Responsibilities

In 1987 the Kansas Legislature formed the Council on Travel and Tourism. The duties of the Council are to:

Report to Kansas Dept of Wildlife Parks and Tourism information for preparation of the annual budget for the division of Tourism.
Identify and review tourism-related issues and current state policies and programs which directly or indirectly affect tourism in the state.
Recommend the adoption of new, or the modification of existing, policies and programs, as needed.

The Friday, November 6, 2020 meeting will be held virtually. The meeting will begin at 9 AM Central Time. There will be a time set aside on the agenda for public comment. Public comments may be submitted in advance to bridgette.jobe@ks.gov or during the meeting through “raising your hand” in the chat window. Each person providing public comment will be limited to 3 minutes.
