Hotels (as that term is defined in Carlsbad Municipal Code § 3.12.020(1)) that choose to opt in and be a part of this district are assessed $2 per occupied room night which is remitted to the city monthly through the current Transient Occupancy Tax collection process. The proceeds of the additional hotel business assessment shall be used 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 the related administrative costs. Each assessed hotel would determine how to spend the funds collected by their respective property provided the expenditures are for an approved golf related expense. Reimbursement of these expenses would be made quarterly upon approval by the CGLBID Board up to the amount collected per property minus administrative fees.
