Review and consider funding CTBID grant applications from Carisbad Music Festival and the Multiple Sclerosis Society. 2. Adopt Resolution No. 2015-1 allocating amounts to be determined to the Carisbad Music Festival and the Mulitiple Sclerosis Society. ITEM EXPLANATION: In 2008, the CTBID board approved the guidelines to establish a formal grant program. The objectives ofthe grant program are to: Fund projects or events that are going to increase the overnight stays in hotels; Encourage the development of innovative tourism products; Promote collaboration within and across sectors of the tourism industry; Reach important travel segments such as multicultural, family and senior markets; Strengthen the marketing capacity of our partnering organizations; and Combine the resources ofthe CTBID and its tourism partners to leverage their collective marketing efforts. The CTBID Board appropriated $50,000 in their 2014-15 budget to fund these grants. As part of their contract with the CTBID, the VisitCarisbad Board reviews the applications and makes funding recommendations to the CTBID Board. The VisitCarlsbad Board reviews the requests based on the following: Overall program promotes overnight stays in hotels Program included a "hotel tie in" (ie special rate or package) Compelling nature of the project and its potential image impact for the region Strength of marketing and public relations plan, including partnerships Likelihood that the project will receive publicity outside the San Diego Market Time of year that the event occurs As a result of their review and evaluation, the VisitCarisbad Board, to date, has recommended, and the CTBID Board has approved, funding for four of the requests for a total of $40,000. The table in Exhibit 2 summarizes prior funding of CTBID grants. Two applications have been recently received from the Carisbad Music Festival Walk for $10,000 and the Multiple Sclerosis Society for their Bike MS event for $10,000. The VisitCarlsbad Board reviewed these applications and met with applicants and is recommending $10,000 in funding for the MS Society Bike MS event grant. Both of the applications are included in the exhibits. FISCAL IMPACT: The CTBID 2014-15 Budget contains an appropriation of $50,000 for CTBID Grants of which $10,000 is still available. No further appropriation is required. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: This action does not approve any projects that will have a physical adverse affect on the environment so it falls within the general rule under CEQA that this is not a project (CEQA Regulation 153789(b)).

An extension of the August Carlsbad Music Festival, the Village Walk is an admission-free, community event featuring music performed in outdoor and indoor spaces throughout the historic Village of Carlsbad. The wide variety of performance venues will range from public parks and art galleries, to local music stores and even a 19th century chapel. Drawing annual crowds of over 3500 community members and cultural tourists, the Village Walk runs from 4-10pm with 20-minute sets starting every half hour. With over 50 performances to choose from, a Village Walk attendee can create their own concert journey through the Village. Some of the adventurous musicians scheduled to appear at this year's event include the jazz meets chamber music of Nathan Hubbard Quartet, contemporary cello of Jennifer Bewerse, cinematic folk rock of Trouble in the Wind, and tradition Persian music of Kourosh Taghavi. Carlsbad Music Festival is a 501(c)(3) organization that aims to engage and inspire local, national, and international communities of composers, performers, creators, and concert-goers through world-class performances of adventurous music. CMF is committed to premiering new works, programming fresh, compelling music, and providing professional opportunities for established and emerging performers. Founded in 2004 by Matt McBane, CMF strives to enhance Carlsbad, Califomia as a cultural center; engaging diverse audiences and providing wide accessibility by integrating events within community spaces. Now in its twelfth season, CMF has achieved a level of artistic integrity and vision that has been praised as "one ofthe area's most innovative music showcases" (KPBS, San Diego's NPR affiliate), "phenomenal" (San Diego Union-Tribune), "a starry array of new music specialists" (Alex Ross, The Rest is Noise), and "magnificently enlightening" (Los Angeles Times). In 2010, CMF won ASCAP's Award for Adventurous Programming. How will the program benefit Carlsbad tourism? The Carlsbad Music Festival's Free Village Music Walk will benefit Carlsbad tourism both directly and indirectly: directly through the tourists who travel to Carisbad for the event, and indirectly through the enhancement of Carlsbad's reputation as a cultural destination and through subsequent visits to Carlsbad by Carisbad Music Festival event attendees. The Carlsbad Music Festival's strong and growing national reputation increases the number of people who travel to Carlsbad for these cultural community events, and the extensive press coverage of them builds the awareness of Carlsbad as a cultural destination. This year, 4000 people are projected to attend the Free Village Music Walk, and half or more of them are projected to attend from outside of Carlsbad. These attendees include both "local tourists" (from San Diego County) and those who travel to Carisbad from outside the county. All of the attendees are projected to spend money at local Carlsbad Village businesses; including restaurants, retailers, and bars. Also, the majority of attendees traveling from outside of San Diego County are projected to stay in hotels. The funds from the BID grant wil! help us increase our promotion of the Village Music Walk as a destination event, which will increase the number of overnight hotel stays. The Festival wili promote the events as a great "staycation" option for South County residents, encouraging attendees to stay in a Carlsbad hotel the weekend ofthe Village Walk. A hotel stay wil! alleviate having to drive home late at night after the event has ended, and will allow a visitor to take full advantage of the Village's many charms. The Carlsbad Music Festival's established reputation has helped build awareness of Carlsbad as a destination in general and, more specifically, as a cultural destination. This awareness has grown through regular press articles found in the Los Angeles Times, The New Yorker critic Alex Ross' (the most prominent national classical music critic) blog and a variety of national music blogs each year, in addition to extensive local press coverage in the Union Tribune, City Beat, The Reader, Carlsbad Magazine, San Diego Magazine and on KPBS. This remarkable level of press coverage, combined with the Festival's advertising campaign, not only has the direct effect of driving tourism for the Village Music Walk weekend itself, but can also help inspire a tourist to make a future visit to Carisbad. The funds from the BID grant will go towards increased advertising and press efforts to increase tourism during the Village Music Walk and beyond.
