20210816-5.b.i-ii : regarding FY 22 Budget Items relating to funding for the Arts and ARPA relief programs for the arts — original pdf
Date: Subject: ARTS COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION 20210816.5.b.i-ii August 19, 2021 Arts Commission Recommendations regarding FY 22 Budget Items relating to funding for the Arts and expenditure of American Rescue Plan Funds (ARPA) for relief programs for the arts community Recommendations The Arts Commission recommends the following: 1. The use of a one-time $500,000 infusion from reserves (transfer in from Development Services Department) to increase the funding for the Austin Arts and Culture Non-profit Relief Grant in order to serve an additional 25 grant applicants. 2. The use of $420,000 of the $6 Million in ARPA funds allocated by Council to the Arts in order to fund an additional 21 eligible applications in the Austin Arts and Culture Non-Profit Relief Grant 3. Support of the Economic Development Department staff recommendation to adopt the proposed FY22 budget as presented in the City Manager's budget proposal, specifically to maintain the hybrid option reflected in Staff’s proposal to allocate a portion of projected HOT revenue for Cultural Contracts, continue the process of transitioning to using actuals versus projections, monitor HOT revenue, and come back in October to present a mid-year budget amendment if FY21 CYE comes in higher than projected. 4. Prioritize ARPA funds allocated to the Arts for emergency relief to the arts community, get emergency funding out the door as fast as possible, and not use ARPA to back fill cultural contract funding. Description of Recommendation to Council This recommendation is in response to a request from Council, made as part of Council budget deliberation and action session on Thursday, August 12, for input on matters regarding funding for the arts through both the 2022 City Budget and the American Rescue Plan Funds.
