The TIC works collaboratively with the CEDC as an independent decision making body to consider, evaluate, and render decisions with respect to CEDC Tourism Development Fund applicants. The committee considers applicant proposals that will increase visitation to the City of Thunder Bay, improve Thunder Bay’s appeal as a tourist destination, extend the length of a visitor stay, enhance event and conference tourism bidding and hosting, support new product development, and communicate the importance of the tourism industry as an economic and social driver within the City of Thunder Bay.
Currently the committee meets the second Wednesday morning of every month.
To be eligible to serve on Committees or Boards, all applicants must be either a resident or owner of property in the City of Thunder Bay or directly operate a business based in Thunder Bay.
