On June 30, 2021 the AOT notified staff that communities will be required to submit a notarized DMO Affidavit to participate in any AOT programs, including but not limited to Proposition 302 funding, trade shows, co-operative marketing, and familiarization trips. The DMO Affidavit is required to participate in all FY2021-2022 activities and will be required on an annual basis.
Financial Implications:
The City has received approval from AOT for projected FY2021-2022 Proposition 302 funding for tourism marketing activities in the amount of $264,424.00 with minimum matching funds of $123,000.00.
