Impact analysis
The $250,000 accommodation-tax allocation was reduced pending a tourism-impact plan.
The region's tourism and museum organizations gain a formal voice in the nation's 250th anniversary celebrations.
Communities and events hoping for accommodation-tax support may see less funding until a stronger plan emerges.
