Enterprises, in substantially the form attached hereto, as the City's representative in Washington, D.C. for the purpose of soliciting for conventions, exhibitions and trade shows; further authorizing the payment of $20,400 for said services for one year, commencing October 1, 1982, payable in 12 equal monthly installments, _using FY 1983 budgeted funds from the Convention Bureau - Promotion Account, sub]ect to availability of funds. PURPOSE: The purpose of this legislation is to provide a full time convention marketing and lobbying firm to represent the City in the Washington, D.C. area where the largest concentration of meeting planners is located. BACKGROUND: In years past, the City's Convention Bureau organized two or three convention contact trips per year in the Washington, D.C. market. These contacts, while yielding limited results in convention bookings failed to provide the necessary sales saturation required to yield optimum results. SUMMARY: At this time, many major Convention Bureaus contract with Washington, D.C. professional firms for their services.
