RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2012-065 approving the refund to Motel 6 of CTBID assessments in the
amount of $12,135.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
In June 2011, the City of Carlsbad received a request for refund from Motel 6 for Carlsbad Tourism
Business Improvement District (CTBID) assessments paid in error. Motel 6 filed amended returns going
back three years which resulted in a refund due of $12,135. These returns were audited by City staff to
verify the amount due.
The refund request was presented to the CTBID Board at its January 25^*^ meeting and the CTBID Board
recommends that the City Council approve the refund of $12,135 to Motel 6.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The CTBID fund has adequate funds in reserves to refund the $12,135.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The proposed approval ofthe annual report does not qualify as a "project" underthe California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per State CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 as it does not result in a
direct or reasonable foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
EXHIBITS:
