The Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) was established in 1965 and is currently charged at a rate of 12% for accommodations at lodging and camping facilities in the unincorporated areas of the county. The Community Investment Fund Program utilizes a portion of the TOT to encourage tourism, economic development, community engagement, and community services through a variety of grant award and funding avenues.
The Program provides various grants to community non-profits for local events that will support businesses or enhance culture, and organizations that provide a benefit to the community. Additionally, the program provides grants to address impacts on safety due to tourism.
The Program also provides funding to the Regional Parks Department , Economic Development Collaborative , the Strategic Initiatives Division , and a number of other county department activities. In addition, the Board of Supervisors will track and distribute the 3% Measure L increase to TOT separately.
