Room Tax Commission
Manages and allocates room tax revenues collected from lodging facilities within the city. Ensures these funds are used to promote tourism, attract visitors, and support local economic development. At least 70% of the revenue must fund tourism-related purposes such as marketing and events that drive overnight stays; the remaining funds may be used for other city needs.
