City of Duncanville Launches Updated Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) Funds Application Process
The City of Duncanville is introducing a new and easier way to apply for Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) funds. These funds help support events and activities that bring overnight visitors to Duncanville. The updated process is designed to be simple, clear, and easy to follow.
HOT funds can be used by nonprofits, event organizers, and community partners who plan events that attract visitors who stay in Duncanville hotels. To help applicants, the City has updated its process with fillable forms, clear instructions, and a step-by-step guide to the application process.
The application period opens March 1 and closes at 4:00 PM on April 15. Applications must be complete and submitted on time to be considered. Late submissions will not be accepted. Funding is for events taking place in the next fiscal year (FY2027), October 1, 2027, to September 30, 2027.
Before applying, applicants should review the eligibility requirements and complete the Two-Step worksheet to confirm their event qualifies. A complete application packet includes the application form, a marketing plan, and a budget. All materials must be emailed to the City’s new HOT Funds contact at HOTAdmin@duncanvilletx.gov.
After applications close, City staff will review submissions between April 15 and April 30. Some applicants may be invited to interviews in May. Final funding decisions will be considered later in the summer, with budget approval expected between July and August.
HOT funds are paid as reimbursements. After an approved event is completed, recipients must submit a post-event report within 30 days. Once the report is approved, reimbursement will be issued within 30 days.
More information, including forms and templates, is available online at: https://www.duncanvilletx.gov/business/hotel_occupancy_tax.
For questions about the HOT funds program or application process, email HOTAdmin@duncanvilletx.gov or call (972) 780-5000.
