SUMMARY
Since 2000, the Economic Development Division within the City of Hayward has provided financial support to special events that take place in the community. As the success of these events continues and new events are added each year, the financial support requested also has continued to increase. Due to the number of events and requests being made, and the limited resources available in the General Fund, City staff is recommending implementing new City of Hayward Special Event Support and Grant Program Guidelines.
