Paper applications can be provided upon request. A separate application must be submitted for each project/grant request. All applications must include: x Estimates of how funding the activity will result in increases to people staying overnight, traveling 50 miles or more, or coming from another state or country. x How your project will o generate economic benefit through overnight lodging, sale of meals and goods, and/or construction of tourism-related facilities. o increase recognition of Renton throughout the region as a destination for tourism. o increase opportunities for tourism by developing new visitor activities. If you request it from them, local hoteliers will work with your organization to track information for your event or project. If you need assistance, be sure to contact them prior to submission, as priority will be given to those projects which encourage and track overnight stays. Applications must be submitted online no later than 4:30 p.m. (Pacific time) on Friday, October 18, 2024. No applications will be accepted after this deadline. Any questions concerning the application process may be directed to Jessie Kotarski, Economic Development Manager, at 425-430-7271 or jkotarski@rentonwa.gov. ~ Application Requirements & Instructions ~ City of Renton 2025 Lodging Tax Grant Guidelines General Information: x All applications will be reviewed by the City’s Lodging Tax Advisory Committee for potential funding recommendations. x If you need additional assistance with the grant process, the following information drop-in Q&A sessions will be available: o September 12, 2024: LTAC Q&A at Dock & Drink, from 4 to 6pm o October 10, 2024: LTAC Q&A virtual session, from 4 to 6pm o October 16, 2024: LTAC application assistance at the Renton Library, from 12pm to 2pm x Recommendations from the Committee will be presented for approval on December 9, 2024 at a regularly scheduled City Council meeting (pending scheduling availability); grant recipients will be notified within 30 days.

Email: licensing@rentonwa.gov or by phone 425-430-6851 SELECTION PROCESS When the application solicitation period opens, City will employ every opportunity to inform potentially eligible applicants of the funding process and its eligibility criteria. When the solicitation period closes, the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee Chair or his/her designee will review applications for completeness and eligibility. Applications will then be evaluated by the City’s Lodging Tax Advisory Committee, which will make funding recommendations to the City Council. The Council will make the final decision on project approval and funding levels. Staff will then consult with sponsors of approved projects to develop contracts and scopes of work. When the sponsors and Mayor sign the contracts, staff will notify sponsors to proceed. It is very important that applicants are aware of the following. x All contracts are reimbursement-based, i.e. the sponsor must expend funds on approved items and then seek reimbursement under terms of the governing contract. x Cost reimbursement will only be issued after the contract is signed by all parties (including the City). x The project approval process requires two key steps: a) The LTAC selection and recommendation for project approval; AND b) The Council’s approval of a spending plan. **Only eligible costs incurred after both steps of the approval process will be reimbursed for the project.** COMPETITIVE CRITERIA Because of the limited amount of funding available to support assistance requests, proposals will be evaluated on a competitive basis. Applications that meet the threshold criteria will be presented to the review panel for evaluation and scoring based on the following criteria. The Lodging Tax Advisory Committee may recommend full, partial or no funding for each project. The review panel will independently determine the level of funding for each project based on each project’s individual merit and components. A maximum of 100 points can be awarded in this area. Applications are reviewed and funding decisions are made based on a scoring rubric and specific considerations. The key categories and their score ranges are as follows: x Project Impact (25 points): Evaluates how the City of Renton and its citizens will be impacted by the project. x Clarity (20 points): Assesses if the proposal clearly presents a well-described product for which City assistance is sought. If applicable, it also looks at how the City-supported product will be integrated into a larger effort. x Cost-effectiveness (20 points): Examines whether the project proposes an efficient and economical use of the City’s funds. x Degree of Match (10 points): Considers the proponent's percentage of matching resources.

A direct count may also include information collected directly from businesses, such as hotels, restaurants or tour guides likely to be affected by an event. x Indirect Count:Estimate based on information related to the number of visitors such as raffle tickets sold, redeemed discount certificates, brochures handed out, police requirements for crowd control or visual estimates. x Representative Survey: Information collected directly from individual visitors / participants. A representative survey is a highly structured data collection tool, based on a defined random sample of participants, and the results can be reliably projected to the entire population attending an event and includes margin of error and confidence level. x Informal Survey: Information collected directly from individual visitors or participants in a non-random manner that is not representative of all visitors or participants. Informal survey results cannot be projected to the entire visitor population and provide a limited indicator of attendance because not all participants had an equal chance of being included in the survey. x Structured Estimate: Estimate produced by computing known information related to the event or location. For example, one jurisdiction estimated attendance by dividing the square footage of the event area by the international building code allowance for persons (3 sq. ft.). x Other:(please describe) šŠ‹„‹–͸ ‘†‰‹‰ƒšȀ‘—”‹•”‘‘–‹‘ ”ƒ–”‘‰”ƒ ‹ƒŽ‡’‘”– ‘” OVERALL ATTENDANCE Enter the total number of people predicted to attend this activity/event (this number would have been submitted on your application for funds); the actual number of people who attended this activity/event; and the method used to determine attendance. PREDICTED:# ACTUAL (ESTIMATED):# METHODOLOGY (definitions provided above): EXPLAIN TRACKING METHOD: 50+ MILES ATTENDANCE Enter the total number of people who travelled greater than 50 miles predicted to attend this activity/event (this number would have been submitted on your application for funds); the actual number of people who travelled more than 50 miles to attend this activity/event; and the method used to determine attendance. PREDICTED:# ACTUAL (ESTIMATED):# METHODOLOGY (definitions provided above): EXPLAIN TRACKING METHOD: OUT OF STATE / COUNTRY ATTENDANCE Enter the total number of people from outside the state and country predicted to attend this activity/event (this number would have been submitted on your application for funds); the actual number of people from outside the state and country who attended this activity/event; and the method used to determine attendance. PREDICTED:# ACTUAL (ESTIMATED):# METHODOLOGY (definitions provided above): EXPLAIN TRACKING METHOD: PAID FOR OVERNIGHT LODGING ATTENDANCE Enter the total number of people predicted to pay for overnight lodging in Renton to attend this activity/event (this number would have been submitted on your application for funds); the actual number of people who paid for overnight lodging and attended this activity/event; and the method used to determine attendance. PREDICTED:# ACTUAL (ESTIMATED):# METHODOLOGY (definitions provided above): EXPLAIN TRACKING METHOD: DID NOT PAY FOR OVERNIGHT LODGING ATTENDANCE Enter the total number of people predicted to attend this activity/event without paying for overnight lodging in Renton (this number would have been submitted on your application for funds); the actual number of people who attended this activity/event without paying for overnight lodging; and the method used to determine attendance. PREDICTED:# ACTUAL (ESTIMATED):# METHODOLOGY (definitions provided above): EXPLAIN TRACKING METHOD: PAID LODGING NIGHTS Enter total predicted lodging nights in Renton (this number would have been submitted on your application for funds); and actual number of paid lodging nights-(One lodging night = one or more persons occupying one room for one night); and the method used to determine attendance. PREDICTED:# ACTUAL (ESTIMATED):# METHODOLOGY (definitions provided above): EXPLAIN TRACKING METHOD: Please describe any other information that demonstrates the impact of increased tourism attributable to the special event, festival, or tourism-related facility. RENTON SPECIFIC QUESTIONS: Did you experience a higher number of tourists this year? If not, what do you think was a contributing factor? Did you complete all of the items on your Scope of Work consistent with your application submitted to the Renton Lodging Tax Advisory Committee? If not, which items do you still need to complete? Do you plan on completing those items with your own resources? If so, when? Do you plan to do anything differently next year to expand your event, increase tourism to Renton, or increase visitors to your facility?
