2 SOUTH CAROLINA ACCOMMODATIONS TAX OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE TOURISM EXPENDITURE REVIEW COMMITTEE The Legislative Accommodations Tax Oversight Committee was abolished effective June 10, During the 2001 Legislative Session, Senate Bill 349 was signed into law by the Governor, effective July 18, This bill amended the Accommodations Tax statute. It establishes an eleven member Tourism Expenditure Review Committee, provides for withholding funds for misappropriated expenditures, and provides for penalties for failure to file annual reports on time. This committee serves as the oversight authority on all questionable tourism related expenditures. 2

3 REPORTING REQUIREMENTS Among the requirements of the Accommodations Tax Law is the requirement that local municipal and county governments covered by the tourism provisions of this Act, and regional tourism agencies covered by this Act, shall submit annual reports. In order to advise the affected local governments of the reporting requirements, the local governments were sent a packet of information that included copies of Guidelines on the Act, the amended Accommodations Tax Act, an Accommodations Tax Reporting Form for reporting of Accommodations Tax dollars and a local Advisory Committee membership Form. The eleven tourism regions were also sent a separate reporting form. The Accommodations Tax Reporting Form, the Advisory Committee Membership Form, and the Tourism Region Form were due by November 1 st, 2008, a special one month extension over the typical due date of October 1 st due to the movement to online reporting. This information was not only sent to local government officials and tourism regions but was also sent to advisory committee chairpersons, chambers of commerce, and others interested in the expenditure of A Tax revenue. REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE REPORTS SUBMITTED BY LOCAL GOVERNMENTS Revenue and expenditure information submitted by local governments have been compiled in order to provide an overall accounting of how the statewide 2% accommodations tax revenues have been allocated and spent. Due to the fact that not all local government budgets are on the state s fiscal year, July-June, total annual reported revenues could vary from figures provided by the State Treasurer s Office. Expenditures may vary as well, due to the use of carry-forward funds, interest earnings, etc. The information on the following pages includes explanations of the various tables and graphs included in this report. These represent the revenues and expenditures as reported by the local governments. Responses to the Tourism Region Form are not compiled in this report. 3
