Re: Item # 15 RESOLUTION NO. A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM forming the Anaheim
Tourism Improvement District Advisory Board
Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
I am wri?ng to you on behalf of the resort community regarding the Advisory Board for the Anaheim Tourism
Improvement District (ATID). We have carefully reviewed the staff report for this item and noted that it designates only
two spots for hoteliers on the advisory board.
The state auditor's report, however, clearly states that the advisory board should include "some" hoteliers. The term
"some" generally means more than a couple and more than a few, which typically implies a minimum of four or more.
Given this guidance, we respec?ully request that the City Council amend the resolu?on to include at least four hoteliers
on the advisory board.
Increasing the number of hoteliers will ensure be?er representa?on and a more balanced perspec?ve on the board,
which is crucial for effec?vely addressing the needs and concerns of our industry. This adjustment will also align with the
state auditor's recommenda?ons, thereby enhancing the board's compliance and legi?macy.
We appreciate your a?en?on to this ma?er. Please feel free to contact me if you have any ques?ons or require further
informa?on.
Thank you for your ?me and support.
Sincerely,
Dara Maleki
