Re: Downtown Nashua Music Event
Request
This memo is to notify you and seek approval of a Spring Downtown Music Festival presented by Great
American Downtown.
The funding request is for a $15,000 — sponsorship of the May 2017 downtown music festival
Background
The Downtown Improvement Committee voted unanimously to approve this allocation and is well within
their budget and the special revenue account can accommodate this request.
The Downtown Improvement Committee believes that this event is a good strategy to assist in the
marketing and promotion of the downtown and drive foot traffic to local merchants and individuals in the
downtown
Thank you.
