(For example, if there was a survey conducted for the prior year, explain the methodology. For the projections, <br />what are they based upon and how is that basis justified?) <br />Prior Year Paid <br />Overnight's Stay <br />Response* <br />Prior Year Paid <br />Overnight Stay Data <br />As mentioned before, determining overnight stays in extremely difficult in Roslyn <br />since we have very few overnight options in town - a few vacation rentals, one bed <br />and breakfast and a four-bedroom inn. <br />What we do is look at the number of people who come to the Framers Market (an <br />average of 3,300 adults) and estimate that at least half of those people came from <br />a distance away. Roslyn only has 890 inhabitants -including children . So of those <br />1,650 it is logical to speculate that at least 400 people (whoa re couples) stayed <br />the night in Cle Elum or in one of the many campgrounds. <br />We 1MJuld like to be more specific . n our 2017 grant application, RTown requested <br />$1 ,000 in funds to purchase or lease tools that 1MJuld allow us to calculate tourist <br />visits , especially those who stayed overnight. Commissioner Jewell declined that <br />budget item because the county intended to purchase or develop a tool to <br />measure visitors related to tourism. He said that \Mluld be available to RTown for <br />the Art Festival. A survey tool from the County has not yet become available, but <br />such a tool IMlUld be very useful. <br />2500 character lirrit <br />In add~ion to field above, you rmy upload the evidence to support the prior years' room'night inforrmtion. <br />You rmy upload up to three single pages (US Letter), of inforrmtion.
