Body
OVERVIEW
Today's item designates the City of San Diego through the Commission for Arts and Culture to serve as the California Arts Council (CAC) State-Local Partner (SLP) in San Diego County and authorizes the application for and acceptance of grant funds from the SLP Program under CAC for a two-year time period. The goals for these grant funds are to support the work of local arts agencies in fostering countywide arts and culture ecosystem; provide funds to address priorities identified at the local level in alignment with SLP program requirements; and to promote equity in programming and services for communities, cultures, and creative practices throughout each county with a designated SLP.
The City of San Diego (City) through the City's local arts agency, the Commission for Arts and Culture (Commission) has regularly and successfully applied for and received SLP grants on behalf of the region since the 1980s, including providing any required matching funds from the City of San Diego. As part of the application process this year, CAC is requiring the City to obtain a resolution from the Board of Supervisors of the County of San Diego that officially designates the Commission to serve as the State-Local Partner in San Diego County.
Today's action adopts a resolution to designate the City of San Diego through the Commission for Arts and Culture as the County's official SLP with the CAC.
