Transient Room Tax Collections were up 17% during the
First Three Quarters Last Year
Last year, the Transient Room Tax in Summit County
may have generated about $3.5 million.
Room tax revenue collected for
the first three quarters of 2010 jumped about 17 percent from the year
before, an increase of roughly $450,000, said Bill Malone, executive
director of the Park City Chamber/Bureau.
"All three quarters were
up," Malone said.
In Summit County, the Transient Room Tax is
charged to those who rent nightly lodging.
"We're still
significantly down from 2007," Malone said. "At our height we were close
to $5 million."
Much of the revenue the Transient Room Tax
generates gets spent promoting tourism in Summit County. NBC affiliates
in New York City, Los Angeles and San Diego currently have hundreds of
television advertisements that tout skiing in the Park City area.
Since
2009, hotel occupancy rates have increased in the Park City area,
according to Malone.
"We seem to be up in terms of bookings It
bodes very, very well in terms of occupancy," Malone said. "We
experienced double-digit occupancy increases during the holidays."
But
lodging rates remain low, he said.
"It's a great time to be a
consumer looking for a room in Summit County," Malone said. "It's a
tough time to be in the lodging business."
Park City is also
improving in terms of the number of international visitors.
Malone
said more travelers are coming to Summit County from New Zealand and
Spain.
"We're tracking very well in terms of sales this year for
international," Malone said.
