Yes or no to citywide lodging tax?
June 19, 2007 - 2:58pm — FAdams
The Chanhassen Area Chamber of Commerce and Visitors Bureau proposes that the City of Chanhassen adopt a citywide lodging tax of 3 percent. Of the gross process from this tax, 95 percent would be used to fund "a local convention or tourism bureau for the purpose of marketing and promoting," as required by Minnesota Stature 469.190, which authorizes cities to "impose a tax on the gross receipts of the furnishings of certain lodgings." The Chanhassen Chamber would be willing and able to receive the funds and carry out activities to advance the economic impact of tourism in the Chanhassen area. 5 percent would be retained by the City for administrative purposes. Do you think it's a good idea to impose a lodging tax in Chanhassen, in order to promote tourism? Is there a better way to promote tourism than to impose a tax on hotels? Given the rising price of gasoline, do you think tourism will continue to be an economic boon to communities? Are you planning your summer vacation based, in part, on gasoline taxes?
