He said <br /> the subcomittees that review these applications are not really maxing out the grants, but giving <br /> maybe 30-50% of a request in order to cover as many applicants as possible. <br /> Commissioner Dorosin asked if all available funds are being given out. <br /> Steve Brantley said yes. <br /> Commissioner Price said it is important to note the return on investment of the <br /> agriculture grants. <br /> Tyrone Fisher, Cooperative Extension, said that the Breeze Farm is a great example. He <br /> said additional programs are bringing in additional revenue, so the invesment has continued to <br /> pay off. <br /> Travis Myren resumed the presentation: <br /> Community Services <br /> • Chapel Hill Orange County Visitors Bureau—page 143 <br /> •Total expentliture budget-$1,713,212-offset by occupancy tax <br /> • Budgeted oc[upan[yTaX ReVenUe lndrease of 6%-($80,597) <br /> Ompengr Tax Revenue History <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> 87 NtMTH G1lO].rNA <br /> Community Services <br /> • Article 46 Sales Tax—page 62 <br /> •Total projected colleclione-$4,068,240 <br /> -4%Intro Over FY201819P.p1dons <br /> •5C%or$2,034,120 Allocated to Schools and Nstnbuted by Average <br /> Daily Membership(ADM) <br /> -Chapel Hill-CarrCoro City Schools-t1,223,319 for Technology and <br /> Facility Improvements <br /> -0-9.County School:-$810,901 for Technoogy <br /> ORANGE COl1NTT <br /> BB NnKr'H<nnnI.INA <br />
