Lodging Tax Advisory Committee discusses program requirements; amends minutes and excuses absent member

The Lodging Tax Advisory Committee met March 11, 2026, in the Aspen Room. The committee excused Janet Kenefsky, amended prior minutes to correct a name, and received a contracts status update (all contracts issued except Oktoberfest, pending an updated budget). Staff reviewed historical program requirements and the committee discussed potential updates to standards and criteria (including grant thresholds, sustainability criteria, and funding events outside city limits) but made no formal policy changes. The Queer Community Network withdrew its revised application. Staff outlined the year’s work plan and ongoing recruitment for two members.
