Item Explanation At its November 27, 2012 meeting, the Carlsbad City Council adopted ordinance No.CS-194 forming the Carlsbad Golf Lodging Business Improvement District (CGLBID). 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 sign age, 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. At its April 17, 2013 meeting, the CGLBID Board approved a process for reimbursement. Based on this process, staff has reviewed reimbursement requests submitted by Carlsbad by the Sea, Park Hyatt Aviara, Cape Rey Hilton, Hilton Garden Inn, Cassara, Westin Carlsbad, and Sheraton Carlsbad Resort and is recommending the board approve the attached resolutions approving the reimbursement requests and authorizing staff to process the payments for the expenses up to the amount collected minus the 4% administration fees.
