Dear Carlos,
The PSDRCVA Joint Powers Authority Executive Committee at its December 15, 2006 meeting
directed me to send this notification to you. By a unanimous vote, the JPA approved changing the
Authority's name to the following:
Palm Springs Desert Resort Communities
Convention and Visitors Authority
This name change requires approval from two-thirds of the City Councils. Please agendize this matter
for your next available Council meeting; announce the JPA unanimous support, and then ask for a vote
of ratification from your City Council.
Thank you for your continued support of the CVA. We look forward to a prosperous New Year.
Sincerely,
/s/
Jeff Beckelman
President/CEO
