RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move to reappoint Larry Lambert and Carl Solvie to the Bozeman Tourism Business Improvement District Board of Trustees with updated terms expiring

BACKGROUND: The Bozeman Tourism Business Improvement District Board of Trustees has two terms which expired July 31st, 2015. The members with expired terms have reapplied. No new applications have been received.
In August, 2009 the City Commission created the BTBID Board to manage the newly created
District (Cht. 2.90, BMC). The mission of the Board is to promote tourism that generates room nights for lodging facilities in the city of Bozeman by effectively marketing the region as a preferred travel destination. BTBID members are appointed to four year terms. Board appointees
must either be a property owner within the District or the duly authorized designee of an owner
of property within the District.
The Bozeman Tourism Business Improvement District Board of Trustees currently has one expired term and one reapplying applicant.
