AGENCY: Five County Association of Governments (Utah)

SERIES: 22538
TITLE: Color Country Travel Region board minutes
DATES: 1975-1999.
ARRANGEMENT: Chronological by month

DESCRIPTION: These minutes constitute a record of the Color Country Travel Region board's actions. The Board existed to promote tourism in the southwestern Utah counties of Beaver, Garfield, Iron, Kane (until it dropped out in 1997), and Washington. Minutes include actions taken at monthly board meetings; reports on committee activities; and associated memoranda, travel statistics, copies of press releases and other publicity, and budget materials.

As of 1998, the Utah Association of Travel Regions consisted of nine independent destination marketing organizations. Each region is organized by individual counties under the legal auspices of interlocal agreements between county governing bodies; there is no legal or financial regulation between the Travel Regions and the state Travel Council. The Color Country Region operated under the Five County Association of Governments from its creation in about 1975 until it was disbanded December 31, 1999 for budgetary reasons when the individual counties no longer wished to make contributions from their transient room tax funds and voted to disband the travel region.
