This is the second round of grant funding for 2008. The City has set aside an additional $15,000 in funds to award on a competitive basis to eligible applicants with the demonstrated ability to complete their projects by December 31, 2008.

Applications are available by contacting the Finance Department, 238 N. Olympic Ave, Arlington, WA 98223. Completed applications must be submitted by 5 p.m. February 29, 2008. Additional information is available by calling the department at (360) 403-3421.

Each proposal submitted will be considered by the Hotel/Motel Tax Advisory Committee before recommendation to the City Council for final decision.
