Is that sufficient?

2359
02:32:10,300 --> 02:32:19,000
Well, you know, I just, I guess in all of these, since it is, you know, if we don't get them $10,000, I mean, they'll have to find their recipe.

2360
02:32:19,280 --> 02:32:20,840
If they can't use it, they can reduce it.

2361
02:32:21,100 --> 02:32:22,960
Yeah, they don't want to use it, they can reduce it.

2362
02:32:23,080 --> 02:32:23,560
I like that.

2363
02:32:25,140 --> 02:32:25,540
Matt.

2364
02:32:27,240 --> 02:32:30,300
My point concerned is that there's not a date.

2365
02:32:31,120 --> 02:32:35,280
So if we could get them to nail down a specific...

2366
02:32:35,280 --> 02:32:37,040
Should we be friendly with the amendment?

2367
02:32:38,480 --> 02:32:40,160
that they provide us a date.

2368
02:32:40,680 --> 02:32:43,600
So she made, so Angela made a motion.

2369
02:32:44,680 --> 02:32:47,500
I think he made a motion. What do you mean? Yeah. So he'll take it for him.

2370
02:32:48,180 --> 02:32:49,260
I have to

2371
02:32:55,850 --> 02:33:01,610
follow in 2025, so fall, I figure, and I'll get the 10-year-old.

2372
02:33:01,690 --> 02:33:04,910
Oh, it's the next month, though. I wonder if they don't do it for them.

2373
02:33:05,170 --> 02:33:09,210
They didn't give us some money there. And they don't comply with what they've said.

2374
02:33:09,210 --> 02:33:14,990
Now, one of the issues that I had was that I really don't have an individual.

2375
02:33:15,550 --> 02:33:17,490
We just have downtown gallery, our museum.

2376
02:33:18,190 --> 02:33:23,550
Well, I think I read that and I thought that's strange because we don't have a dump at all.

2377
02:33:23,810 --> 02:33:29,050
But I think what they're doing is making a general statement about these kinds of events.

2378
02:33:29,670 --> 02:33:33,370
It's generic. It's not specific to a dump at all.

2379
02:33:34,410 --> 02:33:34,870
It is.

2380
02:33:34,870 --> 02:33:41,670
So the bender packet is downtown gallery and museum of art that is who is a client for it

2381
02:33:41,670 --> 02:33:44,070
And they are located two thousand south of me

2382
02:33:48,280 --> 02:33:53,340
But they're applying for a single so they don't have to be

2383
02:34:06,720 --> 02:34:08,580
They don't even qualify for what they have now.

2384
02:34:08,720 --> 02:34:09,520
200 south men.

2385
02:34:10,000 --> 02:34:11,600
All right, say that again.

2386
02:34:12,160 --> 02:34:16,280
So what I'm saying is that they are asking us for $10,000.

2387
02:34:17,140 --> 02:34:19,400
However, kind of like Angel said earlier,

2388
02:34:19,600 --> 02:34:21,080
it should be switched to half a piece in Florida.

2389
02:34:21,620 --> 02:34:22,220
They only qualify.

2390
02:34:22,580 --> 02:34:24,280
I mean, what they're asking for is a single bit.

2391
02:34:24,740 --> 02:34:26,620
So the max they would be required for, I mean,

2392
02:34:26,880 --> 02:34:29,060
apply for the brochures, 3,000 correct timing,

2393
02:34:29,460 --> 02:34:32,080
and they can qualify for 10,000 the next time they apply.

2394
02:34:32,540 --> 02:34:34,120
And they successfully do this a bit.

2395
02:34:34,120 --> 02:34:38,960
So right now the motion is on the table and it was proposed that we give them

2396
02:34:38,960 --> 02:34:43,380
$3,000 for this event and then somebody seconded it.

2397
02:34:43,700 --> 02:34:45,500
So Anne I think you seconded it.

2398
02:34:45,680 --> 02:34:48,360
And then you said in light that they give us a date.

2399
02:34:48,980 --> 02:34:49,660
I think they did.

2400
02:34:50,020 --> 02:34:51,740
Hey Alex, did you write down who seconded it?

2401
02:34:52,000 --> 02:34:52,240
Yes.

2402
02:34:52,800 --> 02:34:53,720
Okay, I heard you.

2403
02:34:54,100 --> 02:34:58,140
I have a question that they call themselves the Downtown Gallery Museum of Art.

2404
02:34:58,260 --> 02:35:00,580
Why don't we know about this space or something?

2405
02:35:00,940 --> 02:35:03,200
Oh yeah, that's not in the flower shop.

2406
02:35:17,680 --> 02:35:23,080
Okay, so there's a motion in the second. Any more discussion on it? Is it so? Yes.

2407
02:35:23,900 --> 02:35:24,580
I

2408
02:35:25,440 --> 02:35:32,300
Produe projects which they're thinking about it looks that things seem very inflated and they're talking about free sketched

2409
02:35:32,300 --> 02:35:33,920
campuses and

2410
02:35:34,520 --> 02:35:36,860
200 people which seems low

2411
02:35:36,860 --> 02:35:40,320
But it looks like they're putting on a big event

2412
02:35:41,680 --> 02:35:47,660
And it's just the figures all seems cute to me. I guess I'm supporting the three thousand

2413
02:35:53,180 --> 02:35:59,940
Well, I don't know. I've got the attitude about the pre-scash gun that's just for the record, just for the record. Sorry.

2414
02:36:00,520 --> 02:36:07,760
Alright, so we have any more discussion? Any more discussion? So we have a motion, we have a second. Any more discussion? Alright, all in favor?

2415
02:36:12,120 --> 02:36:13,120
Don't be pressured.

2416
02:36:14,440 --> 02:36:15,420
I have a reservation sign.

2417
02:36:16,140 --> 02:36:16,540
It's there.

2418
02:36:17,980 --> 02:36:20,660
I quite sometimes get a look and see if I can do with it.

2419
02:36:20,780 --> 02:36:21,500
Do the job.

2420
02:36:45,550 --> 02:36:55,290
Rhythm of culture is a live performing arts event featuring music spoken word and cultural

2421
02:36:55,290 --> 02:36:59,410
for Australia, Italian, led by Kailin Hayes,

2422
02:36:59,830 --> 02:37:01,730
a rising voice in contemporary performance.

2423
02:37:02,310 --> 02:37:05,010
This unique event will highlight the power of sound,

2424
02:37:05,210 --> 02:37:08,650
rhythm, and identity while offering an inspiring experience

2425
02:37:08,650 --> 02:37:11,170
that's open to the public at the Dunkinville Amateur.

2426
02:37:13,230 --> 02:37:16,070
Total projected budget is $9,300.

2427
02:37:24,860 --> 02:37:28,820
So because of the fact that they did not separate out

2428
02:37:28,820 --> 02:37:30,040
because this was one of those

2429
02:37:30,040 --> 02:37:31,380
that was not sent through the form,

2430
02:37:31,380 --> 02:37:37,320
This was sent by email as this I went ahead deduced that what the request was was the

2431
02:37:37,320 --> 02:37:44,220
$9,300 because there was no nothing that pulled that out or made a separate request for a dollar amount other than this

2432
02:37:44,960 --> 02:37:46,300
This is a single event

2433
02:37:51,520 --> 02:37:55,760
Is it is it comport with our funding policy is

2434
02:38:00,370 --> 02:38:00,790
it hot

2435
02:38:06,470 --> 02:38:12,010
What I like the most about some of these applications, and especially, I mean, even in this one, is

2436
02:38:13,710 --> 02:38:18,850
this expression they're using, I love the fact that they're using music as the art,

2437
02:38:19,070 --> 02:38:23,510
but they're also making certain that they're using local, like, the Dunkeville Amphitheater.

2438
02:38:23,890 --> 02:38:26,850
I think it's good that it's free. I think it's great that it's in a public space.

2439
02:38:27,330 --> 02:38:28,030
So that's what I like.

2440
02:38:28,330 --> 02:38:29,990
So for the record, it's called a co-op.

2441
02:38:31,170 --> 02:38:47,630
Well, I was going to say, hopefully the city council will make sure that they, and it's a big deal, and it is, it's named after police officers who were built in a lot of duty, but yeah, I want to make sure that they get the name right.

2442
02:38:47,850 --> 02:38:49,130
Is there a motion?

2443
02:38:51,310 --> 02:39:05,250
I make a motion recommending the City Council fund the rhythms of culture of celebration for music and voice project in the amount of 3,000.

2444
02:39:05,550 --> 02:39:06,130
Is there a second?

2445
02:39:06,410 --> 02:39:06,510
Second.

2446
02:39:06,890 --> 02:39:08,090
Okay, there's a second.

2447
02:39:08,830 --> 02:39:16,110
Tim, did we get any Instagram or anything from Caitlin Haynes?

2448
02:39:16,110 --> 02:39:18,450
do you see artists that will be performing primarily?

2449
02:39:19,230 --> 02:39:21,410
Do we have any idea what you're talking about?

2450
02:39:22,830 --> 02:39:25,570
I did not dig in on her Instagram.

2451
02:39:26,530 --> 02:39:28,550
Yeah, I was kind of curious on her following,

2452
02:39:28,670 --> 02:39:31,370
but also to the other artists that

2453
02:39:31,370 --> 02:39:33,170
are going to be part of this lineup,

2454
02:39:33,810 --> 02:39:35,410
I'm just curious if they're local,

2455
02:39:35,790 --> 02:39:38,270
or what kind of audience they'll be bringing in.

2456
02:39:38,610 --> 02:39:40,830
Like, are they from other cities, or are they from a state?

2457
02:39:41,090 --> 02:39:42,450
To join mecha-finding they met,

2458
02:39:42,550 --> 02:39:44,070
requiring that they're local artists,

2459
02:39:44,070 --> 02:39:45,790
or far away artists.

2460
02:39:46,090 --> 02:39:51,670
So just remember a lot of people that we used have not been local, so just remember that.

2461
02:39:51,970 --> 02:39:52,150
Yeah.

2462
02:39:52,390 --> 02:39:55,090
Because if we required them to use local, then that means we need to use local art.

2463
02:39:55,130 --> 02:39:55,310
Oh, yeah.

2464
02:39:55,490 --> 02:39:56,530
No, I didn't think it was an issue.

2465
02:39:56,610 --> 02:39:59,930
I was just wondering like if it was going to break the point, regardless of their local

2466
02:39:59,930 --> 02:40:00,250
or not.

2467
02:40:00,310 --> 02:40:00,510
Right.

2468
02:40:01,330 --> 02:40:03,090
I don't have a preference for it.

2469
02:40:03,190 --> 02:40:03,390
Okay.

2470
02:40:04,630 --> 02:40:05,590
So we have a motion.

2471
02:40:05,710 --> 02:40:06,170
We have a second.

2472
02:40:06,310 --> 02:40:07,050
Is there any more discussion?

2473
02:40:09,300 --> 02:40:09,600
Okay.

2474
02:40:09,640 --> 02:40:10,200
All in favor.

2475
02:40:10,900 --> 02:40:11,580
There's your hand.

2476
02:40:16,570 --> 02:40:17,190
All opposed.

2477
02:40:22,040 --> 02:40:23,080
Moving on.

2478
02:40:31,830 --> 02:40:39,330
Rhythms of the Heartbeat Dance Experience. This is an annual arts program

2479
02:40:39,330 --> 02:40:46,650
grant for non-profits. This event will feature various dance forms about health and wellness

2480
02:40:46,650 --> 02:40:51,430
among our community members. Dance is an excellent means of cardiac engagement for

2481
02:40:51,430 --> 02:40:57,150
ages, Pink Diamonds has a mission of providing health awareness and exercise events that

2482
02:40:57,150 --> 02:41:04,410
are free and open to the public. A full detailed budget, 5,800 is the total budget, the amount

2483
02:41:04,410 --> 02:41:16,970
requested is $3,000, and this is for, the grant category is for a annual arts grant

2484
02:41:16,970 --> 02:41:22,840
but only asked for $3,000.

2485
02:41:29,460 --> 02:41:34,140
And again, you know, our volunteers asked that we do a lot of education.

2486
02:41:34,840 --> 02:41:41,080
I will say that this particular applicant had some challenges with the form,

2487
02:41:41,200 --> 02:41:46,140
the form for whatever reason was a challenge on the day that she was applying

2488
02:41:46,140 --> 02:41:51,240
and then she went through the extra effort of copy and pasting, putting it all into work

2489
02:41:51,240 --> 02:41:56,340
So that could be part of the reason why the application submitted like this

2490
02:41:58,500 --> 02:42:01,340
Discussion I really like this because it's a couple things

2491
02:42:02,200 --> 02:42:04,000
One of the I think that is

2492
02:42:05,400 --> 02:42:10,480
And I think it's also I love the fact that it's keeping to active in our community and it's also for good cause

2493
02:42:10,480 --> 02:42:15,140
So I think it kind of ties in that community engagement with us also showing that we care about

2494
02:42:15,980 --> 02:42:18,700
And I think that it's really would be a single

2495
02:42:19,880 --> 02:42:23,700
event, even though it's an annual event that they have, there are any estimates for a single

2496
02:42:23,700 --> 02:42:26,420
support for this one event that they had throughout the year, correct?

2497
02:42:27,400 --> 02:42:30,220
So I do think it brings people from all over.

2498
02:42:30,840 --> 02:42:35,100
I think there's over, there was like maybe 300 people that it sent in last year and I

2499
02:42:35,100 --> 02:42:36,560
think when they first started off it was like 200.

2500
02:42:37,400 --> 02:42:39,060
Okay, 200.

2501
02:42:39,360 --> 02:42:43,420
So I know it was a couple of hundred versus like first couple of times I think it was

2502
02:42:43,420 --> 02:42:44,480
like 10 or 20 or 30.

2503
02:42:44,720 --> 02:42:48,620
So they've grown it and there's so many people from Dallas that come and put

2504
02:42:48,620 --> 02:42:55,500
worth and stuff, so I think it makes us look really good and I think that incorporating the arts part

2505
02:42:55,500 --> 02:43:00,360
as far as the dance and stuff, I think that's really good. Just like that, this is one of the ones

2506
02:43:00,360 --> 02:43:07,340
that was, it shows that it's in a public space. I gave follow-up and she has reserved that space.

2507
02:43:07,480 --> 02:43:13,240
That space is reserved and already committed. So let me ask the commission, is it eligible for

2508
02:43:13,240 --> 02:43:21,240
public funding policy. Is it hot? Is there a motion? Discussion? I make a motion

2509
02:43:21,240 --> 02:43:25,740
recommending the City Council fund the rhythm of the heartbeat dance experience

2510
02:43:25,740 --> 02:43:31,000
in the amount of $3,000. Is there a second? Seconded. Any more discussion?

2511
02:43:32,280 --> 02:43:35,680
you doing good in? Okay. All in favor?

2512
02:43:41,820 --> 02:43:47,320
Okay. All opposed? I'm not opposed. I'm just abstaining only because I'm a member of the group.

2513
02:43:47,900 --> 02:43:48,420
Oh.

2514
02:43:49,280 --> 02:43:50,540
So, I'm abstaining.

2515
02:43:51,140 --> 02:43:51,980
Are you going to answer?

2516
02:43:53,520 --> 02:43:54,460
I'll be there.

2517
02:43:55,480 --> 02:43:57,000
I'm just abstaining.

2518
02:43:57,400 --> 02:43:57,880
Carry on.

2519
02:43:58,720 --> 02:44:03,080
Yo, we got one more application in 9.02, y'all better do that. Let's go.

2520
02:44:03,540 --> 02:44:05,840
Our last application for our first round of the game.

2521
02:44:05,960 --> 02:44:08,000
No, it's happening. You're the one who needs to talk to us.

2522
02:44:09,500 --> 02:44:11,520
No, nobody talks to other people too, Ron.

2523
02:44:13,700 --> 02:44:14,740
That's actually about it.

2524
02:44:15,080 --> 02:44:17,840
All right, hold up. One second.

2525
02:44:25,680 --> 02:44:26,780
Well, I appreciate the same.

2526
02:44:36,340 --> 02:44:46,840
Okay, Superfly Group, Superfly Studio is submitted as a single-project support group.

2527
02:44:47,840 --> 02:44:48,900
Saw that reaction.

2528
02:44:52,210 --> 02:44:57,390
Superfly is a hip-hop-based arts initiative that empowers youth and communities through

2529
02:44:57,390 --> 02:44:59,330
for dance, creativity, and cultural experience.

2530
02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:05,400
Rooted in authenticity and healing, it creates safe spaces for connection, growth, and celebration.

2531
02:45:06,260 --> 02:45:11,340
The total project budget is $20,000, requested amount is $20,000.

2532
02:45:17,480 --> 02:45:24,620
Oh, total project budget, I apologize, it is, and it is correct on my form, I typed it wrong there.

2533
02:45:25,000 --> 02:45:28,240
But I did that probably close to the end of last night's meeting.

2534
02:45:36,900 --> 02:45:48,340
Well, no, the total project budget is $20,000, but it's $15,000.

2535
02:45:48,600 --> 02:45:50,860
All right, any discussion on this?

2536
02:45:52,500 --> 02:45:53,600
Oh, wait a minute.

2537
02:45:54,060 --> 02:45:54,960
She is absolutely right.

2538
02:45:54,960 --> 02:45:59,860
There is two, she points out that there is 15,000 here.

2539
02:46:00,260 --> 02:46:05,080
And the amount on the document for the budget shows requested amount $20,000.

2540
02:46:05,300 --> 02:46:07,780
It's a single-project support grant, so that's $3,000 a minute.

2541
02:46:09,040 --> 02:46:10,440
Thank you, Mr. Chair, thank you.

2542
02:46:10,660 --> 02:46:12,820
And where is the old rail station?

2543
02:46:13,280 --> 02:46:15,720
202 West Side, right there.

2544
02:46:15,940 --> 02:46:17,620
It's right across from the track.

2545
02:46:18,280 --> 02:46:19,460
Right across from the Rice Church.

2546
02:46:20,340 --> 02:46:22,860
The Rice Church, but over on the same street.

2547
02:46:43,680 --> 02:46:49,140
We have a second, 15 second, okay, so is this compliant with our arts funding policy?

2548
02:46:49,140 --> 02:46:52,960
I'm not sure. I feel like it's a commercial venture.

2549
02:46:53,320 --> 02:46:56,980
I mean, they're doing performances maybe,

2550
02:46:57,120 --> 02:46:59,020
but it looks like it's commercial.

2551
02:46:59,820 --> 02:47:01,480
There is an admission fee of $10.

2552
02:47:02,220 --> 02:47:02,980
Is that it?

2553
02:47:04,360 --> 02:47:06,900
So what are the funding policies with tickets?

2554
02:47:08,940 --> 02:47:10,620
We don't have any.

2555
02:47:12,900 --> 02:47:14,740
And so businesses can apply.

2556
02:47:18,880 --> 02:47:22,460
This is a range of dates, is there more than one event?

2557
02:47:22,680 --> 02:47:23,880
I was right just now, remember?

2558
02:47:24,220 --> 02:47:25,340
Lance has a question?

2559
02:47:25,680 --> 02:47:25,940
Okay.

2560
02:47:26,680 --> 02:47:28,040
He says there's a range of dates.

2561
02:47:28,980 --> 02:47:31,140
So does that mean there's a multiple events?

2562
02:47:31,620 --> 02:47:33,860
Are they asked really, do they fill out the ones?

2563
02:47:33,860 --> 02:47:34,980
I mean, it's not.

2564
02:47:35,680 --> 02:47:38,260
Is there an annual art program?

2565
02:47:48,220 --> 02:47:51,820
That's why they're asking for the last workshop and events.

2566
02:47:55,960 --> 02:47:57,180
You want to talk about this?

2567
02:47:57,600 --> 02:48:03,640
Well, yeah, because we changed the others from annual to single because it was one event.

2568
02:48:03,640 --> 02:48:09,880
but this is, or multiple, then it's just like a whole season from September 8th to December 20th.

2569
02:48:10,080 --> 02:48:14,140
Why wouldn't we just change it to the annual arts program grant?

2570
02:48:14,380 --> 02:48:14,920
I agree.

2571
02:48:15,400 --> 02:48:18,020
This is not a series of presentations, it's classes.

2572
02:48:18,820 --> 02:48:23,360
And the teaching and training, they may have to do it at the bottom one, but it doesn't.

2573
02:48:24,080 --> 02:48:25,720
Yeah, it's not what they have to do.

2574
02:48:26,320 --> 02:48:28,600
It's not, it's not an end.

2575
02:48:28,600 --> 02:48:31,920
Yeah, I'm not going to look at it so they can't, they're going to think.

2576
02:48:31,920 --> 02:48:34,320
What are they eligible for, just disabled?

2577
02:48:35,120 --> 02:48:38,280
Because they're individual artists now, they're not private.

2578
02:48:38,780 --> 02:48:38,940
Yes.

2579
02:48:39,240 --> 02:48:39,440
OK.

2580
02:48:41,100 --> 02:48:42,740
We're trying to help them a little bit.

2581
02:48:44,020 --> 02:48:51,520
So we just think about it, an artist is

2582
02:48:51,520 --> 02:48:52,880
able to afford a space.

2583
02:48:53,040 --> 02:48:55,340
They have a space over there in their complex there.

2584
02:48:55,700 --> 02:48:57,380
And they want to do art stuff there.

2585
02:48:58,140 --> 02:48:59,800
And I guess that's a commission.

2586
02:48:59,980 --> 02:49:01,260
We want to support that kind of stuff.

2587
02:49:05,180 --> 02:49:07,740
We have a motion, do we have a second?

2588
02:49:08,760 --> 02:49:10,120
All right, Tiffany's second.

2589
02:49:10,300 --> 02:49:11,660
We have a motion and a second.

2590
02:49:12,040 --> 02:49:12,600
All those in favor?

2591
02:49:12,760 --> 02:49:13,520
Wait, any more discussion?

2592
02:49:13,960 --> 02:49:14,300
Concerned?

2593
02:49:14,360 --> 02:49:17,060
Do we just have a line item again?

2594
02:49:17,440 --> 02:49:19,500
What are some of this so far?

2595
02:49:19,960 --> 02:49:20,360
Are we good?

2596
02:49:21,380 --> 02:49:22,040
We're more than good.

2597
02:49:22,320 --> 02:49:25,480
Before this, you are at $39,185,

2598
02:49:25,740 --> 02:49:27,780
based on my due and quip title.

2599
02:49:28,120 --> 02:49:28,900
Okay, thank you.

2600
02:49:29,560 --> 02:49:34,440
So we have a motion, we have a second. Any more discussion on this? All right, all in favor?

2601
02:49:35,100 --> 02:49:35,980
All right.

2602
02:49:38,950 --> 02:49:40,090
Wait, you know what? Take a picture.

2603
02:49:40,330 --> 02:49:40,510
Any opposition?

2604
02:49:41,650 --> 02:49:42,010
No.

2605
02:49:42,430 --> 02:49:43,410
Are our hands up?

2606
02:49:43,590 --> 02:49:43,690
Oh.

2607
02:49:43,950 --> 02:49:44,290
What?

2608
02:49:44,690 --> 02:49:45,010
No.

2609
02:49:46,210 --> 02:49:46,750
Hold on.

2610
02:49:47,470 --> 02:49:48,510
No, no, no. Any opposition?

2611
02:49:48,930 --> 02:49:48,970
Oh.

2612
02:49:49,210 --> 02:49:49,710
No, no, no.

2613
02:49:50,150 --> 02:49:50,510
Oh.

2614
02:49:50,870 --> 02:49:51,550
Oh, no.

2615
02:49:53,210 --> 02:49:55,110
I was taking a picture. I'm all proud of us.

2616
02:49:55,430 --> 02:49:55,610
Okay.

2617
02:49:57,450 --> 02:49:58,490
Did you do against?

2618
02:49:59,490 --> 02:50:03,230
do it again, because there were hands up when you said against, so.

2619
02:50:03,670 --> 02:50:03,990
Okay.

2620
02:50:04,330 --> 02:50:06,890
We were posing for a selfie.

2621
02:50:08,970 --> 02:50:12,190
Okay, any against? Any opposition?

2622
02:50:13,170 --> 02:50:13,690
Thank you.

2623
02:50:15,630 --> 02:50:16,750
All right, ladies and gentlemen.

2624
02:50:17,010 --> 02:50:17,710
I have a large commission.

2625
02:50:22,750 --> 02:50:23,690
It's not a way.

2626
02:50:24,050 --> 02:50:24,750
Business is a burn.
