BACKGROUND
On November 7, 2019 the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee met and considered a proposal from Council Member Wallin to update the membership of the committee to reflect equal representation from the Board of Directors of the Brighton Economic Development Corporation and the Brighton Cultural Arts Committee. This make-up reflects the current make-up of the committee as both current at-large members are also members of the Brighton Cultural Arts Commission. The committee wished to preserve its current state as business has been conducted especially efficiently and to the satisfaction of all affiliated groups involved over the past two years.
