- Request for Approval to Submit Grant Application to Florida Division of Cultural Affairs for Sunrise Theatre
- Submitted For:
- Libby Woodruff
SUBJECT:
Approval to submit and accept the Florida Division of Cultural Affairs for General Operating Support Grant in the amount of $150,000.00 for the Sunrise Theatre.
SUMMARY:
The City received a grant award from the FL DCA for the 2012-2013 Program Year to assist the Sunrise Theatre with general operating expenses. Although we applied for $150,000, State budget cuts limited our grant award to $35,000.
We would like to submit another $150,000 grant request to the FL DCA by the June 1, 2014 deadline and hope additional financial assistance for the Sunrise will be awarded for Program Year 2014-2015.
