I have a few concerns about how the county is managing this Special Fund. The Board of County Commissioners have appointed six people to serve on the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee. Two of these members head up the North Mason and Shelton Chambers of Commerce.
One member of this advisory committee not only reviews and votes for projects that he submits but he also gets reimbursed for a portion of his salary from this same fund. It gets worse. He also approves the request for reimbursement of his salary.
I see a real potential for conflict of interest.
More on this committee later.
