Members of the Fall River City Council's Committee on Tourism and Economic Development are again urging the Coogan Administration to create and fund a Tourism Director. 

The subject has been debated in the Flanagan, Sutter and Correia Administrations; it was funded in a pair of Flanagan Municipal Budgets but the money was ultimately used for other things. 

The City oF Fall River will also unveil a new website at some point this year that its hoped will sell tourism to a world-wide audience.
