LOUIS, MISSOURI, THAT IS LOCATED WITHIN THE CID'S BOUNDARIES. 0 0 539813 IN THE FISCAL YEAR 2023-2024, THE EAST LOOP COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT (CID) CONTINUED ITS DEDICATED EFFORTS TO MANAGE MAINTENANCE, SECURITY, AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT WITHIN ITS DISTRICT BOUNDARIES. THE CID'S COMMITMENT TO ENHANCING THE SAFETY, APPEARANCE, AND VITALITY OF THE AREA REMAINED STEADFAST THROUGH A SERIES OF INITIATIVES.MAINTENANCE REMAINED A TOP PRIORITY, WITH REGULAR TRASH PICK-UP THREE DAYS A WEEK, ONGOING LANDSCAPING IN PUBLIC AREAS, AND THE NECESSARY UPKEEP OF THE PUBLIC PARKING LOT IN THE 5800 BLOCK OF DELMAR, WHICH IS LEASED FROM THE MISSOURI HISTORY MUSEUM. NOTABLY, THE CID COMPLETED A LANDSCAPING PROJECT TO CLEAN AND LEVEL ALL THE SIDEWALK GRATES IN THE 6100 BLOCK. THESE GRATES HAD BECOME OVERWHELMED WITH TRASH AND WEEDS OVER THE YEARS AND BECAME UNLEVEL AND UNSAFE TO WALK ON. THIS PROJECT ASSISTED WITH THE AESTHETIC AND ACCESSIBILITY FOR ALL IN THE DISTRICT. ABOUT 10 TREES WERE REPLACED IN THIS PROJECT AS WELL FOR THE SUSTAINABILITY OF THIS EFFORT.SECURITY MEASURES WERE BOLSTERED BY HIRING ADDITIONAL SECURITY OFFICERS, DOUBLING OUR SECURITY PRESENCE IN THE DISTRICT. THIS EFFORT LED TO A 40% REDUCTION OF CRIME TO DATE COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS YEAR. THE COMPREHENSIVE SECURITY PLAN CONTINUED TO INCLUDE POLICE PATROLS AND FOOT PATROLS WITH UNARMED GUARDS, THANKS TO SUPPORT FROM A GRANT PROVIDED BY WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY. WE ALSO INTRODUCED SMALL BUSINESS GRANTS FOR BUSINESSES TO PURCHASE THEIR OWN SECURITY CAMERAS. IN TERMS OF EVENTS, THE CID HOSTED A DIVERSE ARRAY OF EVENTS THAT CELEBRATED THE CULTURE, CUISINE, AND VIBRANCY OF THE DISTRICT. THE ICE CARNIVAL INCLUDED A NEW FEATURE, AN EXHILARATING DRONE SHOW, DRAWING THOUSANDS OF VISITORS TO THE AREA AND CEMENTING THE DISTRICT AS A HUB FOR ENTERTAINMENT AND INNOVATION. THE ANNUAL JUNETEENTH CELEBRATION ONCE AGAIN BROUGHT THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER TO HONOR BLACK CULTURE, ATTRACTING THOUSANDS OF ATTENDEES AND FOSTERING A SPIRIT OF UNITY AND PRIDE. SMALLER BUT EQUALLY IMPACTFUL EVENTS INCLUDED THE CINCO DE MAYO TACO CRAWL, BLACK BUSINESS MONTH PROMOTIONS, AND HOLIDAY-THEMED ACTIVITIES THAT INFUSED THE DISTRICT WITH FESTIVE ENERGY.ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES SAW SIGNIFICANT GROWTH, WITH THE EXPANSION OF THE SMALL GRANTS PROGRAM TO SUPPORT BUSINESSES IN MARKETING, SECURITY, AND WINDOW REPLACEMENT. COLLABORATIONS WITH PROPERTY OWNERS AND REAL ESTATE BROKERS RESULTED IN THE SUCCESSFUL ATTRACTION OF NEW BUSINESSES, WITH CID STAFF ACTIVELY ASSISTING THEM IN NAVIGATING PERMITTING PROCESSES AND FOSTERING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. THE TROLLEY PASSPORT PROGRAM COMPLETED ITS SECOND SUCCESSFUL YEAR, PROVIDING A UNIQUE WAY FOR VISITORS TO EXPLORE THE DISTRICT WHILE BOOSTING VISIBILITY FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES. 539813 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 5 0 1 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X SAMANTHA SMUGALA 3143393370 6150A DELMAR BOULEVARD STE 210 ST LOUIS MO 63112 JOHN LANGA MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 QUI TRAN MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 REGINALD SCOTT MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 KAREN WILEY VAILS MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 DAVE MASTIN PRESIDENT 3.00 X X 0 0 0 JOANNA SCHOOLER SECRETARY / TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 JOE EDWARDS VICE PRESIDENT 4.00 X X 0 0 0 SAMANTHA SMUGALA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 2/1/23 40.00 X 110097 0 2402 RACHELLE D'LECUYER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO 2/1/23 40.00 X 11943 0 0 122040 0 2402 1 0 0 0 0 90318 90318 4499 4499 CID ASSESSMENT 561499 563574 563574 563574 658391 563574 0 4499 121179 109061 12118 3303 2973 330 9188 8269 919 7500 7500 8055 8055 74593 74593 1534 1534 252 252 32451 21343 11108 6740 6740 SECURITY 183320 183320 PUBLIC SAFETY/MAINTENAN 67210 67210 PROMOTION OF TOURISM 28379 28379 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS 25750 25750 20963 18915 2048 590417 539813 50604 0 393341 332883 117639 246071 510980 578954 0 0 X 510980 578954 510980 578954 510980 578954 67974 0 X 1 X 0 0 0 X 106673 122629 90318 319620 526664 516182 557704 543669 563574 2707793 526664 516182 664377 666298 653892 3027413 3027413 1107 429 1536 4499 7571 3034984 0.99750 0.99890 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11B THE FORM 990 IS REVIEWED BY THE TREASURER AND A COPY OF THE FORM 990 IS PROVIDED TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS PRIOR TO FILING.
