CITY OF CENTERVILLE <br />REQUEST FOR ACTION <br />Verville <br />Agenda Item # <br />Department: <br />Requested Meeting Date: <br />VIII.1.a,b <br />EDA <br />September 16, 2020 <br />TITLE OF ISSUE: <br />Main Street Marketers Service Package <br />BACKGROUND AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: <br />Centerville has received approximately $304,000 in federal CARES Act funds to mitigate costs due to the <br />pandemic. A deadline of November 15, 2020 is in place to spend these funds. Much like the city is ensuring <br />we are properly stocked for the remainder of the pandemic with PPE and other supplies, we are also working to <br />prepare for our other needs. One of those identified and eligible needs is business assistance. The EDA's <br />CenterStage program was formed in direct response to the COVID crisis to prop up our local businesses. In an <br />effort to continue that program long enough to feature all of our businesses, we have asked our partners (Main <br />Street Marketers and the Quad Community Press) to prepare service and ad packages, respectively. <br />The attached proposals will fund the CenterStage program through the full compliment of 80 businesses in our <br />directory. <br />COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING: <br />$3,000 - Main St. Marketers & $9,249 Quad Area Press; EDA General Funds - Reimbursable thru CARES Act <br />REQUESTED ACTION: <br />Motion to approve proposals from Main Street Marketers and the Quad Community Press. <br />For Clerk's Use: <br />SUPPORTED DOCUMENTS ATTACHED <br />Motion By: <br />Resolution Ordinance Contract Minutes Plan Map <br />Second By: <br />Vote Record: Aye Nay <br />Hanzal <br />Giovinazzo <br />Other (specify) Proposals <br />0 Weatherhead <br />0 Love <br />0 Wilharber <br />Refer to: <br />Consent <br />Tabled Until: <br />Regular <br />Other: <br />
