(b) Revenue derived from the tax authorized by this chapter shall be expended in a
manner directly enhancing and promoting tourism and the convention and hotel industry
as permitted by Subsection (a). That revenue may not be used for the general
revenue purposes or general governmental operations of a municipality.
(c) The governing body of a municipality by contract may delegate to a person,
including another governmental entity or a private organization, the management or
supervision of programs and activities funded with revenue from the tax authorized by
this chapter. The governing body in writing shall approve in advance the annual budget
of the person to which it delegates those functions and shall require the person to make
periodic reports to the governing body at least quarterly listing the expenditures made
by the person with revenue from the tax authorized by this chapter. The person must
maintain revenue provided from the tax authorized by this chapter in a separate account
established for that purpose and may not commingle that revenue with any other
money. The municipality may not delegate to any person the management or
supervision of its convention and visitors programs and activities funded with revenue
from the tax authorized by this chapter other than by contract as provided by this
subsection. The approval by the governing body of the municipality of the annual
budget of the person to whom the governing body delegates those functions creates a
fiduciary duty in the person with respect to the revenue provided by the tax authorized
by this chapter.
(d) A person with whom a municipality contracts under this section to conduct an
activity authorized by this section shall maintain complete and accurate financial records
of each expenditure of hotel occupancy tax revenue made by the person and, on
request of the governing body of the municipality or other person, shall make the
records available for inspection and review
to the governing body or other person.
(e) Hotel occupancy tax revenue spent for a purpose authorized by this section may be
spent for day-to-day operations, supplies, salaries, office rental, travel expenses, and
other administrative costs only if those administrative costs are incurred directly in the
promotion and servicing expenditures authorized under Section 351.101(a). If a
municipal or other public or private entity that conducts an activity authorized under this
section conducts other activities that are not authorized under this section, the portion of
the total administrative costs of the entity for which hotel occupancy tax revenue may be
used may not exceed the portion of those administrative costs actually incurred in
conducting the authorized activities.
(f) Municipal hotel occupancy tax revenue may not be spent for travel for a person to
attend an event or conduct an activity the primary purpose of which is not directly
related to the promotion of tourism and the convention and hotel industry or the
performance of the person's job in an efficient and professional manner.

(g) Nothing in this section shall prohibit any private entity, person, or organization from
making subgrants by contract to any other person, entity, or private organization for
expenditures under Section 351.101(a)(4). A subgrantee shall:
(1) at least annually make periodic reports to the governing body of its
expenditures from the tax authorized by this chapter; and
(2) make records of these expenditures available for review to the
governing body or other person.
