The City of Revelstoke has been a resort municipality since 2007. It is one of fourteen designated Resort Municipalities in the Province of British Columbia; and receives funding from the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture to develop recreational and tourism infrastructure.

To access the RMI funding the City of Revelstoke needs to have a current Resort Development Strategy (RDS) that covers the funding period. This document outlines the community vision and goals for tourism, as well as the projects that will be funded by the RMI program to support provincial tourism outcomes. These outcomes include:

• Extend or diversify the community’s tourism season
• Increase visitation
• Improve the sustainability of the tourism sector
• Enhance the visitor experience
