Louisville Cultural Council President's Notes for May, 2014 meeting: Park Hill Brass concert at Arboretum, progress report: • Jackie Victor, one spokesperson for Park Hill Brass is applied for a $500 grant from CU from their music performance funds which should be awarded later this month and Park Hill Brass has held the date for us. • I contacted Mike Frontczak about the possibility of seeking a contribution from whichever vendor does tree work at the Arboretum, but have not yet heard back. Food Truck Ordinance • The City Council has approved on first reading an ordinance which allows food trucks associated with events reserved inside the Louisville Center for the Arts in Memory Square Parks. SCFD Grant Review • Susan, Denice and Suzanne attended the 8 minute review session in front of the County Cultural Commission. Our request for project funds in addition to general operating support is not permitted under the Boulder County guidelines and so we agreed to withdraw that portion of our request. We did point out that our group represents 18,000+ citizen /taxpayers and we are constrained by the rules from asking for more than $3,000 since all of our administration is done by volunteers. Suzanne will be investigating if /how we can structure our financial arrangement with the City of Louisville to include expenses incurred on our behalf (particularly her salary /benefit costs) in our financial profile to allow us to ask for additional dollars. In recent years, our award has been $1500. Lafayette, with approximately 25,000 residents, received $10,500 for 2012 according to the last published annual report for SCFD.
