Council approves Halifax, Southeast and West Volusia advertising budgets funded by bed tax
Summary
Three area advertising authorities presented bed‑tax funded budgets and the council approved allocations to the Halifax area, Southeast Volusia and West Volusia advertising authorities, noting lower collections and continued support for airport and event promotion.
Representatives from the Halifax area (Laurie Campbell Baker, speaker 33), Southeast Volusia (speaker 34) and West Volusia (Georgia Turner, speaker 22) described next‑year budgets funded by bed‑tax revenues that are not part of the county general fund. Presenters said collections are down and budgets were adjusted, but each authority plans continued marketing focused on airports, the Ocean Center and niche trails and events. Council approved the three budgets unanimously.
