MAYOR'S REPORT
Mayor Lacy said that after meeting with Events Coordinator Dan White he wanted to update the Council
with regards to installation of a Welcome to East Wenatchee sign. He said funding has been appropriated
in the budget and depending upon whether or not we can get approval from Washington State Department
of Transportation allowing us to occupy a spot visible from the highway, preferably near the 3`d Street SE
and Highway 28, we will begin that process. He added the sign design would reflect the same design as
the sign that was installed at the Valley Mall Parkway and Highway 28.
Mayor Lacy explained that our Events Board doubles as the group that handles events, volunteers,
organizes events for the City under direction of the Coordinator, and are the advisors as to how we spend
the hotel/motel tax dollars. He said he is on that committee and during the last meeting they discussed
updating the Tourism Plan and also holding a retreat for the purpose of coming to some agreements so
they can work on the tourism plan. He said that following the retreat he would ask Mr. White to give a
report of the recommendations and priorities as we proceed with events containing specifics to the
tourism.
' Mayor Lacy said that with the final adoption of the amendment to the Interlocal Agreement for the Town
Toyota Center or Public Facilities District, we have an upcoming election and City Council are not
allowed to campaign by State Law, but they can by resolution take a position with respect to ballot issues
that have to do with the upcoming vote on the Town Toyota Center .01 sales tax issue. He was interested
to hear comments on whether or not the Council was interested in having such a resolution presented, and
