ANALYSIS: The COVID-19 Pandemic has severely reduced tourism, and thus, is also reducing lodging tax revenue to Fund 125 Hotel/Motel, that funds the County's tourism promotion activities authorized by state law. On May 26, the County Commissioners passed a motion approving the 2020 voluntary award revisions for tourism promotion activities as recommended by the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee, including earmarking the 2020 reductions by each tourism promotion organization for potential use in 2021 by the same organization. However, several organizations already had executed contracts for 2020 before being approached about voluntarily offering to make reductions. The proposed Amendment implements the reduction in funding in 2020 for the Quilcene Historical Museum, and earmarks the dollars reduced for potential use in 2021, subject to a future recommendation by the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee subject to approval by the Commissioners. FISCAL IMPACT: An original allocation to the Quilcene Historical Museum of $44,430 in Hotel - Motel funds to promote Jefferson County tourism has voluntarily been reduced to $33,215 in 2020. The $11,215 reduction is earmarked for potential use by the Quilcene Historical Museum to promote Jefferson County in 2021, contingent on a recommendation by the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee to award those funds to the Quilcene Historical Museum in 2021 and approval by the Board of County Commissioners.
