CVB Negotiates Chamber Grant Funding Details
The CVB heard requests for a $20,000 Chamber grant package covering events, gift certificates, memberships, ads, and banquet discounts. Dyer claimed a verbal agreement with a former director, which board members disputed, and most items were tabled except $8,500 for the annual chamber banquet. The board later approved $1,000 toward the golf tournament while discussing other applications for Crystal Apple and wine tasting at future meetings. Transient guest tax receipts fell 23 percent in April from 2014.
