The new Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) to oversee marketing, promotion, and visitor services in Prince Edward County will be the focus of a special Council meeting on Thursday, April 14 beginning at 7 pm.
The staff report on the agenda includes a draft by-law that would frame the scope of the new DMO and give direction on the roles and selection of the inaugural Board of Directors.
The recommendations in the staff report are informed by feedback from a wide variety of stakeholders as well as industry best practices.
