Tucked between a mountain range on the west and the San Francisco Bay on the east, the area provides visitors a diversity of outdoor experiences. The Santa Cruz mountains, which rise more than 3,000 feet, are home to dozens of wineries and more than 220 miles of regional trails that wind through redwood groves and open space preserves and provide panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and Silicon Valley. The Palo Alto Esther Clark Park Page 21 Baylands Nature Preserve is the largest tract of undis- Veronica Weber turbed marshland remaining in the San Francisco Bay. Visitors will find prime birdwatching and wildlife along the area’s marshland trails, as well as the opportunity to try wind surfing, kayaking, sailing or other water sports. Though downtown Palo Alto developed as a sleepy col- lege town, the emergence of Stanford University in the 1970s as the nation’s leading high-technology research center paved the way for hundreds of startup businesses. While many of the region’s famed tech headquarters are closed to the public, there are plenty of tech destinations in the region that are accessible. But at a minimum, any visit should also include a walk or drive through the tree-lined residential neighbor- hoods (among the costliest in the nation) and a stop in downtown, which includes a mix of museums, several shopping districts and a variety of dining choices. The Stanford campus itself is the biggest visitor attraction, CRU Wine Bar, Merchant & Cafe Page 30 and visitors could easily spend a day or longer explor- Michelle Le Michelle ing the beautiful campus.

  • 2015 Annual Report.Indd
    TEAM SAN JOSE ANNUAL REPORT 2015 FROM OUR LEADERSHIP Dear Friends and Colleagues, It was a great year for San Jose and for Team San Jose. The team welcomed 1.49 million visitors to our managed facilities, generating over $134.9 million in direct spending to the local economy and earning $9.9 million in gross operating profit. In June 2015, Team San Jose exceeded our fiscal 2014-15 performance measures by 24%, marking the fourth consecutive year we have met or exceeded our goals. Strong hotel performance and solid growth in Transient Occupancy Tax provided the opportunity to expand our positioning as a premiere travel destination for business and meetings, as well as leisure travel. In the last year, to lead this new charge and foster our growing global identity, we launched a redesigned visitor-centric web experience at sanjose.org and enhanced our consumer social media presence. We also began working with Visit California in new ways for international promotion and crafted a brand partnership with CONTENT magazine for our first digital consumer newsletter. We worked closely with our stakeholders and cultural partners to welcome the world to the Bay Area for Super Bowl 50. As one of the world’s most important sporting events, the weeklong festivity attracted over a million visitors to the Bay Area and hundreds of millions of consumers via multiple media platforms. With the City’s Office of Economic Development, we spearheaded an inter-agency effort to ensure that our visitors had an exceptional experience and that San Jose maximized every media exposure opportunity available.

  • LIVE NATION, INC. (Exact Name of Registrant As Specified in Its Charter) Delaware 20-3247759 (State of Incorporation) (I.R.S
    20072007 ANNUALANNUAL REPORTREPORREPO T TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS We continued to demonstrate success in 2007 in executing our strategic plan. We took multiple steps to transform Live Nation into a vertically integrated live music company that directly unites artists, fans and sponsors across all revenue generating products. We are moving ahead to capitalize on our global concert platform as artists look for expanded and new business partners. Reaching an agreement in principle with U2 for a 12-year exclusive partnership is another signifi cant validation that Live Nation is the most attractive option for the biggest artists in the world. Madonna, and now U2, believe in Live Nation and our promising future as a highly innovative music company that is responding quickly to changes in the music business landscape. As a result, we believe Live Nation is a signifi cantly stronger organization, strategically and fi nancially, than only one year ago. Over the next year, we will continue to build on our three core strategies: • Grow our global concert platform internally • Prepare to launch our global ticketing, online business in 2009 • Continue to enter relationships with touring artists for longer and wider product lines centered around our core concert business When we launched Live Nation in December 2005, the company had been declining in overall profi tability for the previous few years. We set out to stop the decline and turn Live Nation into a growth company by running our core business better and by expanding into new revenue streams. In 2007, we set out to do four main things, all of which we achieved – to improve our North American Music operations, grow our International Music platform, launch the Live Nation Artist division and defi ne our Ticketing/ Online future.

    _____________________________________________________________________________ To: Vallco Property Owner, LLC Attn: Reed Moulds, Managing Director From: The Concord Group Date: June 1st, 2018 Re: Analysis of Cost Reductions Associated with Reduced Retail in Vallco Town Center Project ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Vallco Property Owner, LLC (“VPO”) is pursuing the redevelopment of the Vallco Shopping Center in Cupertino, California (the “Site”) and on March 27th of this year submitted a mixed-use project known as “Vallco Town Center”. As part of that application, VPO has requested a “concession” under the State Density Bonus Law to allow the project to include 400,000 square feet of retail, rather than the normally required amount of 600,000 square feet. In order to qualify under the law, a concession must result in identifiable and actual cost reductions. The purposes of this report is to document the cost reductions that will be achieved by building 400,000 square feet of retail instead of 600,000 square feet. Our analysis was focused on: 1. Identifying the ideal, market-driven scale of retail development on the site, and; 2. Comparing key metrics regarding costs, feasibility and market risks/opportunities of the 400,000 square feet of retail included in the Vallco Town Center plan versus the 600,000 square feet of retail specified in the General Plan for the Site. The following memorandum and technical appendix exhibits attached outline The Concord Group’s (“TCG”) findings and conclusions: Market Feasibility Analysis, Depth of Demand and the Changing Nature of Retail Market Areas: For all retail product, the Retail Trade Area ("RTA"), represents the geographic source of competitive supply.

    OPERATIONAL INTELLIGENCE CENTER LAW ENFORCEMENT SUMMIT AUGUST 25 & 26, 2019 INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA OIC / LAW ENFORCEMENT SUMMIT OVERVIEW As part of Simon’s commitment to developing strong public/private relationships with our centers and local law enforcement, we have organized numerous conferences across the country over the past decade. For 2019, we will be hosting a two-day conference in Indianapolis, bringing together law enforcement executives, mall management teams and security directors from 73 premiere properties throughout the Simon Malls, Mills, and Premium Outlets portfolio.
