(other civic organizations may join the board if they contribute
financially.) The joint venture board's main objective is downtown
marketing (events/promotions and retail recruitment); the CRA and
DDA assume the responsibilities of restoration and loan programs;
the Chamber and merchant's association's main responsibility is
economic development. After pooling resources, the annual budget
consists of $100,000 plus in-kind services. The organizations that
comprise the joint venture are housed together in downtown Delray
Beach in order to share resources. Paid staff members of the Joint
Venture are not allowed to vote. .
Ms. Ferrar, the downtown coordinator was hired by and reports
directly to the Joint Venture Board. A one year marketing plan was
designed by Ms. Ferrar with the help of approximately 25 various
civic groups and organizations such as the Parks and Recreation
department, neighborhood organizations, historical society, service
groups, etc. Again, the resources (of these organizations) were
pooled for use in joint events/promotions. The downtown
coordinator does not spend joint venture dollars for
promotions/events, etc. but assists the civic groups in spending
their dollars wisely.
Item 3 - DDB/eRA Joint Effort
The consensus of the DDB, CRA and the Chamber of Commerce
members was that some aspects of the joint venture effort should be
pursued for Clearwater.
It was agreed that the DDB & CRA will work together to revise
the DDB ordinance that will include the function, responsibilities
and duties of the DDB. Peter Gozza recommended that the eRA be
responsible for the "bricks, mortar and design" of the downtown and
allow the DDB the responsibility of promotions.
CRA supports and encourages the four "main street concept"
committees (Design, Government Liaison, Promotions & Business
Recruitment).
It was agreed that if Judi Hackett is hired as the DDB
Consultant, she and Peter Gozza research properties that could be
used,as joint housing. The expenses (rent & staffing) for the
joint office could be discussed at a future DDB/CRA meeting.
The formal goals and strategies of the DDB were reviewed, the
consensus reached was that tQe concept of the goals and strategies
be supported as a joint effort between the Downtown Development
Board, Community Redevelopment Agency, Downtown Clearwater
Association, Downtown Comes Alive, Jazz Holiday Foundation, the
Chamber of Commerce and the City of Clearwater. strategy 1.5 "The
DDB will cooperate with a newly forming information Committee of
businesses owners who are parishioners of the Church of
Scientology" was not supported and will be eliminated.
Item 4 - DDB staff Assistance
The CRA will continue to provide the DDB with staff
assistance, at the current rate of pay, until the DDB hires staff
support.
