Tupelo council OKs international travel for CVB deputy director to Australia, New Zealand
Summary
Council approved international travel for the Tupelo Convention & Visitors Bureau deputy director, Jenny Bradford Curley, to participate in a sales mission to Australia and New Zealand; staff said the trip will cost about $7,000 and come from the CVB budget.
The Tupelo City Council approved international travel for the Convention & Visitors Bureau deputy director so she can attend a sales mission to Australia and New Zealand.
At the Nov. 18 meeting, staff member Stephanie said the council was being asked to approve travel for Jenny Bradford Curley to participate in the sales mission. Stephanie said the travel is intended to allow Curley to meet tour operators, travel agents and media in both markets.
Stephanie told the council the total cost is "around $7,000, which will come out of the CVB's budget." The transcript lists travel dates as "June 11 through the 2026," and the council recorded the travel approval by motion with a second and a voice vote.
Council members did not expand the record on funding sources beyond the CVB budget allocation noted by staff, and no public comment was made on this item at the meeting. The approval was routine in tone and passed without further debate.
