R�► <br /> Wayne D. distributed a proposed FY199 budget with a new <br /> component , adding a part-time office support person <br /> approximately 10 hours per week at $10 . 00/hour. (This is a <br /> transition step toward a full-time economic development program. ) <br /> He increased the expense line item to $8 ,000 ( from $5 ,000 ) to <br /> cover reprinting the Guide for Business , office letterhead and <br /> business cards , developing a B&B brochure , sponsorship of <br /> workshops , Web site marketing initiatives , print advertisement, <br /> and general marketing and public relations support activities. <br /> Fred D. reported he met with Linda Gallant from the Chamber <br /> to discuss the maps. He estimates it will cost $5 ,000 to print <br /> 180 ,000 maps similar to the Bennington, Vermont ones. It costs <br /> $475 per Chamber person to advertise on one of these. He also <br /> suggested selling $10 poster maps to people. <br /> Fred D. asked if we have a map of available commercial/industrial <br /> land in Mashpee. Wayne D. stated no, and it is not on the Web. <br /> We have to lead people to our database in the Planning <br /> Department. Fred D. would like to see a map of raw commercial. <br /> land. Wayne D. will ask Planning to produce one. Fred D. feels <br /> every EDC member should have this information, and we should <br /> focus on being more informed to assist Wayne. <br /> Jack H. stated the Web site gets many visitors and is a good <br /> place to advertise. How can we increase the budget and have <br /> the most flexibility? The clerical services can be acquired <br /> on a consultant basis (using a 1099 ) . It was mutually agreed <br /> to drop support staff as a line item and ask for $13 ,000 under <br /> expenses . <br /> Fred D. suggested checking the exact figures to place under <br /> expenses. <br /> Jack H. revised the last paragraph of the proposed budget to <br /> read: "Develop a live , work, and play in Mashpee campaign that <br /> utilizes state-of-the-art Web technology and art work. " <br /> Jack H. further added: "Develop a distributable pocket map <br /> of Mashpee derived from the kiosk map. " <br /> Fred D. feels that .a print campaign works better ( i.e . Yankee <br /> Magazine, Cape Cod Life) . <br /> Wayne D. stated we should make property owners aware of our <br /> campaign efforts . He will develop some way to make contact. <br /> -2- <br />
