Section 669 - Regional travel and tourism marketing grantsThe General Assembly finds that:
(1) Effective marketing of travel and tourism destinations is best performed on a regional level.(2) The tourism business is the second largest business in the State and is predicted to grow in the future.(3) Private sector regional travel and tourism marketing associations, with the assistance of the public sector, will encourage the growth of Vermont as a travel destination.(4) A regional travel and tourism marketing association is best suited to identify the regions' strengths as well as the sectors that need greater marketing assistance. Small business will be better served by a more direct contact with a local, regional travel and tourism marketing association.Added 1995, No. 46, § 38.
