IRS990/Desc0THE DESERT DISCOVERY CENTER (DDC) WAS ESTABLISHED FOR THE PURPOSE OF PLANNING AND POSSIBLY OPERATING THE DESERT DISCOVERY CENTER. THE ORGANIZATION GREW OUT OF A GRASSROOTS GROUP OF VOLUNTEER COMMUNITY LEADERS WHO FORMED TO ADVANCE THE DDC CONCEPT BY GAUGING SUPPORT IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR. THE ORGANIZATION WAS HIRED IN JANUARY 2016 BY THE CITY OF SCOTTSDALE TO INVESTIGATE THE FEASIBILITY OF BUILDING A PROPOSED DESERT INTERPRETIVE FACILITY AT THE GATEWAY TO THE MCDOWELL SONORAN PRESERVE. DDC WAS TO CREATE A BUSINESS PLAN AND FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS, CONDUCT PUBLIC OUTREACH AND EXPLORE THE FUNDRAISING POTENTIAL OF THE PROJECT WITH THE GOAL OF OFFSETTING THE NEED FOR PUBLIC DOLLARS. THIS 18 MONTH PROJECT HAS SINCE CONCLUDED AND THE FINAL PROPOSAL WAS SUBMITTED TO THE CITY.
