* 6/7/12 Revision for TDC Fund Redistribution
Jack Wert, Tourism Director reported that the purpose of this item, was to garner
feedback from the Coastal Advisory Committee (CAC) on the recommendations
generated by the Tourist Development Subcommittee.
The Committee's comments will be forwarded to the Tourist Development Council
(TDC) and the Board of County Commissioners (BCC)
He also presented a Slideshow "Destination Marketing Funding Proposal, Coastal
Advisory Committee, May 11, 2012 " which outlined the following
suggestions /recommendations from the TDC Subcommittee.
Suggested Reallocation of TDC Funds
1. The overall goal is to increase marketing and promotion allocation from 25% of
the total Tourist Development Tax (TDT) Revenue to 45% (that will generate $4.0
million per year for destination marketing efforts).
2. Reduce the Beach Park Facilities Annual Allocation of Category A funds from
16.67% to 6% ($2 million per year to $600, 000 per year).
3. The Collier County Museum Operating fund to be reduced after five years (FY
17) from 11 % to 0% (Any future funding would revert to the General Fund)
supplemented by the following new revenue sources:
♦ Charge admission to non - residents
♦ Apply for state, regional and national Museum grants
♦ Annual major fund raising efforts
♦ Tourism Department to direct more TDC funds to Heritage Marketing

4. Increase allocation to "Category A " Beach renourishment from 33.33% to 34%
Annually ($100k).
S. Increase the allocation to tourism administration from 11.60% to 12.60% ($13k).
Recommendations for Destination Marketing Enhancements
1. Request BCC recognizes excess TDT revenue above current year projections for
immediate use in destination marketing.
2. Extend the allocation of interest earned on each TDT fund to Fund 184 for
destination marketing for an additional three years through FY1 S
3. Aggressively pursue State and Federal cost share funding for our beach
renourishment projects through legislative lobbying and education.
4. Increase air service marketing funds by $50, 000 per year from base of $100, 000
to attract more direct service and enhance and expand existing air service
especially from U.S. West Coast.
5. Expand Community Relations efforts to encourage more local and regional media
coverage of the impact and importance of tourism to our community.
6 Tourism Dept (CVB) included as equal participant in economic development
planning for the County.
Committee discussion occurred on the pros and cons of each item.
