DATE RECORD OF COUNCIL ACTION 11/16/15 MTG. DATE ATTACHMENTS 11/16/15 Informational memo to Council, dated October 22, 2015. City of Tukwila Jim Haggerton, Mayor TO: City Council ,/_ ,. .14_� FROM: Jim Haggerton, Mayor BY: Brandon Miles, Econftic Development Liaison Cheryl Thompson, Executive Assistant DATE: October 22, 2015 SUBJECT: 2016 Lodging Tax Advisory Committee ISSUE I am recommending that the City Council reappoint three existing members and appoint five new members to the City's Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC). BACKGROUND The City imposes a 1% lodging tax on the certain overnight stays at area hotels and motels. In 2015, the City's budget estimated that the City will receive approximately $600,000 in lodging tax funds. Under Washington State law, lodging tax proceeds can only be used for tourism promotion (overnight and day visitors) and other tourism related activities (RCW 67.28.1816). In order to collect the lodging tax and spend the funds collected, the City is required by State Law to have a Lodging Tax Advisory Committee. The Committee makes recommendations to the City Council on any request to use lodging funds, including requests by the City. The City Council can accept or reject any of the LTAC recommendations. However, the City Council cannot change the specific funding amounts recommended by the LTAC. The City's LTAC has nine members. Four of the members are representatives of businesses that are required to collect the tax (hoteliers), four are persons involved in activities authorized to be funded by the tax (non- hoteliers); and one member is a City elected official who serves as the LTAC chair. Historically, the Council President has served as the City's elected official on the LTAC. State Law requires that the City Council, "review the membership of the advisory committee annually and make changes as appropriate (RCW 67.28.1817)." This annual review requirement is also found in City Council Resolution # 1533. DISCUSSION In order to meet the requirements of State Law and the City Council's adopted resolution, I am recommending that the following individuals be reappointed to the LTAC to continue to serve through 2016. 1 am also recommending five new appointments to the Committee, copies of the applications for the new appointments are attached for your ease of reference. 3 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 Position Name Note Position #1 Elected Typically the Council President selected Official at the first Council Meeting in January.
