The Newberg Transient Lodging Tax (TLT) Ad Hoc Committee was formed on December 5, 2016 by the Mayor with the consent of the Newberg City Council. The purpose of the TLT Ad Hoc Committee is to implement the Newberg Strategic Tourism Plan adopted by the City Council in June 2016. The TLT Ad Hoc Committee consists of thirteen members and two Ex Officio members. The role of the TLT Ad Hoc Committee is to solicit for tourism related facility projects, review proposals and make recommendations to the Newberg City Council, along with making recommendations on the Small Grant Program to the City Council. Funds for tourist related facilities and the Small Grant Program come from the Transient Lodging Tax collected from lodging operators within the City of Newberg.

The TLT Ad Hoc Committee meets on the first Wednesday of every month at 4:00 PM at Newberg City Hall. 

The TLT Ad Hoc Committee was disbanded on January 31, 2019 due to the formation of Visit Newberg, a private organization, on January 30, 2019. Visit Newberg's focus will be on toursim marketing for the Newberg area.
