| | 3. | | New Work Fund
Minutes note: - Downtown BID Request
Members discussed that the Downtown BID's request did not respond to the RFP process, that the project seems reactive and not collaborative, that the project is not really an art project but a marketing project, that the request is to compensate artists, and that members wanted to support the project despite having concerns.
Ms. Witte said that the project probably came after the RFP deadline and that $2,400 in New Work Fund was still available.
Member Layden moved to recommend approval of $2,400 in New Work Funds to the Downtown BID project for its artists directly. Member Murphy seconded. There was no objection.
