Lodging Tax Advisory Commission Seeks New Hotel Members
REDMOND, WA - The City of Redmond has two immediate openings to serve on the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC). A third position will be available after July 1. In alignment with the Washington state RCW 67.28.1817, the City is looking for candidates who represent a business required to collect tax under the RCW, such as people working in hotel management. Qualified candidates should have an interest in tourism-related activities.
The LTAC’s role is to advise the City Council on ways to increase tourism activities in Redmond, make recommendations on special events and matching grants, and later review the success of those completed events. The LTAC also reviews proposals from the City’s marketing consultant and proposes changes to the Tourism Promotion Program. The seven-member volunteer committee meets quarterly, or as needed. Members serve four-year terms.
To learn more about LTAC and to apply, visit redmond.gov/Commissions. Complete the application and include your resume and optional letter of interest. There is no deadline, but interested individuals are encouraged to apply by 5 p.m. on Sunday, May 5, 2024. The positions will remain open until filled.
For questions and more information, contact Jackie Lalor, economic development and tourism program administrator, at jlalor@redmond.gov or 425-556-2209.
