JEKYLL ISLAND AUTHORITY FY2021 Strategic Update JEKYLL ISLAND AUTHORITY FY2021 Strategic Update September 2020 JEKYLL ISLAND AUTHORITY SUMMARY In 1948 after recognizing that Jekyll Island’s natural beauty and vibrant history set it apart from any other coastal retreat, the Governor and the Georgia State Legislature established the island as a state park and entrusted its care to the Jekyll Island State Park Authority (JIA or Authority). The Jekyll Island Authority is responsible for the overall management and stewardship of Jekyll Island. While Jekyll Island is a State of Georgia Park today, it is not part of the Department of Natural Resources State Park System. Jekyll Island receives no operational appropriations from the State of Georgia and by state law must remain financially self-sufficient. Revitalization efforts that began in 2008 continue today. New hotels are being built, and long-standing island hotels are finishing significant renovations. The Convention Center continues to fill its schedule with new groups and impress its visitors daily. Bike paths, golf courses, and beaches have never looked better, and the Beach Village is alive with shops, restaurants, and visitors. During calendar year 2019, new parks and the Hilton Home2 opened. The Marriott Courtyard/Residence Inn began construction. This facility should open in June of 2021. Consequently, the Authority’s economic impact on Glynn County and the State continues to increase. A University of Georgia Impact Study in 2018 estimated the Island’s annual impact at $700 million. The demand for new housing on Jekyll Island remains strong. Since 2016, 161 new homes and townhomes have been constructed and sold on Jekyll. A new development, The Moorings at Jekyll Harbor, began construction of 48 condo units during FY2020. Over the past ten years $341 million in public/private investment on Jekyll Island has been completed or is underway, with an additional $16.1 million planned within the next two years. Throughout revitalization, the JIA has upheld the state mandated ratio of 3,920 acres (approximately 65%) undeveloped land for Jekyll Island. This pristine, beautiful, green space is enjoyed by wildlife and visitors and is a great example of the balance that can be struck between conservation and development. Even during difficult times, the revitalized Jekyll Island remains attractive to visitors. As a result of its natural setting, wide-open beaches, and drivable location, Jekyll Island has become somewhat of an oasis to persons needing an escape from the closures and stress of the COVID-19 pandemic. ANNUAL TRAFFIC COUNT 1,138,504 1,163,829 1,208,819 1,239,079 972,544 1,071,576 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 A balanced, self-sustaining operational budget is required of the Authority, and the FY21 operating budget is $27.5 million. Today the JIA has 26 departments with 160 full-time and 130 part-time employees serving approximately 860 residences and a variety of businesses - all dependent on the JIA for municipal services. These include water/sewer, roads, fire, and EMT services. JIA employees also provide approximately three million visitors annually with quality amenities including a golf club with four courses, a tennis center with 13 clay courts, miniature golf, waterpark, beach bathhouses and services, picnic areas, landscaping, signature festivals and events, park entertainment, Historic District and museum tours, the Georgia Sea Turtle Center, and campground facilities. Private contracted management partners provide the following services: ASM – convention center management , Waste Management – garbage and recycling, Circle K – gasoline/convenience center, Tortuga Jack’s, LLC – Tortuga Jack’s Restaurant, Northview Hotel Group – Jekyll Island Club Resort, and Georgia 4-H - management of Camp Jekyll. This document highlights many JIA initiatives for FY21. In addition to those highlighted, JIA departments will continue to undertake on-going operations and to execute new strategies as they are warranted. The Authority has begun implementing several recommendations of the 2018 Carrying Capacity and Infrastructure Study conducted by 2 Sand County Studios to improve infrastructure and to recommend optimal ranges of visitation throughout the Island. This study will continue to be the basis for most decisions balancing island experience and developmental issues. Of particular significance during FY21, the JIA will continue following Executive Orders and CDC Guidelines to keep employees and guests safe from the COVID-19 virus. Throughout the year, the Jekyll Island Authority cooperates extensively with many state entities, especially the Office of Planning and Budget, Department of Natural Resources, Department of Transportation, Attorney General’s Office, Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission, Public Service Commission, One Georgia Authority, State ADA Coordinators Office, the Georgia Lottery Commission, the Georgia Department of Audits and Accounts, Georgia Emergency Management Agency, and the Department of Community Affairs. The Jekyll Island Authority is especially grateful for the support of Governor Kemp, the Governor’s staff, and the State Legislature, including the Jekyll Island Legislative Oversight Committee, for their continued support of our efforts to revitalize and sustain Jekyll Island. Contact information: C. Jones Hooks, Executive Director - Jekyll Island Authority, 100 James Road, Jekyll Island, GA 31527 - [email protected], 912-635-4075 3 Jekyll Island Authority FY2021 – FY 2025 STRATEGIC PLAN (FY2021 UPDATE) Agency Mission: As stewards of Jekyll Island’s past, present and future, we are dedicated to maintaining the delicate balance between nature and humankind. Agency Vision: Through progressive stewardship and excellent customer service, Jekyll Island will be recognized as a sustainable conservation community that is the choice destination among all who experience its unique environment, service, and amenities. ENVIRONMENTAL SCAN/CHALLENGES: • Lack of convention/group business due to the pandemic • Inadequate State funding support • Completion of island revitalization • Understanding of Jekyll Island as a destination • Conventions previously committed to other Georgia cities and out-of-state locations • Increased competition for tourism dollars • Conservation of island’s natural resources • Preservation of Jekyll’s cultural and historical assets • Costs of education and research mission • Golf course improvements for profitable play • Available, quality workers • Threat of recession • Adequate financial resources for needed capital improvements • Continued escalation in employee health care costs and retirement benefits • ADA compliance throughout the island and all facilities • Coastal erosion control • Sea level rise • Glynn County taxation and property evaluations • Development/visitation pressures • Hurricanes and tropical storms • Visitation management to assure a sustainable and pleasurable experience • Convincing Georgians to experience Jekyll Island – via returning or as a first-time visitor • Retention of unskilled and semi-skilled employees The most serious environmental challenge in JIA history occurred beginning in March 2020 with the onset of the COVID-19 Pandemic. As a result of the pandemic, JIA revenues were down $1.6 million (63%) during the month of April 2020. Traffic counts at the Island entrance decreased for the month by 75,401 vehicles. Monthly occupancy at Jekyll Island hotels was only 15.1% as compared to 79.5% in April of 2019. And, 43% of the JIA work force was furloughed. Additionally, all expenses were cut in an effort to preserve financial resources. The 4th of July Fireworks display was cancelled and the Island’s largest festival, the annual Shrimp & Grits Festival, will not take place in November of 2020. The Authority cut its FY21 budget to $27.5 million compared to a budget of $30.5 million in FY2019. 4 GOAL 1 SUMMARY – CONTINUATION OF ISLAND REVITALIZATION Jekyll’s revitalization began in 2006 with proposals and plans. Revitalization has successfully updated facilities on Jekyll Island resulting in renewed interest in Island visitation among Georgians and visitors from throughout the United States and beyond. Revitalization was definitely an experiment in “if we build it, will they come?” The numbers confirm guests are indeed returning to Jekyll Island, even during the pandemic. Hotel Occupancy Rates 2016-2020 90.0% 80.0% 70.0% 60.0% 2016 50.0% 2017 40.0% 2018 30.0% 2019 OCCUPANCY PERCENTAGE OCCUPANCY 20.0% 2020 10.0% 0.0% 5 Measurable Objective 1: Achieve 100% occupancy of vacant retail facilities before end of FY21 Strategy 1: Beach Village: Engage a commercial realtor for vacant space. There is a total of 42,000 sf. of retail space in the Beach Village. Approximately 3,548 sf. of second floor space remains vacant. JIA staff has promoted and will continue to promote this space through special contacts and social postings. The services of a commercial real estate firm will now be contracted. Second Quarter FY21 Strategy 2: Historic District: Advertising campaign specifically designed to secure “experiential tenants” for the Historic District vacancies will be undertaken. There are presently two retail/commercial spaces available in the Historic District, the Historic Infirmary and a shop on Pier Road. Third Quarter FY21 Measurable Objective 2: Additional lodging choices by summer of 2021 Strategy 1: Completion of two new hotels by June of 2021. Construction of a dual-branded Marriott Courtyard (120 rooms) and Marriott Residence Inn (89 rooms)

  • Jekyll Island History
    Island History Enjoy The Unspoiled Natural Beauty Of Our Jekyll Island Resort And Club Our historic Jekyll Island resort and club is located off the Georgia coast, midway between Savannah, Georgia and Jacksonville, Florida. Situated between St. Simons Island and Cumberland Island, Jekyll is a short drive from the town of Brunswick and boasts of a salt marsh characteristic of the southeastern seaboard and a beach with the Atlantic Ocean lapping its shores. At 5,700 acres and a 33% limit on business development, Jekyll is the smallest of Georgia’s barrier islands, yet resplendent with moss draped live oaks, marshes and remote beaches with natural sand dunes and indigenous wildlife. Jekyll Island was purchased by the state of Georgia in 1947, and it became the Jekyll Island State Park. It was operated under the state park system until 1950, when it was transferred to the auspices of the Jekyll Island Authority (JIA), more able to operate as a business. The JIA board of directors is appointed by the governor of Georgia. Native American Settlement The mystique surrounding this Jekyll Island luxury resort is not limited to its reputation for being an opulent playground for the nation’s elite during the turn of the century. Jekyll Island itself is ripe with a diverse history all its own. As early as 2,500 B.C., Jekyll Island has been attracting visitors, beginning with small groups of hunter-gatherers seeking the island’s abundant natural resources. They were followed in 1540 A.D. by the Guale Indians, a tribe known for inhabiting a number of Georgia’s barrier islands.

    CHAPTER ONE Jekyll Island [SECRETS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE By Eustace ... Page 1 of 7 CHAPTER ONE Jekyll Island [SECRETS OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE By Eustace Mullins ] "The matter of a uniform discount rate was discussed and settled at Jekyll Island."--Paul M. Warburg 1 On the night of November 22, 1910, a group of newspaper reporters stood disconsolately in the railway station at Hoboken, New Jersey. They had just watched a delegation of the nation’s leading financiers leave the station on a secret mission. It would be years before they discovered what that mission was, and even then they would not understand that the history of the United States underwent a drastic change after that night in Hoboken. The delegation had left in a sealed railway car, with blinds drawn, for an undisclosed destination. They were led by Senator Nelson Aldrich, head of the National Monetary Commission. President Theodore Roosevelt had signed into law the bill creating the National Monetary Commission in 1908, after the tragic Panic of 1907 had resulted in a public outcry that the nation’s monetary system be stabilized. Aldrich had led the members of the Commission on a two-year tour of Europe, spending some three hundred thousand dollars of public money. He had not yet made a report on the results of this trip, nor had he offered any plan for banking reform. Accompanying Senator Aldrich at the Hoboken station were his private secretary, Shelton; A. Piatt Andrew, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, and Special Assistant of the National Monetary Commission; Frank Vanderlip, president of the National City Bank of New York, Henry P.

  • The Federal Reserve As a Cartelization Device 91 Only in the Two Decades Before the Civil War
    From Money in Crisis: The Federal Reserve, the Economy, and Monetary Reform, editedy by Barry N. Siegel (San Fracisco, CA: Pacific Institute for Public Policy Analysis, 1984). pp. 89-136 90 THE RECORD OF FEDERAL RESER VE POLICY sustain successful voluntary cartels. Just as other industries turned to the government to impose cartelization that could not be maintained on the market, so the banks turned to government to enable them to expand money and credit without being held back by the demands for redemption by competing banks. In short, rather than hold back the banks from their propensity to inflate credit, the new central banks were created to do precisely the opposite. Indeed, the record of the American economy under the Federal Reserve can be consid­ ered a rousing success from the point of view of the actual goals of its founders and of those who continue to sustain its power. A proper overall judgment on the actual role of the Fed was de­ livered by the vice-chairman and de facto head of the Federal Trade Commission, Edward N. Hurley. The Federal Trade Commission was Woodrow Wilson's other major Progressive reform, following closely on the passage of the Federal Reserve Act. Hurley was president of the Illinois Manufacturers Association at the time of his appoint­ ment, and his selection and subsequent performance in his new job were hailed throughout the business community. Addressing the Association of National Advertisers in December 1915, Hurley ex­ ulted that "through a period of years the government has been grad­ ually extending its machinery of helpfulness to different classes and groups upon whose prosperity depends in a large degree the pros­ perity of the country." Then came the revealing statement: The rail­ roads and shippers had the ICC, the farmers had the Agriculture Department, and the bankers had the Federal Reserve Board.
