AGENDA ITEM — 3E <br />EN HILLS <br />MEMORANDUM <br />DATE: May 13, 2024 <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br />FROM: Dave Perrault, City Administrator <br />SUBJECT: Twin Cities Gateway Funding Discussion <br />Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: <br />N/A N/A N/A <br />Council Should Consider <br />Council should provide further guidance on how to spend 2024 Twin Cities Gateway Grant <br />monies. <br />Background <br />For 2024, the City Council has received $18,390 from the Twin Cities Gateway (TCG) Visitors <br />Bureau; this money comes from a portion of the lodging tax that the City charges its hotels and <br />remits to the visitors bureau. Last year, the City chose to spend the money on the first annual <br />Ribfest and activities put on by Bethel University, both entities received half of the City's overall <br />grant. Staff reached out to the organizers of Ribfest and they are planning to hold the event <br />again, likely in the fall. Members of the Council recently suggested ideas on how to spend this <br />money, ideas such as Ribfest, Bethel University and Mounds View High School were put <br />forward. The City Council should identify entities or activities it wants to potentially utilize this <br />money for and Staff can begin to work with the organizations to see if there is a viable path <br />forward. Below are the stipulations put forward by TCG regarding how the money can be spent; <br />in short, the money is intended to bring outside visitors into the City. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
