The City of Shelton is now accepting applications for tourism funding grants, allocated through the City’s lodging tax fund.

Applications and grant criteria are available on our website at sheltonwa.gov/LodgingTax. The grant application period is from Monday, August 17 to Tuesday, September 8 (5:00 p.m.). Completed applications can be turned in electronically to Administrative Support Assistant Giselle Tomich at [email protected].

The City’s Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC) will review applications before submitting its recommendations to City Council. 

The City collects a 4% tax on lodging within Shelton city limits, which is dedicated to promoting tourism, supporting the operations of tourism-related facilities and activities, and general operations of special events and festivals designed to attract visitors to Shelton.

Questions about tourism grants or the LTAC can be directed to Administrative Support Assistant Giselle Tomich at 360-432-5114 or [email protected].
