STAFF IS PRESENTING THE PROPOSED MARINA VILLAGE EVENT CENTER PHASED REFRESH PROJECT.  OUR FIRST PHASE WAS WORKING TO GET ART PIECES ON THE WALLS TO CREATE AN ART GALLERY.  WE HAVE WORKED WITH ARTIST SHOWCASE OF THE PALM BEACHES DURING 2021 AND WILL BE PUTTING THIS OUT FOR RFP FOR ADDITIONAL LOCAL ARTISTS FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS GALLERY. THE SECOND PHASE OF THE PROJECT IS TO REPLACE THE CARPET IN THE BALLROOMS BECAUSE THE EXISTING CARPET CAN NO LONGER BE CLEANED AND REFRESHED TO REFLECT THE QUALITY AND STANDARDS INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL CUSTOMERS EXPECT. STAFF WENT THROUGH A PROCESS OF SOLICITING INPUT FROM VARIOUS STAKEHOLDERS ON TYPE OF FLOORING, COLOR, AND DESIGN.  WE REACHED OUT TO SENIOR MANAGEMENT IN THE CITY AND CRA AS WELL AS OUR LOCAL RESIDENTS.
