I certainly appreciate hearing the suggestions from the Board. Your comments and perspective are very valuable in evaluating the needs of our downtown district and the arts community. • The City Manager will be performing a comprehensive facilities study prior to any determinations regarding the historic Georgetown Light & Water Works building. He will also provide City Council with final recommendations for this historic property. Again, I would like to express my thanks for the Board's hard work and recommendations regarding an arts center in downtown Georgetown. • Sincerely, George G.

It also appears that the chance of receiving an allocation in FY 12/13 is slim. This means that the Board will not be able to give any grants to arts organizations for the next two years. We are passing along this information so that you may plan your budgets accordingly.
