1 Community Development Department SUBJECT: Consideration of a Resolution authorizing renewal of annual membership in Chicago's North Shore Convention & Visitors Bureau, September 1, 2016 August 31, 2017 AGENDA ITEM: 9.b.i MEETING DATE: August 2, 2016 VILLAGE BOARD REPORT TO: Village President and Board of Trustees FROM: Jeff Brady, Director of Planning, (847) THROUGH: Todd Hileman, Village Manager PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff requests consideration of a Resolution authorizing renewal of the Village s membership in Chicago s North Shore Convention and Visitors Bureau (CNSCVB) for the period September 1, August 31, The renewal cost of $62,900 has remained the same since it was established in BACKGROUND: The Chicago s North Shore Convention and Visitors Bureau, and is a State of Illinois-certified tourism bureau which is charged with promoting its member communities - Evanston, Glenview, Northbrook, Prospect Heights, Skokie, Wheeling, and Winnetka and receives State of Illinois matching grant funds in order to do so. The Bureau directs programming toward group tour planners and corporate meeting planners, as well as individual visitors, with a focus on putting heads in beds in North Shore hotels and encouraging spending at area restaurants, retailers, and attractions. The Village s membership in CNSCVB was initiated in 2008 in response to requests from Glenview hotels to establish a relationship with a Bureau so that they could receive marketing services. Glenview hotels, retail businesses, restaurants, events, and Park District facilities are regularly featured in promotions and tours created and paid for by the CNSCVB. Events are promoted to 10,500 North Shore e- newsletter subscribers, as well as purchased lists of up to 30,000 addresses from multiple zip codes which best match the targeted demographics for North Shore visitors. The CNSCVB additionally has strong social media presence with weekly outreach to 119,000 people via Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Pinterest. This is the scope of exposure that is best achieved by working regionally with neighboring communities and combining municipal contributions with State of Illinois matching grants to fund an aggressive sales and marketing program. Over 50 Glenview businesses and 1
2 facilities have chosen to become members with each paying their own dues. Membership dues for smaller businesses are in the $200-$300/year range, and dues for the hotels are calculated based upon the number of rooms at $25/room/year. MEMBERSHIP: Membership dues for all CNSCVB member municipalities are calculated at the point of entry into the Bureau, based upon the number of hotel rooms in a community. Glenview s membership dues were set at $62,900 in FY2008. Municipal membership in CNSCVB is a prerequisite in order for the hotels, restaurants, retailers, or attractions within those municipalities to become members and thereby receive additional services. A 5% Hotel and Motel Tax on Glenview operators has been in effect since 1985, and in 2008 the Village raised the tax by 1% (to 6%) to capture additional dollars in order to offset the CNSCVB membership dues and generate additional revenue. In 2008, this 1% increase generated over $160,000. While the overall Hotel/Motel tax collections have fallen since the 2008 peak (2008 was over $1M, 2014, 2015 and 2016 have all trended in the $800,000 range), the 1% increase currently generates an amount consistent with the original intent, which covers the annual CNSCVB membership dues and generates additional revenue BUDGET: Fund Account # FY 2016 Amount FY 2017 Amount Corporate Fund $62,900 $62,900 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Board adopt the attached resolution authorizing continued membership in the CNSCVB for another annual period which ends August 31, ATTACHMENTS: 1.
