The Starke County Council members last week approved a $5,000 additional appropriation to pay on the contract with the Starke County Convention and Visitors Commission and the Starke County Chamber of Commerce for providing services to promote tourism.
The council members expressed concern about how the funds are being utilized and whether or not the innkeepers tax is being used to promote tourism or for operating expenses. Further, complicated discussion found that the structure of the Starke County Convention and Visitors Commission board and much of its functions need to be altered to run more smoothly and in coordination with what is expected of the board members.
The council hopes to hear of progress in the right direction in a future setting.
