CULTURAL COMMISSION
MEETING DATE:
October 2, 1 996
ITEM TITLE:
Cultural Arts Master Plan
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
The Cultural Commission at its September 23, 1996 meeting, directed the Cultural
Arts Master Plan committee to develop a questionnaire for community use and report
back to the commission for approval. The Cultural Arts Master Plan committee met
and developed a questionnaire for community use. The committee determined that
the Chamber newsletter could be a possible avenue for delivering the questionnaire
to households in La Quinta. No return postage will be attached to the questionaire
which is proposed to be a tear out page in the Chamber Newsletter. There is no
additional cost to the City of La Quinta for producing the questionaire.
The Cultural Arts Master Plan committee is requesting the Cultural Commission to
review and approve the questionnaire for distribution throughout the City of La
Quinta. The questionnaire is proposed to be mailed back to the City of La Quinta,
attention to the Cultural Commission. The committee is proposing to open the
questionnaires and report the findings back to the commission at its November 25,
1 996 meeting.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the questionnaire submitted by the Cultural Arts Master Plan committee and
direct committee to coordinate with the Chamber of Commerce for distribution.
