Additional Information As we are writing this applications we celebrate in our successes. We current broke <br />ground on the first phase of the downtown beautification project at the intersection <br />of Peoh Avenue. A long awaited project that was first conceptualized in the <br />downtown association and then continued to actuality by the City of Cle Elum and <br />their partners. We are excited for the bulb outs, new light fixtures, street fixtures, <br />planters, and other aesthetics. <br />We also have continued to help invest in the long term needs of the downtown <br />core, by helping with the construction work of Railroad Street and the chip seal <br />project that seemed to be a transportation nightmare. Which now allows the use of <br />Railroad for detours during the ongoing First Street construction. <br />We have been able to install Christmas lighting on 33 rooftops within the downtown <br />core of Cle Elum. <br />We have also been successful in working with local property owners to map and <br />create plans for two pocket parks in Cle Elum's downtown, which will make the <br />space more inviting and provide seating for people that are walking and visiting our <br />town. <br />People can be attracted to our community by any of four different features: <br />1. Natural resources 2. cultural resources 3. Human resources 4. Capital <br />resources. Cie Elum Downtown Association has all four,and we are now taking our <br />tourism plan to a level of targeting different user types whether is be day visitors, <br />business travelers, people visiting friends and family, vacationers, and niche <br />groups from bird watchers to motorcycle clubs. They all spend money when they <br />com to town. But they all want different services and amenities to cater to their <br />particular needs and desires. <br />2500 character lirrit <br />Supporting Documents You rrsy upload any supporting docurrents such as graphs, rrages, diagrarrs, rrarketing rreterials, etc. <br />You are allowed to subrrit up to 3 single page (US Letter) documents in JFG, FDF or VFfornat <br />71 Previous Lodging Tax Grant Information <br />Previous Years 1 -las your event received Lodging Tax funds in previous years? <br />Awarded Lodging Tax r No, this event/project has not previously received Lodging Tax Funding. <br />Grants* r Yes, 1 year previous <br />G Yes, 2 years previous <br />r Yes, 3 or more years previous <br />How many participants and spectators attended last year's activity and/or will attend <br />this year? <br />Prior Year* Projected * <br />8,606 <br />How many days did/will your event occur? <br />Prior Year* Projected * <br />365 365 <br />How many paid overnight stays were and/or will be booked as a result of your <br />project/event? <br />
