Summary

Staff reported a count of promotional materials—50 umbrellas, 30 fanny packs, 80 flashlights and few pens—and agreed to place orders with commission input; members asked for a running budget in future reports.

Staff provided an inventory count of commission promotional items and said staff and Angela will gather ordering links and place replenishment orders after the meeting. Members suggested lower-cost filler items (mints, pizza-style dinners) when budgets are tight and asked staff to provide a running balance on future budget reports.

"So we have about 50 red umbrellas, 30 purple fanny packs, 6 black and white pens... 80 red flashlights," staff reported during the inventory review. Commissioners asked that staff include a running balance in the next budget report and to prioritize lower-cost giveaways when appropriate. The commission also agreed CJ would send an example Plinko link for staff to review as a potential activity item.
