He added the grant amount would be approximately $868,000.00, and MPO staff has indicated they like our project. Board Member Duke explained the reason for the expedited deadline for the application. 3.1 CRA Updates: Dania Beach 2015 Arts and Seafood Celebration Kathleen Weekes, CRA Coordinator, provided an update of the Arts and Seafood Celebration that will be held March 21-22, 2015. She also gave details of a new component to this year's event that will incorporate an event in the downtown area to be held on Saturday, which is being coordinated by the Chamber of Commerce. Director Earle noted the Saturday event was not originally part of the main event; therefore, he will bring a budget adjustment to the Board at a later date. Board Member Jones commented he wants Memorial Healthcare to be involved with the event; he will provide the contact information to the CRA. He also suggested that we include graffiti artists next year, and perhaps a celebrity to be the grand marshal.
