(AJC) — The Georgia Department of Economic Development, which has successfully lured Hollywood to shoot films in the state over the past few years,” may soon have to cut back its marketing budget.
Leaders with the department said Thursday that the state has asked them to cut the budget by as much as 8 percent in fiscal 2011, which began July 1, and as much as 10 percent the following year.
That may mean fewer reminders to people around the globe that Georgia is the Peach State or less advertising luring domestic travelers to Vidalia to sample the city’s onions.
