The <a target="_blank" href="http://leg.wa.gov/JLARC/Pages/Lodging-Tax.aspx">2018 lodging tax expenditure reporting site</a> is open.
The 2018 lodging tax expenditure reporting site is open. Cities and towns are required to report lodging tax data yearly. This submission deadline is May 15, 2019. This is two weeks earlier than last year.
Cities and towns are encouraged to submit their information early. Joint Legislative Audit & Review Committee (JLARC) staff and AWC will be contacting cities or towns to remind them to submit the data as the deadline approaches.
Early submission allows more time for correction of data and for jurisdictions that are unable to submit online to provide the data through other means.
If you have questions or concerns, please contact JLARC at 360-786-5171 or JLARClodgingtax@leg.wa.gov.
