Letter: Anaheim doesn’t have a subsidy problem

While we welcome commentary on our city, a recent editorial was misleading (“Oversight of Visit Anaheim is wise, but the city should just scrap all subsidies instead,” Dec. 26).
The editorial used our recent discussion of tourism marketing oversight to bring out a well-worn trope about “subsidies.”
Problem is, there are no subsidies in Anaheim’s tourism marketing. It’s just the opposite — hotels tax themselves to fund tourism marketing by Visit Anaheim.
