SUBJECT: INTERVIEWS AND APPOINTMENTS TO THE AD HOC CITIZEN
COMMITTEE
REMARKS:
After the initial staff report was distributed on October 15, 2015, staff received the following
inquiry from a Council Member:
Please briefly describe the work of the Ad Hoe Citizen Committee.
Answer: At its September 15, 2015 meeting, the Council identified an interest in
exploring two revenue options that are subject to voter approval, an increase in the Town's
Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) and /or Utility User Tax (UUT). Staff recommended
establishing an Ad Hoc Citizen Committee to work with staff to study both of these
revenue options, including various UUTs that could be imposed. Both TOT and UUTs are
subject to voter approval and therefore the Committee will be tasked with seeking public
input, including a community survey, to assess support for an increase in TOT and/or
implementation of one or more UUTs. Finally, the Committee will report back to the
Council with a recommendation and drafted ballot language, if any, by March 2016.
