Nevada Commission on Tourism
Description
Nevada’s tourism department is responsible for promoting and marketing Nevada as a tourism and travel destination. This includes editing, publishing and distributing publications that promote the state of Nevada. An executive director appointed by the governor directs and supervises all tourism department operations. An 11-member commission advises the tourism department.
The Nevada Commission on Tourism is composed of the lieutenant governor, who serves as chair, eight members appointed by the governor, and two ex-officio, or non-voting members: the chief administrative officers of the Las Vegas Convention & Visitors Authority and the Reno-Sparks Convention & Visitors Authority.The governor-appointed members must possess experience and professional background in the tourism, travel or hospitality industries, including gaming. The governor must appoint at least one member who resides in each of the three following locations: Clark County, Washoe County and a rural county of 18,000 or less population. The tourism operation is funded entirely by the hotel and motel room tax paid by visitors to Nevada, not by resident taxpayers. It receives three-eighths of 1 percent of the room tax as its operating budget. The publication operation is self-funded through the sale of advertising and subscriptions. Duties of the tourism department include, but are not limited to:
Developing and operating a marketing and advertising program for all domestic and international markets to attract more visitors and lengthen their stay
