Natchez aldermen reviewing applicants for city tourism board

NATCHEZ, Miss. –The mayor and aldermen on Thursday will interview applicants wanting to serve on the Natchez Convention Promotion Commission to fill three vacancies on the tourism development board. 

 Lance Harris, Helen Moss Smith and another member “are ready to step down” after several years on the six-seat board, said Mayor Dan Gibson.

 Six people have submitted resumes to serve on the commission, which is appointed by aldermen but is an independent municipal agency. It determines how to spend the city’s tourism tax revenues to market the city. It also oversees Visit Natchez, the city’s tourism agency with a staff of five.
