Board to invite Pikes Peak Bulletin back to discuss grant use and publicity
Summary
The board discussed the Pikes Peak Bulletin's pause in print publication and whether match grant funds should pay for ad space or event-specific ads; the Bulletin will be invited to present next month to clarify use of current funds and future plans.
Board members reported that the Pikes Peak Bulletin has paused regular print publication but is maintaining some online content. The board noted a new publisher, Joaquin Mobley, and debated how to direct future funding — whether to pay for undefined "space" or to pay for event-specific ads. "I'd rather pay for an ad for each match event," one member suggested.
The board agreed to invite the Bulletin to present at the next meeting so members can understand how current funds were spent and how any future payments would be used. The item will be on the agenda next month to allow the publisher to explain plans and for the board to consider whether to change the grant structure.
