About:

The Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC) oversees the LTAC grant program which is related to tourism development and promotion and made possible through taxes paid by consumers when they stay in paid lodging in the City of DuPont.  LTAC grants are available to convention, visitor's bureaus, destination marketing organizations, non-profits and municipalities. The committee reviews LTAC grant applications and recommends grant awards to the City Council for approval.
