SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The DYBID Advisory Board is requesting an additional appropriation of DYBID Funds
(Account 161) for 2013 operations. The adopted 2013 budget of $180,474 was
conservatively set prior to final determinations on the re- formed district and program review
by the new manager. The board is requesting an additional $40,000 of DYBID resources to
fund a number of downtown projects. The additional appropriation would support:
. A matching grant program for DYBID businesses to expand outside landscaping in
the public right of way. This would include planters, hanging baskets and plantings.
The total for this is $15,000 and each business would eligible for a $250 award.
. $25,000 for an updated version of www.downtownyakima.com and a social media
presence to promote downtown activities, business, art and events.
These additional projects are proposed to be funded by increased assessment revenue of
$25,000 and fund balance of $15,000. After the additional appropriation, the DYBID account
is projected to have an ending balance of about $30,000 to start 2014. This estimated
balance does not include any dollars that the City of Yakima is currently trying to collect
from accounts with outstanding balances.
