Pierce County is seeking volunteers to apply for a seat on a committee that recommends how to spend tax revenues dedicated to promoting tourism.
If selected, the volunteer would serve a four-year term on the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee, which meets several times a year to make a recommendation to the County Executive and County Council regarding the allocation of taxes collected by the excise tax on lodging.
The committee seeks volunteers who represent an agency, organization or group that is qualified to use the taxes collected to promote tourism in unincorporated Pierce County.
To apply, individuals should complete the application form, which can be found at www.piercecountywa.org/lodging. The application should be submitted to the Pierce County Economic Development Department, 950 Pacific Ave., Suite 720, Tacoma, WA 98402.
