LTAC Positions Open

Town accepting applications for open positions on Lodging Tax Advisory Committee.

The Town of Friday Harbor is seeking individuals to fill two positions on the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC). Committee members advise the Town Council on distribution of a portion of the funds received from the two percent Hotel Motel excise tax. Three-year terms for each volunteer position commence May 1, 2017. One of the open positions must be filled by the owner of a business in town that collects the Hotel Motel tax.

The LTAC was established in June 2001 with the Town Council’s appointment of seven volunteers including two Council members. LTAC members review proposals from the public requesting funds to promote tourism and tourist activities within the town of Friday Harbor. The LTAC’s allocation recommendations are forwarded to the Council which then makes the final determination of any fund disbursement.

Interested individuals with experience, background or involvement in lodging, tourism or local business should provide a Letter of Interest to Mayor Carrie Lacher. Applicants are encouraged to include a brief resume. Application review will continue until the positions are filled.

Questions and application letter should be directed to:

Town of Friday Harbor, ATTN: Julie Greene
