  • Advertise and promote tourism so as to develop and increase tourist attendance through the generation of publicity;
  • Promote arts and cultural events;
  • Demonstrate additional government or private sector support is available to the project in an amount at least two (2) times the grant amount. (For “start-up” organizations that have not previously received City funding, a demonstration of funds from non-City sources in an amount equal to the City requested amount (1 to 1 match) may be accepted.)
  • Facilitate the acquisition, final-stage design, construction, repair, renovation, rehabilitation, or other capital improvements of historic and cultural venues, recreational facilities, and trails.
