Legislative Issues
Travel and tourism is a very important industry to the economy and quality of life in our country. This is recognized by government at all levels - federal down to local government. Obviously, there are both government regulations and government programs that impact our industry. We plan on using this section to update our partners on some of the legislative issues that bear on tourism. Check on any of the items below to review the issues. In many cases we simply link you to the site itself.
Another important bit of information is for you to know "who is who" in terms of our elected officials. By clicking
here, you can view up-to-date contact information for the elected officials that you may wish to contact.
On occasion, the Board of Directors of Finger Lakes Visitors Connection has taken a position on some subjects.
Click here to view those position statements or policies that the board has adopted.
We'd really appreciate your
feedback about this section, in particular if there is an issue that you think is impacting your tourism related organization and you think others should know about it.

Trivia From an article appearing in the Finger Lakes Times, "Bristol Harbour is one of the premier courses in the area. The tees are in immaculate condition, the fairways are expertly manicured and the greens are simply perfect, stopping the well-struck shot on a dime…No matter how you look at it…is one of the best golf courses the Finger Lakes has to offer." |
