On November 8, 2022, the voters of Eagle County approved a lodging tax for unincorporated Eagle County (Eagle-Vail, Edwards, El Jebel, and surrounding areas) and the Town of Gypsum. A portion of those funds (10%) are to be directed towards marketing, communications, and engagement that benefit the areas subject to the lodging tax within Eagle County. The Eagle County Lodging Tax Marketing Committee is responsible for the disbursement and administration of those funds, with support from Eagle County Government.
