Tourism Grant and Loan Program
The Tourism Grant Program is funded by the 4% Lodging Facility Use Tax; commonly known as the “Bed Tax.” Enacted by the 1987 Legislature, the Bed Tax is collected from guests of hotels, motels, bed and breakfasts, guest ranches, resorts, short-term vacation rentals, and campgrounds.
