Echo denied TRT grant In a rare move, the Park City Chamber/Bureau denied a request from the Echo Community Historical Organization for $5,000 in Transient Room Tax to improve a historic school in the town. "They sent us a letter denying it," Echo resident Frank Cattelan said. The denial came in the wake of the Summit County Commission instructing the County Auditor's Office to inquire into how Echo officials have spent past TRT grants. "I would like to see us havesome kind of accountability there," Summit County Commissioner Ken' Woolstenhulme said. Each year, the Chamber/Bureau receives roughly' 90 percent of the county's Transient Room Tax revenue. But two annual granting cycles allow the Chamber to award smaller non-profit organizations grants of up to $5,000. TRT is generated by a portion of sales tax on lodging rentals in Summit County.
