FY2021 Budget Checkpoint# 3 *- Glenn J. Motion to Approve

Jergensen Presented the 3rd checkpoint analysis and reported that May was better than forecasted with $1.6 million collected in bed taxes, about one third of which was collected from vacation rentals. However, collections where still (57.3%) lower than this time last year. It is recommended to take a conservative approach and hold contract levels where projected, distribute stimulus funding which will be released this year and next as needed and approved by the finance committee. Any revenues over $36.3 million will be reserve. Thompson Requests that the TDC continues to provide checkpoint information for the foreseeable future and asked if with improved projections would we look to bring staffing levels back. Jergensen The answer is no to increased staffing due to the uncertainty of the future. Dufrense Asked if there is any information as to further re-openings? Jergensen The Discover team will continue to monitor the platform and plan to begin marketing to the drive market once Florida’s numbers begin to decrease and it looks like more openings can occur. Agency heads are all in agreement with the plan. Motion to approve the Checkpoint information and recommendation is made by Commissioner Kelly Shoaf and seconded by Jim Bronstein . Motion carries 6-0 with Jeffrey Mayer and John Tolbert absent and one vacant seat. C.

Draft FY2021 Performance Measures Post COVID* - Motion to Approve

Jergensen

Presented agency performance measures and stated that performance measures are a requirement of the County and are submitted with the annual budget. So, although it is rather difficult to set measures in this very uncertain time we must do so. Since measures based on room night projections are just too uncertain, projections are reflective of FY2015 and FY2016 levels of operation, we may move to an attendance base measure instead. Motion to approve the performance measures as presented is made by Commissioner Kelly Shoaf and seconded by Jim Bronstein. Motion carries 6-0 with Jeffrey Mayer and John Tolbert absent. One vacant seat. D.

KEY INSIGHTS

Commentary continues to be positive on Instagram - and we have seen a switch in attitude on Facebook. Last month, Facebook commentary was trending negative, but this month, we're seeing more positivity coming through. (This has to do with our audience on both platforms Instagram has far more of a local presence, where we see our top audiences on Facebook coming from New York, New Jersey, etc.) Groups linkedin strategy continues to prove that an employee-led strategy Is best! Ale Trail announcement didn't perform across channels, however, our influencer visit was enjoyed by many and was able to increase Ale Trail awareness Influencer marketing and boost strategy continues to help our follower growth on Instagram - we are almost to 50K!

Subject: Sports Event Recovery in Palm Beach County _____________________________________________________________________________________ The Palm Beach County Sports Commission has been working on sports events and tourism recovery strategies since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic. Youth sports has resumed from a localized perspective. Local youth sports providers and leagues are now permitted to practice and host camps or games. The Palm Beach County Sports Commission has not yet initiated the next level of sports activation, which is hosting tourism events that are customized for Florida athletes, or regional participants (the drive market). However, our Sports Commission has been successful in bringing a few sports events back to life. These events were permitted under Palm Beach County’s Emergency Order (EO) 11, which allows for youth sports activities and by obtaining approval through Palm Beach County’s EPG (Executive Policy Group). Below summarize the sports events that did take place in The Palm Beaches, during the summer. Equestrian Sports June Series, June 6-30 Equestrian Sports Productions (ESP) held the first equestrian competition, which is coined its “June Series” at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center during the month of June. The first week of showjumping competition in June saw approximately 750 horses entered, while the following two weeks counted 690 and 659, respectively. ESP distributed over 2,000 masks and 11,500 pairs of gloves to staff, exhibitors, and participants.

Subject: Lost Business Report _____________________________________________________________________________________

Lost Business Report, FY 20 (March - December) The impact to sports tourism has been severe since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in March. Sports travel has been one the most vulnerable tourism products during this pandemic. A total of 91 sports events, which belong under the patronage of our Sports Commission, were canceled, or relocated because of Covid-19. These 91 events were scheduled to take place from March through the end of December. The lost business amounts to 103,859 room nights and $73 million of visitor spending. Regrettably, this number is expected to grow. Our Sports Commission is working feverishly on developing plans to bring sports events back to life in the fall. We are hopeful that greater sports activation will begin no later than November.

Sports-Development Sports Development Executive Summary In FY 20, the Palm Beach County Sports Commission (PBCSC) is deploying an aggressive sales and sports development effort to grow the number of sports tourisms generating events taking place in The Palm Beaches. The PBCSC continues to cultivate relationships with event owners, as well as identify, solicit, secure and retain sports events to grow room night actualization. Below is a recap of sports development efforts that have taken place during the month of August in FY 20.

Event Bids & Development A primary mechanism for event solicitation is through the Event Bid and Development process. To recognize potential bid opportunities, the PBCSC will be at the forefront of the industry and engage with event owners. Bid submission is a highly effective tool to recruit sporting events. Attached is a comprehensive list of the bids that have been submitted in FY 20, and below is a breakdown of the development efforts over the past month: 

Site visits allow for an event owner to explore potential sports venues while experiencing Palm Beach County’s tourism assets, such as hotels, restaurants, and attractions. Attached is a comprehensive list of the site visits that have been conducted in FY 20, and below is a breakdown of site visits conducted over the past month: 

Sports Commission representatives meeting with potential business clients:

COVID-19 The Covid-19 outbreak has greatly impacted the sports/entertainment and tourism industry, as well as all business sectors. Over 90 sports events that were projected to generate more than 100,000 room nights have been postponed, cancelled, or relocated from March through August. Over the past few months, we have been in constant communication with our event partners with events coming up August through December to check-in and see how they are doing through all of this, as well as provide local information as they are looking to make decisions on possible postponement, etc. Lastly, the Sports Development department has been full steam ahead as it looks to garner and generate new event opportunities for 2021 and beyond. For our 2020 events, much of the work of winning that business was completed 2 to 4 years ago, so it is imperative we continue to be aggressive on the new event front to help Palm Beach County recover from this epidemic.

SPOTLIGHT ON LOCALS

INLET WATERWAYS

Ko-Mar Productions out of West Palm Beach produced a special about a PGA sponsored charitable effort which helps veterans. The program, called PGA HOPE: Helping Our Patriots Everywhere, was hosted by sports caster James Brown and aired on CBS Sports. The unique program uses the sport of golf to enhance the physical, mental, social, and emotional well-being of United States veterans with disabilities from all branches of the military. It is offered at no cost to the vets.

VIRTUAL SUMMER SERIES

2195 Southern Boulevard, Suite 520 West Palm Beach, FL 33406

Professional golfers Jack Nicklaus and Jordan Spieth appeared in the televised special, which highlights the healing power of golf. The show also included an introduction from six-time major champion and US Marine Corps Veteran Lee Trevino. Producer and Ko-Mar Productions Vice President and COO Jim Gallagher said of the project, “We’ve filmed hundreds of hours of golf content over the years, but it was truly an honor to be a part of this project. To witness, capture, and share the healing and transformative effects the game of golf has had on the lives of these men and women was a once in a lifetime experience that I will never forget.”

On the Course with PGA HOPE

According to their website, PGA HOPE impacted 2,500 veterans nationwide in 2019, with lessons taught by more than 350 PGA professional golfers. Once the COVID-19 pandemic hit, golf instruction and motivational support has shifted to video “hangouts” and virtual instruction.

FOCUS ON FILM MASK UP, SAVE LIVES

MUSIC THAT TELLS A STORY

Phrases like “wear a mask, save lives” and “remember wearing a mask is truly a lifesaving act of kindness” continue to be a theme throughout a series of televised Public Service Announcements (PSAs) sponsored by Palm Beach County. As produced by local production company Ko-Mar, the PSA campaign is designed to encourage residents and guests to wear masks in public spaces to slow the spread of COVID-19. The multi-lingual campaign (English, Spanish, Creole) is airing on most local stations in the area, including network affiliates WPBF 25 (ABC), WPTV (NBC), WPEC (CBS12), WXEL (South Florida PBS), and Channel 20, the county’s community access channel. For more information, visit discover.pbcgov.org.

Tori Spade, a hip-hop artist out of West Palm Beach, is back in action after taking a few years off with her passion for music on full blast. With a lyrical style compared to Cardi B and Trina, Spade has made a name for Filming at PBIA herself in South Florida opening for big time artists over the years. Her latest venture back into the industry is accompanied by a new music video produced by Kristopher Davis of Eye Spy Filmz. Filmed in Mounts Botanical Garden and the Palm Beach International Airport, the video tells a story of pain mixed with strength. “The garden represents the beauty that has surrounded her, and the airport signifies her leaving all of her past emotions and circumstances behind and moving towards her destiny,” said Davis. “I live, breathe, and dream music,” Spade shared. The video can be seen on Tori’s House of Spade YouTube Channel and on Mounts Botanical Garden EyeSpyFilmz.com.

WPB TOPS PGA RATINGS ON ESPN Tens of thousands of viewers from the West Palm Beach market tuned in for the final round of the PGA Championship on ESPN last month. In fact, the West Palm Beach area had more viewers than any other television market in the country. This might come as no surprise considering the event featured some of the world’s best golfers, including Jupiter residents Matthew Wolff, Daniel Berger, and Brooks Koepka, as well as Dustin Johnson of Palm Beach Gardens. According to The Palm Beach Post, the final round of this year’s PGA Final was the most viewed on cable since 2010. ESPN registered nearly two million viewers, up 60% over last year’s final round telecast. The West Palm Beach market’s appetite for sports is encouraging news. George Linley, Executive Director of the Palm Beach County Sports Commission, believes sports - particularly sports tourism - is “typically recession proof.” To learn about other upcoming sporting events, visit palmbeachsports.com/events.

COASTAL STORMS CAUGHT ON CAMERA While Florida residents are accustomed to quick afternoon storms during the summer season, the beauty of lightning strikes over the ocean and power of thunder clapping in the distance is a production draw for those less familiar with the magic of coastal storms. In an upcoming documentary titled America, an UK-based production company will showcase incredible landscapes, wildlife and weather phenomena that characterize the United States. A total of eleven permits were issued in Palm Beach County alone, giving the field crew access to public beaches as far north as Jupiter and as far south as Boca Raton. The documentary is planned for a 2021 release. Keep up with production updates at pbfilm.com.

Currently, You Create is preparing to move into a larger studio in Boca Raton to accommodate bigger projects and more educational opportunities. See more at Facebook.com/YouCreateAcademy.

FILM FLORIDA REACHES NEW AUDIENCE THROUGH VIRTUAL PANELS Film Florida has risen to the challenge of leading Florida's film, television, and digital media production industry through the obstacles of a pandemic by adjusting its approach to education and outreach through a series of virtual panels. Their first panel took place after the release of Film Florida’s Recommendations for Clean & Healthy Production Sets, which included 20 of Florida’s top industry experts. With 700+ audience members, it became clear that virtual panels are an effective way to reach busy production industry professionals who find value in remote workshop opportunities. Panels and virtual conferences since then have focused on the future of film festivals, location management and permitting, and approaches to remote education at the university level. Future panels will continue with topics like hair and makeup guidelines on set, successful productions wrapped during the pandemic and more. Connect with the Florida film community by visiting filmflorida.org.

FOCUS ON FILM LOCATION SPOTLIGHT INLET WATERWAYS

EDUCATION CORNER A VIRTUAL SUMMER SERIES

With four inlets adjacent to large public parks, coastal angles can be captured all throughout Palm Beach County.

For 20 years, Riley Roam and Kenny Mikey at Page Turner Adventures & Storyology Studios brought their highly successful interactive children’s theater to libraries and theaters across the nation. The Riley & Kenny Emmy award-winning Page Turner Adventures (PTA) was well-known for its lively, signature Slapstick Steampunk style that turned audiences into little heroes of sidesplitting, adventure stories. But when Covid-19 canceled many in-person events, PTA had switch gears...fast!

Jupiter Inlet connects a variety of waterways to several parks. DuBois Park provides a lagoon as a great option for filmmakers who want to avoid Looking North from the Lagoon wind noise or get a cheat for a river crossing. The trees in Jupiter Beach Park block the view of condos to the south making a practically seamless green backdrop. Other nearby parks include Jupiter Island Park and Sawfish Bay. Lake Worth Inlet, aka Palm Beach Inlet, provides access to the ocean from Lake Worth Lagoon and the Port of Palm Beach. Peanut Island sits in the middle of the waterway and is a popular Ship passing Peanut Island spot for fun in the sun on the sandbar. The beaches around the island offer white sand and great views of ships as they enter and exit the Port of Palm Beach. Boynton Beach Inlet sits just north of Ocean Inlet Park and together they provide a variety of coastal angles with a small marina, coconut palms and coral rock on the intracoastal side, Boynton Beach Inlet along with huge black rocks on the ocean side. Fishing is popular with a platform of the south side of the waterway and along the seawall. The park has plenty of shade and parking for crews. Boca Raton Inlet is the southernmost inlet in the County, with South Inlet Park on the south side of the waterway. The park has a Moorish architectural remnant on site that was Eshelman Pavilion saved from the Cabana Sun Club before it was demolished, and sits on the property as a shade structure and outdoor event venue. For information about filming at any of these locations, visit pbfilm.com.

That’s when Riley and Kenny decided to create a Virtual Summer Library Program which included virtual story theater performances, crafts, recipes, author interviews, guest appearances from national and international Circus Set performers, and much more. “It was so exciting to bring our passion for storytelling, comedy, and theater to the online space while continuing to support libraries across the country,” said Riley Roam. In record time, PTA had produced over 70 original videos that have already sold to almost five hundred libraries nationwide. Production partner Old School Square in Delray Beach served as their home base with a top-notch, studio-quality theater. "PTA’s virtual summer definitely helped libraries engage with all of our kids and parents!" added Kimberly Husing, librarian at the Mandel Public Library in Riley on Green Screen West Palm Beach. PTA is now turning their attention to virtual field trip theater shows, working with the Kravis Center in West Palm Beach to provide ten virtual shows to PBC Schools. Because of the success of their virtual series, PTA will be hiring more production staff as they move forward with even more new projects! To learn more, visit pageturneradventures.com.

Production Activity Report For July 2020 Variance Explanations Percentage change variances of ± 10% in performance statistics are typically explained in this section. However, due to the widespread impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the entertainment production industry, this page will serve as an overall update on data collection and reporting measures across multiple categories. During the months of June and July 2020, the number of COVID-19 cases in Florida increased over eight-fold, from 56,830 on June 1 to 470,386 on July 31. While the production industry has set an example for safety, health and accountability measures while getting back to business with guidelines from DGA, SAG-AFTRA, IATSE, Teamsters, Film Florida and many others, the surge in Florida cases has been widely covered on national media outlets, making it difficult to attract out-of-state production and slowing the intake of new leads. Palm Beach County’s local production community, however, has reported progress on getting back up and running, as reflected in the closing gap in total production days (538 in July 2020 vs. 611 in July 2019). Background Context (March – June 2020): Following a rapid increase in confirmed COVID-19 cases and public awareness in the United States in mid-March, a massive social distancing effort effectively shut down production sets across the country. Many of the locations that fall under the FTC’s One-Stop Permitting process closed to public access amidst Governor DeSantis’ Stay At Home order, which went into effect March 26, 2020. As businesses were urged to begin working remotely from home whenever possible, studio projects and on-location productions alike were either postponed or cancelled in the interest of prioritizing public health. The Stay At Home order was not lifted in Palm Beach County until May 11, at which point Phase One of Governor DeSantis’ reopening plan was enacted. While the FTC’s services have continued uninterrupted and permit requests have been accepted and reviewed on a case-by-case basis, State of Florida Executive Orders made on-location production all but impossible during half of March, the entire month of April, and half of May 2020. This impact will be reflected in year-to-date percentages through the end of the 2020 calendar year. Prior to the outbreak, production in Palm Beach County was experiencing an increase year-over-year. The total number of permits issued from January 1-March 15, 2020 (just before the shutdown) was 85, compared to 71 for January 1-March 15, 2019, a 19% increase. The year-to-date production data through July 2020 correlates with nationwide trends in production business impacts, as well as the experiences reported amongst Film Commissions throughout the State of Florida who have cited multiple lead cancellations in July 2020 due to the surge1. FilmLA released a 1

report on the 2nd quarter of the year (April 2020-June 2020) which indicated they had received 34% of the usual permit applications (a decrease of 66%)2. A study released by The Brookings Institution, a nonprofit public policy organization, measured the impacts of COVID-19 on the creative economy and estimated a 30% loss in creative industry occupations nationwide3. In order to report data as accurately as possible and reflect the full-scale effect on our Palm Beach County production community, direct contact was made with each entity included in the monthly Production Companies & Support Services section (via an industry-wide survey) for estimated percentage adjustments to their average monthly production days, employees, freelancers, hotel room nights and production revenue. As a result of these data collection efforts, percentage change variances of ± 10% are as follows: • • • • • • • •

Production Revenue: 37% decrease Hotel Room Nights: 46% decrease Production Days*: 24% decrease Total Productions: 35% decrease Total Leads: 18% decrease Lead Responses: 18% decrease Lead Conversions: 34% decrease Website Unique Visitors**: 21% decrease

*Production Days includes reports of pre-production and post-production work that took place remotely within our local production community.

The FTC continues production community outreach to provide support and collect information regarding the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry as a whole. The FTC will continue to monitor reports coming from other film commissions across the state and country to compare business impacts and trends in data accrual.

PAST BEACH CONSTRUCTION IN JUPITER

Sea Turtles and Storms: Nesting on Palm Beach County beaches has begun to subside, however the season is not over yet. After Tropical Storm Isaias, staff did notice a loss of approximately 20% of incubating nests, but no storm season is a total loss for Florida’s sea turtles. Sea turtles deposit several nests throughout the season, ensuring a high probability that at least a few will succeed, even in the case of direct hits from multiple storms. After a storm, you may encounter weak hatchlings or eggs on the beach. If so, please do not collect the eggs, but instead contact the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission at 888-404-3922 for further instruction.

Reef Deployments: 1,000 tons of donated material from the Andrew ‘Red’ Harris Foundation was placed in four locations offshore of Juno Beach in 80 ft. of water. The remaining 500 tons of limestone rock will be placed on top of the existing Jupiter Stepping Stones Reef just north of the Jupiter Inlet in 30 ft. of water. This nearshore reef is known for its aggregation of bait fish, and the fresh addition will provide additional habitat for these and other fish species. REEF DEPLOYMENT

LRW Hydrological Refinement: Loxahatchee River Watershed (LRW) hydrological field explorations continued this month. Soil borings are being analyzed to determine the nature and sequence of the subsurface soils, permeability of the underground conditions, and the seepage potential for various water level conditions. The project is part of a watershedbased effort to protect and restore the Loxahatchee River and enhance natural areas within the LRW.

Insecticide Resistance Testing: ERM staff is conducting mosquito sampling within the county to identify pesticide-resistant populations of mosquitoes. Results from sampling help ensure effective mosquito control within the county. Staff place cups filled with water and “egg papers” in suitable locations for female mosquitoes to lay eggs. The papers are collected, processed, and shipped to University of Florida’s Florida Medical Entomology Lab in Vero Beach for testing. Eight locations have been sampled within the County to date. The photo shows collection cups and a close up of mosquito eggs with a pin head for scale.

Subject: Boca Raton Bowl _____________________________________________________________________________________

Over the past six (6) years, Palm Beach County is one of only 35 communities throughout the United States that hosts a NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS)-sanctioned bowl game. The Boca Raton Bowl, which takes place at FAU Stadium on the campus of Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, is a pre-Christmas bowl game in December. The Boca Raton Bowl is one of 15 bowl games owned and operated by ESPN Events, a division of ESPN, the worldwide leader in sports. The Boca Raton Bowl has tie-ins with teams from Conference USA, the American Athletic Conference (AAC), and the Mid-American Conference (MAC). Palm Beach County’s bowl game built an impressive resume in a short period of time. The game has featured seven (7) conference champions in its six (6) years of existence.

Tourism Impacts and Marketing Impacts: Tourism is the foundation of a bowl game. The Orange Bowl, which is the largest annual sports event taking place in South Florida, was created in 1935 with the mission of generating tourism for South Florida through an annual football game and supporting events. The Boca Raton Bowl shares a similar purpose. Thousands of alumni, students, and football enthusiasts travel to Palm Beach County during the month of December to experience the thrills of post-season college football. In addition to the excitement of college football, the Boca Raton Bowl provides a surge of economic and media benefits. Economic Impact: The Palm Beach County Sports Commission (PBCSC) conducts an analysis to determine an economic impact projection following this game. The Destinations International (DI) Sports Economic Impact Calculator provides a platform tailored for collegiate sporting events. Destinations International is the global trade association for official destination marketing organizations (DMOs). This analysis demonstrates that the Boca Raton Bowl creates an estimated economic impact exceeding $3.5 million (on average). Room Nights: The PBCSC tracks room night data derived from the Boca Raton Bowl each year. However, the room night reports come directly from hotels that maintain the room blocks for the participating teams, bands, school representatives, officials, and some alumni. The room night reports do not include overnight stays from the leisure traveler, which include fans, alumni, and students. On average, this bowl game generates 2,284 room nights from the official block. The actual room night creation is higher.

Media: The first five (5) editions of the Boca Raton Bowl have taken place on the Tuesday evening immediately prior to Christmas with a start time of 7:00pm. Last year, the game featured its kickoff the Saturday immediately prior to Christmas with a start time of 3:30pm. The first five (5) games were aired on ESPN with last year’s game taking place on network TV at ABC. The game generates tremendous exposure for The Palm Beaches during the three-hour live broadcast on ABC or ESPN and its family of networks. On average, over 1.8 million unique households watched the Boca Raton Bowl, making it the top ranked sports programming for five (5) years in a row. Last year’s broadcast on ABC generated the largest television audience at 2.5 million households. Countywide Impacts: In addition to the game, the Boca Raton Bowl engaged communities across The Palm Beaches. The Palm Beach County Sports Commission aided the coordination of the game’s ancillary events. Welcome parties and pep rallies have been hosted in Jupiter, West Palm Beach, Delray Beach, and Boca Raton. The City of Lake Worth, the City of Riviera Beach, and Juno Beach hosted beach parties for the athletes, coaches, and their families. The Palm Beach County Convention Center was home to the Bowl Luncheon for five (5) out of its six (6) years. The participating teams held their practices at various high school football stadiums throughout the county. Athletes and coaches participated in hospital visits throughout the county. The excitement and impact were felt countywide. The participating teams stayed at the Boca Raton Resort & Club, PGA National Resort & Spa, and Wyndham Grand Jupiter at Harbourside Place.

Event Description: The Palm Beach County Sports Commission is partnering with USA Competitions, to host the 2021 Tim Rand Invite, which is scheduled to take place on March 5-7, 2021 at the Palm Beach County Convention Center. The Tim Rand Invite, which is the top international competition in South Florida, is expected to attract 1,500 gymnastics, 500 coaches and 2,250 ancillary spectators from 18 U.S. states and three (3) foreign countries. This invitational will feature gymnasts from the ages of 4 to 18 competing in skill levels 1 to 10, as well as Xcel and Elite. This invitational is typically awarded an “Elite Qualifier” sanctioning which is a highly coveted distinction. This typically leads to larger attendance from gymnasts because competing in Elite Qualifiers is a major way for gymnasts to improve upon their ranking regarding the elite programs, such as the National Team. This invitational allows gymnasts one last “tune-up” before the state championships begin. The gymnasts compete in floor, beam, bars and vault. This meet was formed to honor Hall of Fame gymnastics coach Tim Rand, who died of a heart attack in 2007 at the age of 51 in Port St. Lucie. The invitational raises money for the Tim Rand Legacy Fund benefitting coaches and athlete education in the southeast region of the United States. Venue Requirements: 50,000 square feet of floor spaces is needed to accommodate the necessary gymnastics apparatus, tiered spectator seating, vendor/exhibitor space, staging for awards, hospitality area, and registration area. The layout includes two sets of gymnastics apparatus for each event (floor exercise, uneven bars, balance beam and vault) and approximately 750 tiered seats. Projected Event Schedule: Thursday, March 4: 8am to 5pm – Move In Friday, March 5: 8:30am to 9pm – Opening day for the meet. Gymnasts will compete in technical sequence per event. Saturday, March 6: 8:30am to 9pm – 2nd day of the meet, which includes 4 sessions of competition per event. Sunday, March 7: 8:30am to 5:30pm – 3rd day of the event, which includes 4 sessions per event.
