ATTACHMENT A
Carlsbad Golf Lodging Business Improvement District (CGLBID)
2019-2020 Report
Method of Assessment: The CGLBID includes all hotel businesses in the City of Carlsbad that have
elected to participate in the district. The assessment shall be levied on all hotel businesses, that
have elected to participate in the district, within the City of Carlsbad based upon a flat fee of $2.00
per occupied room per night for all transient occupancies as defined in section 3.12.020(7) of the
Carlsbad Municipal Code. The amount of assessment shall be separately stated from the amount
of the rent and other taxes charged, and each transient shall receive a receipt for payment from
the operator. The assessment will be remitted monthly, based on $2.00 per occupied room per
night in revenues for the previous month.
Assessment Funding Purpose: The proceeds of the CGLBI D assessment shall be spent to promote
golf-related tourism within the boundaries of the CGLBID, as well as marketing related capital
improvements such as golf-related signage, golf related equipment and to pay for related
administrative costs.
2018-19 Work Plan: The CGLBID was established in January 1, 2013. For the initial period the
district, Fiscal Year 2012-2013 (1/1/13-6/30/13) and the next fiscal year 2013-14, three hotels;
the Sheraton Carlsbad, the Park Hyatt Aviara and the Grand Pacific Palisades Hotel, opted into the
district. In 2014-15 the Carlsbad by the Sea Resort opted into the district, in 2017-18 Omni La
Costa Resort opted into the district, and in 2018~19 the Westin Carlsbad Resort opted into the
district. These six hotels are expected to collect a total of $712,000 in CGLBID Assessments in
Fiscal Year 2018-19. Each assessed business determines how to spend the funds collected by their
respective property provided the expenditures are for an approved golf related expense.
Reimbursement of these expenses are made quarterly upon approval from the advisory board up
to the amount collected per property minus administrative fees. The administrative fees pay for
the collection of assessments and administration of the district. Monies not spent by the end of
the fiscal year will carry forward to the next fiscal year.
For Fiscal Year 2019-20, the district will have six hotels. It is estimated that these six hotels will
collect a total of $733,000 in CGLBID assessments. Based on this revenue estimate, the budgeted
amount for reimbursement to the hotels is $704,000. This amount plus any carry forwards from
the previous fiscal year will be available to the assessed hotels for reimbursement. Administrative
fees for Fiscal Year 2019-20 are budgeted at $29,000, which is 4% of the revenues.
Detail of the 2019-20 budget is shown on the following page.
