February 28, 2019 meeting

Sawyer, Monica

Monica Sawyer heads the nonprofit organization PATCH, which has been working  to restore the Ritz Theatre since 2006.  Efforts have been made to restore the historic Ritz Theater in downtown Corpus Christi.

The City of Corpus Christi has agreed to set aside $100,000 of Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone funding in the next fiscal year. But the Ritz has to match it with its own $100,000. Fundraising efforts are underway. Join us Thursday when Ms. Sawyer updates the club on this project.

We had a fantastic meeting on Thursday with Nueces County Judge Connie Scott. She provided us with an update on the sources of funding for the Nueces County General Fund Budget and explained how those funds are utilized. Additionally, she shared insights on the current projects underway in the county. Connie's presentation was both enlightening and engaging, leaving us with a clearer understanding of the financial landscape and how it supports the community's development. We left the meeting not only with knowledge but also with a renewed sense of optimism about the future projects that promise to enhance the quality of life in Nueces County. Thank you to all the Rotarians who attended and engaged with questions! ... See MoreSee Less
