The City of Renton’s Lodging Tax Fund is the primary source of city funding for activities, operations, and expenditures designed to increase tourism. Renton City Council has created a Lodging Tax Advisory Committee to conduct an annual process to solicit and recommend Lodging Tax funded services for City Council consideration.
The Lodging Tax Advisory Committee consists of at least five members, appointed by the City Council. At least two members must represent businesses that collect lodging taxes, and at least two members must be involved in activities funded by lodging tax revenue. One member must be an elected official of the City. The City Council reviews and appoints the membership on an annual basis, and vacancies shall be filled by the City Council.
The Lodging Tax Advisory Committee reviews and comments on any proposed imposition or increase of the lodging tax, the repeal or exemption from the tax, the use of the revenue received from the tax, or any change in the use of that revenue.
