Lodgers Tax Board May Fund 2023 24 Events
The Tucumcari Lodgers Tax Advisory Board voted to recommend approval of all funding requests for the 2023 2024 fiscal year and will forward the list to the city commission for final action. Chair Bednorz worried about a 10500 Wheels on Fire restart request and suggested a 7000 to 8000 compromise as costs for T shirts and race needs rise. The board noted state REQUIRES half the revenue be spent within two years and that only one of three city events ran last year, leaving funds unspent.
