Mayes, Administrative Services Directo DATE: December 26, 1995 RE: 1995 Budget Rollforwards Two projects are contained in the 1995 Advertising & Promotion Commission Budget which will not be completed in 1995 and are requested to be rolled forward into 1996 and made a part of the 1996 Budget. Both of the projects were included in the estimated 1995 expenditures when the 1996 budget was prepared . The two items are as follows : Girls Softball Fields (Crystal Springs) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 . . . . . . . . . . $280,000 City Entranceway Enhancements . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29100 • Girls Softball Fields An engineering contract in the amount of $35 ,000 was approved in mid-1995 with Perry Butcher & Associates to provide for the design and construction observation of the softball fields. It is anticipated that bids will be let on the project in the Spring of 1996 . City Entranceway Enhancements This project has been hampered by turnover and inadequate City staff time due to higher priority projects . The City ' s 1996 budget contains funding to hire a Trailways/Sidewalks Coordinator, which we anticipate will assist in bringing this project to fruition.

February 29 - March 2 • 5 . Barnhill Arena 6 . This annual event is staged at a sight selected by the Arkansas Activities Association ' s executive committee . 7 . The tournament draws from the four geographic areas of the state . Based upon the conservative estimate of 100 visitors per participating team per day , the total visitor draw would be 2000 . Three of the four geographic areas participating would more than likely stay overnight . Thus , if a team from East Arkansas wins on Thursday they would probably stay Friday and Saturday if they continue to win . Also , we would expect the number of visitors per team to increase as their teams advance . 8 . We have two of the top three basketball arenas in the state of Arkansas and incomparable hotel and restaurant facilities . This is an opportunity to display our city ' s offerings and to produce a tournament that will make these visitors want to return . 9 . This sporting event is well advertised and promoted by the sports media . 10 , We have an active and competitive media atmosphere here in Northwest Arkansas but the state - wide nature of the event • and the fact that all the major population areas of the state will be present insures complete and thorough coverage of the event all over the state . Cont . 11 . The only marketing we will conduct is the production and sale of the game program . Otherwise , the Arkansas Activity Association will handle marketing of the event . 12 . We are requesting $ 2000 to cover the rental of barnhill arena . The Arkansas Activities Association receives %100 of the gate and % 85 of T - shirt sales . The UofA receives %100 of concessions . The only revenue source for the school is from game ,program sales and % 15 of T - shirt sales . However , we must provide ticket sellers , ticket takers , security , ushers , time keepers , and - book --keepers for •the tournament .- - The school can- not afford a loss of revenue from hosting the event and the facility rental fee is our largest single cost. The school stands to gain an edge in home court advantage and of course the prestige of hosting the event . However , the city of Fayetteville will receive the major financial benefit . An additional incentive to our hosting this tournament is to demonstrate to the Arkansas Activities Association that we are capable of running a first class event . This should enhance our position when we bid for the championship tournament beginning next year . Submitted by , Dick J nson Athletic Director Fayetteville Schools • E C f f RONALD E . BUMPASS Fayetteville Advertising & Promotion Commission Fayetteville Administration Building 113 W. Mountain Street — Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701 I am writing to express my opposition to the enactment of the sign ordinance limiting off-premises billboards or informational signs on the state and federal highways in Washington County. My reasons include the following: 1 . Certainly the right of a property owner to negotiate long-term leases on his property for billboards is a constitutionally-protected property right. The new Highway • 71 is the best example of persons who actually own property along the road who have been damaged, have suffered condemnation of their ownership rights, and will be left with little other than new noise and gas fumes from the road. Ninety percent of the property along the highway is inaccessible by exit ramps, and for that reason, the land will be extremely devalued. I do not think there are going to be too many billboards established along the highway since the marketplace will take care of that. 2. On the positive side, I think businesses and institutions in the cities, such as the Airport Museum, the Tourism Railroad, Historic Downtown Fayetteville, individual downtown businesses and those along old Highway 71 , will need additional advertising in order to inform the traveling public of their existence and location, thereby ' being able to prosper from those persons who will be using the new road to avoid traffic in Fayetteville and Springdale. 3 . With the construction of the new airport facility in Benton County, Fayetteville, Springdale, and Washington County will see a dramatic decrease in economic activity which has been generated by the Fayetteville Airport. This has been estimated to be as much as $40-$50 Million per year. These monies will be transferred to Benton County and eliminated from Washington County because 90 % of the enplanements and deplanements involve a short sales trip to Wal-Mart and 2241 NORTH GREEN ACRES ROAD, FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS 72703 P. O. BOX 4105, FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS 72702 (501) 521-3172 - Fax: (501) 521-5928 4�,1 f� A. return. All of Wal-Mart's business will accrue to Bentonville, with some to Rogers. The sales taxes which previously had been derived by Fayetteville, Springdale and Washington County from these travelers will no longer be collected. 4. I think there will have to be a great deal of effort by advertising associations and individual businesses off the new highway to attempt to develop new business from the highway traffic. As I understand it, many of the buses destined for Branson from Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma will be using the new highway rather than I-40 and then _Highway 7 from Russellville north to Harrison and Branson. Currently, very few of the g `charter services come through Fayetteville, Springdale or Washington County, but prefer, rather, to go through Russellville. This is important because there may be as many as 1 ,500,000 people from East Texas who travel to Branson every year. There will be no way for these people to know about services in Washington County, Fayetteville or Springdale unless the use of billboards is permitted along the new highway. If we don't get the additional business from the new highway, then we can predict that tax receipts will dramatically decrease for all governmental entities, and retail and service businesses will fail to prosper. To summarize, I believe we can expect many of the businesses along Highway 71 - B in Fayetteville and Springdale (especially motels and restaurants) to be adversely impacted when the new road comes in, the new airport in Benton County is completed, and Drake Field is abandoned . Representing myself as a property owner, I object to the establishment of this ordinance. It is not in the best interest of the property owner; it is not in the best interest of the economy of Washington County; it is not in the best interest of government; and it is not in the best interest of individual businesses. In addition, enacting an ordinance prohibiting these billboards will be a disservice to the traveling public along the highways who otherwise could obtain needed, useful information in order to plan their trips and enjoy their travels. Please keep me apprised of any hearing date or further discussion that you might have on this ordinance. Kindest personal re ards, Ronald E. Bumpass REB/Is
