Downtown Lee's Summit Main Street Association (DLSMS) 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 proposed term of the agreement covers calendar years 2017 through 2020 and is subject to annual appropriation by the City Council. The 2017/2018 funding request is consistent with historical appropriation amounts from the Business and Industry Fund (B&I Fund) in the amount of $60,000.
