of revenue received for deposit in March 2007.
B. Marketing: .
1. A full page ad promoting 39th Street has been placed in

Gingerich. The ad appears on the inside of the front page.
2. Billboards: Four new locations have been picked and
reserved for 39th Street West artwork for a six month period
beginning in February and March. A new design has been produced
for the March billboards promoting 3rd Friday.
C. 2007 Festival Planning: The Event Subcommittee member, Ted Larkin,
provided input on the Taste of 39th Street festival. Discussion followed,
primarily about how to set up for dispensing food and in what portion
and the cost of tents and licensing and how to recuperate those costs.
Further research is needed and a proposed budget targeted by the April meeting.
Arrangements are being made with Big Brother Big Sister which will give this event
volunteers in exchange for something from the CID which is yet to be determined.
D. Security: Two quotes were received from companies which were contacted for providing
39th Street Security. The Scope of work was equivalent to what is currently being given
on the Street now. One quote was from a Security Management company which tailors
a program to the customers needs and came in more that $20,000 more than we are
currently paying. The other quote was for the same cost as we are paying now but with
improved service. More on this issue will be evaluated before anything is done.
E. PIAC: At this time verbal approval for funding has been given and funds should be available
in the coming months the the first phase of the lighting project. The CID wants to get more
