    This is in response to the below request made via your website. Out of respect for the request and open records laws, we compiled a great deal of information to the best of our ability in order to accommodate this request. Specifically, emails were compiled using keywords and date range filters on emails sent to, between, and from TCTDA board members or staff. These emails were reviewed with any including a reference to or discussion of promoting Transylvania County after emergency management restrictions related to COVID-19 were eased pulled for inclusion. The specific terms were “promote”, “market”, and “reopen”, with emails including any of those words being reviewed. We attempted to limit duplication as much as possible. We have also included a great deal of final copies of various items to further accommodate your request.

     

    Each attachment is identified below.
    Emails (as indicated above)
    Board Minutes – minutes from each TCT board meeting with relevant attachments
    Committee Minutes – minutes from any TCT committee meetings with relevant attachments
    E-blasts to Visitors – e-blasts sent to our visitor database
    E-blasts to Local Partners – e-blasts sent to our local partner database
    COVID-19 Web Page – versions of our COVID-19 web page
    Ads & Collateral – the limited ads and collateral from the requested time. It is worth noting that all advertising was halted on 3/15, which could occur immediately with digital, but with a time lag for print.

     

    Please reach out with any questions.

    Good afternoon Transylvania County, NC Tourism Development Authority,

     

    We’ve received a new public records request via our website for information that may be available in your office.

     

    I work for a website called Sunshine Request www.sunshinerequest.com. We built a site that makes it easier to make public records requests by filling out a simple form, and the results of any requests are posted on our site. This allows citizens to learn more about our local government, while saving staff from having to fulfill duplicate requests. If you have any questions about the project, please let me know, and I’ll be happy to answer.

     

    Please confirm receipt to let us know the request will begin processing, and if possible, please provide a rough estimate of when the request may be completed. We will plan on following up again around that time.

     

    Here are the details of the request:
