EDA BUSINESS <br />4.01: Consider Approval of 2020 Business Appreciation Day Budget and Format <br />Economic Development Manager Sullivan presented the staff report. <br />Chairperson Steffen commented that if the event is setup with tee times, it could take about four <br />hours to get everyone going on the course, which could be a long length of time for hole sponsors. <br />Economic Development Manager Sullivan stated that Rum River Hills staff believed that it would <br />be about a six -hour event with 120 people, as the new social distancing standards have some time <br />savings for the speed of play. He stated that for hole sponsors, they could stagger their times to fit <br />with the times the golfers are on the course too. He commented that tee times could begin at 9 <br />a.m. He noted that some participants could likely enjoy the earlier tee times. <br />Commissioner Riley stated that he likes the idea of sharing electronic contact information and <br />asked if staff could think of a fun way to package and share that information outside of a <br />spreadsheet. <br />Economic Development Manager Sullivan confirmed that staff could look into that. He stated that <br />a USB drive could be loaded with the information along with other helpful information the City <br />would want to share. He stated that they could also review and include information on the previous <br />business of the year recipients. He stated that he was unsure of the level of participation the event <br />will receive and that is why flexibility was requested in the budget. <br />Economic Development Authority/ June 11, 2020 <br />Page 2 of 4 <br />
