To permit the county commission to appoint a county commissioner to a convention and visitor’s bureau as a voting member

Signed into LawFiled Feb 3, 2026
Sponsor: David Cannon (R)
Latest Action

Chapter 165, Acts, Regular Session, 2026

Jun 29, 2026

Summary

The measure lets each county commission appoint one of its own commissioners to sit as a voting board member of the county’s convention and visitor’s bureau, and gives the same option to each county involved in a multi‑county bureau. It leaves in place the existing reporting, budgeting, marketing and audit rules that bureaus must follow to receive hotel occupancy tax money. The change is intended to give elected local officials a direct voice in tourism promotion decisions.
