Overview: As required by state law, the Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership will provide its annual written report and presentation to the Council during a Council meeting.

 

Recommendation(s):

That the Council receive the annual report from the Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership.

 

Key Issues:

                     North Carolina General Statutes allow a city to provide services to its Municipal Service District through a contract with a private agency. The statutes require that the contract be awarded through a bid process that includes a public hearing process and that the selected agency provide an annual report to the city in writing and during the course of a city council meeting. (N.C.G.S. Sec. 160A-536 et. seq.)

                     On April 8, 2016, the Town issued a Request for Proposals to provide services that promote, maintain and enhance the Town’s Municipal Services Districts.

                     On June 13, 2016, the Council awarded the contract to the Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership (CHDP) for FY2016-17.

                     The Contact provides for extensions annually until FY 2021-2022 (5 years) unless the Council, following an annual report, directs otherwise.

 

Fiscal Impact/Resources: The Town of Chapel Hill provided the Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership $190,000 from the Municipal Services District and General Funds in FY 2019. The Council has increased this amount to $210,000 in the FY 2020 budget.  The Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership also receives funding from UNC-Chapel Hill.

 

Council Goals:

Create a Place for Everyone

Develop Good Places,  New Spaces

Support  Community Prosperity

Nurture Our Community

Facilitate Getting Around

Grow Town  and Gown Collaboration
