Atascadero City Council
Staff Report – City Manager’s Office
Atascadero Tourism Business Improvement District (ATBID) Board
Appointment of Board Member to Fill Vacancy
RECOMMENDATION:
The ATBID Board recommends:
Council appoint Tianna Speth to fill the vacant ATBID Board term to expire June 30,
2017.
DISCUSSION:
In 2013, the lodging businesses in Atascadero requested the Council establish a
Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID) in order to levy annual assessments that
would fund tourism promotions and marketing programs to promote the City as a
tourism destination. The City Council did establish the Atascadero Tourism Business
Improvement District (ATBID), appointed board members, and the assessments began
June 1, 2013.
The ATBID Advisory Board is comprised of three members serving three-year terms,
and two members serving two-year terms. In August, 2016 Lindsey Ridgeway with
Springhill Suites resigned from the board, opening up a vacant position.
The Atascadero Municipal Code § 3-16.07 (b) states that membership on the ATBID
Board is limited to lodging business owners or other representatives named in writing as
an empowered designee by a lodging business owner within the ATBID area. To
sponsor a member on the ATBID Advisory Board, each lodging business must have
fully paid its ATBID assessment at the time of appointment, and remain fully paid during
the term of that representative’s membership on the Board.
In order to fill the vacant board position, the nomination process for ATBID board
members was followed. A letter was mailed out to each lodging business on September
19, 2016, notifying them of a lodging representative meeting for the purpose of making
Page 25
ITEM NUMBER: A-3
DATE: 11/08/16
nominations for the vacant ATBID Board seat. At that meeting held on October 19,
2016, lodging representatives nominated an eligible candidate and a written ballot
election was held to determine the nominee to be recommended to the City Council.
The lodging owners recommend Tianna Speth from SpringHill Suites by Marriott to fill
the vacant ATBID Board term to expire on June 30, 2017.
FISCAL IMPACT: None
ALTERNATIVES:
The Council may decide to not proceed with approval of Tianna Speth to the
Atascadero TBID Advisory Board and refer it back to the lodging owners for an alternate
recommendation.
