Presentation and Review of Downtown Lee's Summit Main Street Public Service Agreement Scope of Services
Key Issues:
Downtown Lee's Summit Main Street will be presenting the proposed scope of services of the proposed 2017 - 2020 Public Service Agreement (PSA) for review and discussion with the Community and Economic Development Committee (CEDC).
The Downtown Lee's Summit Main Street Association (DLSMS) serves as a non-profit organization with the mission of supporting business and economic development in the downtown Lee's Summit community. The City of Lee's Summit realizes that promotion and advertising of the City's historic downtown to the larger Kansas City metropolitan area and the midwest region is important for the community image and additional sales tax derived from visitors.
The City of Lee's Summit and DLSMS enter into a Public Service Agreement for the purpose of furthering the City's efforts to promote business development within the community, which in turn supports a healthy tax base for city services. Annually the City appropriates funding from the Business and Industry Fund, therefore enters into a Public Service Agreement to formalize the services provided by DLSMS and funding provided to accomplish the stated goals.
Proposed Committee Motion:
I recommend approval of the scope of services as outlined in the draft Downtown Lee's Summit Main Street Public Service Agreement and recommend the agreement be forwarded to the Finance and Budget Committee to be considered for inclusion in the City's FY18 budget.
