The City of Washington is looking for interested residents to serve on the Hotel/Motel Tax Fund Administration Committee. This is a 9-month term to fill a resignation but has the opportunity to be reappointed for an additional three-year term. The Hotel/Motel Tax Fund Administration Committee advises the City Council on the most efficient and effective uses of revenue derived from the hotel/motel tax, including conducting long-term planning, visioning, and development of written plans to encourage tourism in Washington. The committee consists of seven members, with two designated by the Washington Chamber of Commerce, two designated by the City of Washington, and three community members mutually agreed upon by the Chamber & Council. Expected commitment includes a monthly meeting, reading materials in preparation for the meeting, and participation in continuing education for the committee. Projects like wayfinding signs, kiosks, welcome signs, and website maintenance are examples of recent projects that the Hotel Motel Committee focuses on.
