Regarding #13 in George's notes:

Kathy and Mr. Cutler:  TAC does indeed poll lodging, restaurants and
retailers to determine what happens during TAC-sponsored events.  We on the
Commission continue to refine our information-gathering procedures so that
we can get the most accurate readings possible.  The point of the exercise
is to bring people to town; once they are here, we expect that they will at
least eat and sleep.  It is harder to poll retail spending, but when there
is a significant increase, such as happened during Plein Air and Spring
Unveiling, it definitely shows up on retailers' radar.  

What is the impulse behind this statement?  Is there some doubt that the
TAC funds are being spent wisely?  If so, say so and let the Commission
know how you would like to see them spent.  

Valerie Ryan, TAC member
