RE: Discussion Points for 2013 RFP Discussion
• Review the Special Event Rating Grid, and provide feedback on the following:
o Does this provide an accurate reflection of the criteria for funding?
o Does it work for all types of events?
• Should specific parameters be determined as to how to split funding between
destination, participatory, ambient , community and/or new events? Are these the proper
categories for events, or do the y need to be categorized?
• How can we better incentivize the event producers to embrace the strategy that has
been developed in cooperation with the VLMD and raise the bar on the events?
• Should there be a “required” meeting for every event receiving publi c funding with the
VLMD to determine accurate brand messaging? Set a minimum funding amount for the
requirement to kick -in - i.e. all events receiving $10,000 or more?
• Are there specific time frames that should be “encouraged?” Should a Memorial Day
event still be the primary target for a new, iconic event? Others?
• Incorporate language asking for detail on proposed venues, and whether or not they
have been secured.
• Maintain the s urvey requirement for recaps? Set a minimum funding amount for the
requireme nt to kick -in - i.e. all events receiving $10,000 or more?
