Historic Bluffton Foundation's Lou Peoples Music Celebration funded at $3,200
Summary
The committee approved funding for the Lou Peoples Music Celebration at an eligible amount of $3,200 after discussion about eligible advertising and which budget items qualify for ATAX funds.
Robert, speaking for the Historic Bluffton Foundation in the chair's absence, described the planned musical concert, blended choirs from Bluffton, Beaufort and Savannah, and the potential for a televised recording. Committee members questioned whether the applicant's budget allocated the requested $5,000 strictly to eligible ATAX categories such as advertising and promotion.
Staff and committee members reviewed the submitted budget and concluded $3,200 was eligible under ATAX rules; a motion was amended to fund the event at $3,200 and passed by voice vote.
