01:15 PM -- Dome Renovation Project Update
Ms. Kori Donaldson, Legislative Council Staff, updated the committee regarding the Capital Development Committee (CDC) discussion about fund-raising for the dome renovation project. Committee members received a Project Timetable for the Share in the Care Campaign, prepared by Colorado Preservation, Inc. (CPI) (Attachment A). Ms. Donaldson explained that the CDC did not spend time during the meeting discussing the timetable. Committee members also received a sample sponsorship agreement between CPI and the Colorado Education Association, prepared by CPI (Attachment B). Ms. Donaldson said that the CDC did not make a decision regarding the sponsorship agreement, rather the committee raised questions about the sponsorship policy. She said that the CDC will continue this discussion at a meeting in December. She also said that the sample sponsorship policy lists CEA as a presenting partner, but that during the CDC meeting, it was clarified that CEA will not be a presenting partner, but will be at a lower contribution level. Ms. Donaldson concluded her remarks by telling the committee that the CDC had confirmed the designation of Ms. Lisa Esgar from the Governor's Office of State Planning and Budgeting, and Ms. Georgianna Contiguglia as the Capitol Building Advisory Comittee designee to a task force to oversee fundraising for the State Capitol dome project. Furthermore, the CDC appointed Representative Jim Riesberg as their designee to the fundraising task force until its December 1, 2010, meeting. Senator Bacon further elaborated on some of the concerns the CDC raised during its meeting regarding the sponsorship policy and how it will apply to potential sponsors. He said it is important to think through the criteria listed in the sponsorship policy in order to accept donations.
