The Atascadero Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID) was established to promote
Atascadero as an overnight destination. The mission of the Atascadero TBID is to
encourage visitors to discover what makes Atascadero a simply genuine travel destination
resulting in increased revenue for the local community.
We appreciate the efforts of community partners to design events that attract visitors to
Atascadero and would like to offer our support of those events that align themselves with
the Visit Atascadero mission. A portion of the TBID annual budget and regular marketing
efforts are set aside each year to help maximize the effect of these efforts. If you would like
to be considered for support, please complete the following application. The application
must be received at least 6 months in advance of the funding deadline to request
support from the Atascadero TBID. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide assistance
for all events, but please know each request will be considered thoroughly.
Our Mission: Encourage overnight travel to experience Atascadero’s beautiful and
authentic outdoor recreation, culinary adventures, and welcoming hospitality.
In order to qualify for event sponsorship, your organization must meet the following
requirements or provide a three-year plan detailing how you will ultimately meet these
requirements:
1. Support the Visit Atascadero mission
2. Attract visitors from outside San Luis Obispo County
3. Encourage overnight stays of one night or more
4. Obtain the necessary ABC permits, law enforcement approval, city permits, safety
guidelines, and any additional documents needed for the event
5. Provide a detailed event budget and marketing plan
6. Provide post-event metrics which show positive effect on Atascadero tourism
In addition to these requirements, ATBID Board will consider the following factors:
1. Does event support Visit Atascadero objectives?
2. Will event be held during off-season (January – March)?
3. Is event new or existing? If existing, how was previously awarded money spent?
4. What is the three-year growth plan for the event?
5. Is there statistical data on the demographic status of your attendees or targeted
attendees?
6. Can the organization prove complete fiduciary responsibility of all event expenses?
7. Do your event organizers and attendees garner influence and have the ability to
promote Atascadero tourism?
Please submit application and all additional documents by email to Terrie Banish at
tbanish@atascadero.org in a PDF format. You will receive a confirmation that we have
received the application. Typically, we ask that event planners attend a Board Meeting to
present their event to the Board which provides an opportunity to ask questions. Atascadero
TBID Board Meetings are regularly scheduled for the third Wednesday of the month at 2:30
p.m. at City Hall. The vote regarding funding often takes place at the meeting following the
event presentation.

• Event coordinators will be held accountable for promoting and advertising the event,
including, but not limited to, listing the event on the Visit SLO CAL website
(www.slocal.com) within 30 days of Board approval for funding.
• Event coordinators will also be held responsible for ensuring the Visit Atascadero
logo and branding is used appropriately on any event materials. This includes
ensuring the Visit Atascadero logo is visible on event website and marketing
collateral within 30 days of Board approval for funding.

BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT
Staff Report
Central Coast Cider Festival Event
Sponsorship Request
RECOMMENDATION:
ATBID Board review and provide staff direction on the 2023 Central Coast Cider
Festival Event Sponsorship request.
DISCUSSION:
Prior to the COVID pandemic, the Central Coast Cider Festival was an ATBID- and City-
sponsored event for each annual occurrence, from August 2016 through August 2019.
The festival was awarded $35,000 from the ATBID Board in December 15, 2015 for a
three-year sponsorship, and then another $15,000 sponsorship for 2019. The awarded
amount was to be used to generate awareness for the cider category and draw out-of-
town visitors to Atascadero, resulting in increased overnight stays.
Since the pandemic, the Central Coast Cider Festival has been dormant and the Central
Coast Cider Association (CCCA) has been regrouping in an effort to bring back this
event. Since 2019, the special event sponsorship criteria for Tier 1 has changed along
with the dollar amounts. The Fiscal Impact below reflects the adjusted Tier 1 level of
$10,000. At this ATBID Board meeting, the CCCA will present a new festival to take
place in August/September 2023 and discuss bringing back a new version of the event.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Up to $10,000.

something special when festival
attendees present the passport at their
tasting room or other beverage purveyor;
a pairing, a library pour, or special flight.
As the Festival is anchored in Atascadero,
that is the best place for them to lay their

ATBID Board Amended 2023 Meeting Schedule
RECOMMENDATION:
ATBID Board approve the proposed amended ATBID Board meeting schedule for the
remainder of meetings in calendar year 2023.
DISCUSSION:
In January 2023, the ATBID Board approved a meeting schedule for calendar year 2023
that slated ATBID Board meetings for the third Wednesday of each month, with the
exception of July and December, which are months with no regular ATBID Board meeting.
After discussions between City leadership and staff about streamlining processes and
maximizing efficiency, the City is interested in shifting ATBID Board meeting dates from
the third Wednesday of each month to the fourth Wednesday of each month, with the only
notable exception of November, when the ATBID Board meeting will still be held on the
third Wednesday of the month to accommodate Board Members and City staff seeking
time off for the Thanksgiving holiday.
Shifting ATBID Board meetings to the fourth Wednesday of each month allows
Administrative Services, the City Manager’s office, and City Clerk’s office enough time to
compile the necessary data, reports, and agenda items each month without sacrificing
quality nor consistency.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

Staff Report
ATBID Event Sponsorship Application Blackout Dates
RECOMMENDATION:
ATBID Board review, discuss, and provide staff direction to add blackout dates to the
Event Sponsorship Application.
DISCUSSION:
The ATBID event sponsorship program and respective tiers were established in 2016 to
guide event sponsorship support discussions. The ATBID Board uses the tiers to
evaluate event compatibility with current Visit Atascadero goals and strategies. This
event sponsorship program has grown since its inception to support numerous events
hosted in the City of Atascadero. The event sponsorship tier system has been revised
due to the increased interest in the event sponsorship program to ensure Visit
Atascadero and ATBID continues to strategically host and support mutually beneficial
events.
As Atascadero’s tourism and hospitality industry has grown, so has the number of event
requests received by ATBID. Because of the sheer volume of requests, Atascadero
hoteliers have some months throughout the year when there is no vacancy and no
ability to accommodate a large influx of visitors for a new event. To ensure the best use
of ATBID sponsorship funds, this item is on the agenda as a further discussion of
possible ATBID sponsorship blackout dates, including determining the range of those
dates, and when those blackout dates should start to apply to events going forward.
Upon approval by the ATBID Board, these stipulations will be added to the Event
Sponsorship Application.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.

The Atascadero Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID) was established to promote
Atascadero as an overnight destination. The mission of the Atascadero TBID is to
encourage visitors to discover what makes Atascadero a simply genuine travel destination
resulting in increased revenue for the local community.
We appreciate the efforts of community partners to design events that attract visitors to
Atascadero and would like to offer our support of those events that align themselves with
the Visit Atascadero mission. A portion of the TBID annual budget and regular marketing
efforts are set aside each year to help maximize the effect of these efforts. If you would like
to be considered for support, please complete the following application. The application
must be received at least 6 months in advance of the funding deadline to request
support from the Atascadero TBID. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide assistance
for all events, but please know each request will be considered thoroughly.
Our Mission: Encourage overnight travel to experience Atascadero’s beautiful and
authentic outdoor recreation, culinary adventures, and welcoming hospitality.
In order to qualify for event sponsorship, your organization must meet the following
requirements or provide a three-year plan detailing how you will ultimately meet these
requirements:
1. Support the Visit Atascadero mission
2. Attract visitors from outside San Luis Obispo County
3. Encourage overnight stays of one night or more
4. Obtain the necessary ABC permits, law enforcement approval, city permits, safety
guidelines, and any additional documents needed for the event
5. Provide a detailed event budget and marketing plan
6. Provide post-event metrics which show positive effect on Atascadero tourism
In addition to these requirements, ATBID Board will consider the following factors:
1. Does event support Visit Atascadero objectives?
2. Will event be held during off-season (January – March)?
3. Is event new or existing? If existing, how was previously awarded money spent?
4. What is the three-year growth plan for the event?
5. Is there statistical data on the demographic status of your attendees or targeted
attendees?
6. Can the organization prove complete fiduciary responsibility of all event expenses?
7. Do your event organizers and attendees garner influence and have the ability to
promote Atascadero tourism?
Please submit application and all additional documents by email to Terrie Banish at
tbanish@atascadero.org in a PDF format. You will receive a confirmation that we have
received the application. Typically, we ask that event planners attend a Board Meeting to
present their event to the Board which provides an opportunity to ask questions. Atascadero
TBID Board Meetings are regularly scheduled for the third Wednesday of the month at 2:30
p.m. at City Hall. The vote regarding funding often takes place at the meeting following the
event presentation.
